@DesmoDog should never have taken those warning stickers off.

It’s also quieter since @Six30 flounced.

The Aliexpress relay is probably the oem one without the branding.

Use a camera.

Got the cerakote samples, if I can get a reasonable price I will go this way for the fork lowers when I take them off. The blackout E series is a nice satin black and is super tough.

It always goes quiet in the winter, always has.

True, you will be long dead by then.

I don't know if it is the stock 131 crank, I know it has a straight pin whereas most standard Harley cranks use a tapered pin.

You are wrong.

The difference is that I know and you don’t.

I can think of two reasons. First is that the seat will probably be too high for you. Second is the cost of paying someone to maintain it for you, it will end up being a money pit.

I don’t think that would be a good bike for you.

Those Harley motors use pressed cranks.

They don’t, they do swap out the crank for higher power applications but there is easily a 50/50 split between S&S pressed cranks and welded cranks. You would know that if you had actual knowledge, that’s the problem with Google Ai retards, no actual knowledge.

Aye whatever, it has a toothed piece of tin on the flywheel instead of a properly machined piece. You are a stuck record. Harley will definitely win the Bagger World Cup.

I have significantly more mechanical knowledge than you, you are basically a tyre fitter that pretends to be a mechanic. A forged crank has some advantages but you still need to machine the wrist pin, I prefer fully machined flywheels. Here is the difference, the Indian crank assembly looks like it is made of Lego by comparison. Indian. Harley

All v-twin engines have a crank pin, some are welded and some are pressed, if you were a mechanic you would know that. Indian use both welded and pressed crank pins. Harley had a problem with the early oil pumps which caused sumping on the M8 and crank bearing failure. All dealt with years ago. Incidentally S&S have gone back to pressed pin cranks for all their high power applications with zero failures. Indian had a real problem with their flywheels which they get from China.
