Thanks for keeping the registry current Marty. I just resurrected my triple red again and its running better than ever. It ended up being a crank pin going out while at the Spokane GTG. I ended up flying home and coming back with my pickup and bike trailer to save the trip we had had planned to Glacier NP and the West Coast of Oregon and California. What I wouldn't do for my triple red.

That's an unusual fail on the old motors Doc.  Sorry to hear that.  How much got done for the fix?  Choose to gain anything in the process?

I had to replace the low end including crank, rods, and pistons which comes as a balanced unit from the factory. Other than that it remains as a stock 95". It could have easily been changed to a 103, but I figured everything downstream would have been stressed so chose on the side of reliability.

Hate to read the problem happened on the road; especially so far from home.  Good to read it's running again though.  These bikes are worth the appreciation and the effort.

Welcome aboard.  My Black White and Orange will be returning to the road in the spring after 2 years sleep. 

[Landshark]

Congratulations.  It is always great to see someone get exactly what they are looking for.  Your bike is really the bike that started the whole Screamin' Eagle trend.  I was in love with that bike when it came out but it took until 2004 to finally get a CVO.  I know it will bring you years and miles of pleasure.

Hey, I just joined today. I've got a 2000 BWO that I bought about 15 months ago.  The rear inner cam bearing failed while 2 up with a group in North Carolina.  It was a big ordeal getting it home, and I've been gathering funds to get it running again.  Looks like that'll start in the next couple of weeks.

Yikes!  How many miles on the bike?

That was a big issue with the early twin cam engines.  Continued well in to the 2000 model year. 

Have no idea if this is still the case and would assume it's not.  But for a time Mother Harley was offering some quiet extension of warranty service for this problem.  So many years gone now I'd not expect it.  But can't hurt to ask if such a thing is still ongoing.

Have a fuel tank, a pair of side covers and a rear fender that are redundant spares just listed in the selling section.  All stuff obsolete from Harley in case anyone else would like to pick up some spares of their own.
