As the old saying goes, “there ain't no replacement for displacement” . And in this video we show you how to add those extra cubic inches to your Milwaukee Eight powered machine. This installation will be the same for Milwaukee Eight powered Softails and touring bikes. It also doesn’t matter which displacement you're moving up to, 124”,128” or even 131” this video is the one for you and your build.

I've done it the other way as well. Push piston and ring up thru bottom of cylinder then lower it too the rod and put wrist pin n c_ clip on.
I just got a 129 big bore kit with 550 gear cam for my ‘19 SG. This video will help me big time with my install. Thanks for this great video.
Wicked vids love it, don’t forget to re torque them studs though they’ll wind out when their undone 👍🏼
Great Video, I own the exact same ring compressor. It works much better on a Harley if you flip it over so the Bottom stamped marking is "UP" its marked bottom for a car piston not a harley (on a car the piston skirt goes in cylinder first on A Harley the piston dome goes in cylinder first)
Should I go for the 131 crate engine by screamin eagle or s&s cycle 132 power kit? I use my bike for long distance touring
is going to 12 to 1 compression a problem and what other changes are needed to run correctly
I have just finished the big bore kit, I cannot find torque specs for motor mount bolts. 2017 ultralimited.
Great job Patrick. But I didn’t see ya hone the bore to get that x hatch pattern for the rings.

There’s no need. The cylinders are finished from S&S.
Is there a 2nd video finishing the kit? The top end im referring to

Especially if they are Keith Black or Wiseco pistons.
It’s common for big bore kits to use forged pistons. Why is forged preferred over hypereutectic? Hypereutectic have less thermal expansion and contraction properties and are just as capable of supporting these levels of performance
I liked ur other music better!
129 big bore...😊
can put pistons in the cylinder first then install and put in gudgeon pin? be easier?
May seem very butch but, speed limits are always being monitored by camera and radar.
