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.
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.
Really, are they going to address the rocker arm issues, the flywheel problems, the cold starting issues, fuel pump problems, just look at the forums, they are utter shite?
Just pointing out the fact they have a 76ci motor that is more powerful than the upcoming Indian 117. They can upscale it if they want to, they have the means.
Harley have a 76ci motor that puts out 150hp, if they put that in a bagger then they could easily tune it to 180hp, with an increase to say 95ci they could see 200hp.
