Parts to Make Your Special Places Tingle (in a good way)
« on: August 22, 2018, 11:43:53 PM »

Boxes arrived today from TMan.  Decided last winter that this was the old Road Glides last summer without a top end rebuild.  Enough miles on the bike that it's time.  Stupid (probably) to spend a ton on nearly 20 year old bike.  Love the bike so, screw it, did it anyway.

Engine has been stock as long as I've had except for small Mackie cam that went in right after I got the bike.  Whenever I get time to swap the parts this winter it won't be stock anymore.  All work built around using the TMan 625s.

Diamond cutting and powder coating.

It's a multi-stage powder coat that color shifts a little depending on light intensity and angle.  Hit it right there's even an almost pearl effect on the wider surfaces.  Thinkin' I'm going to like it a lot once installed.

Heads worked for the Harley automatic compression releases.  Just going to wire them off the starter circuit.  It's the easier option.

Paid them just a little extra not to use their standard beehives.  I know, fine nearly all the time.  Had one break years ago though.  Will avoid it when I can after that.

Turned out to be a poor angle to show.  But with the light straight on the engine parts color is a fair match to the darker Midnight Red that is the predominant color on the bike. 

Have a darker red air cleaner cover that was powder coated as a spare when I built the Road King.  If the Luxury Rich Red in the stock cover ends up not being a good complement when the parts are actually in side by side may swap air cleaner covers.

Maybe Thanksgiving break?  Some long weekend.  Hell, maybe tonight.  I don't know. 

Actually can't be tonight.  Other parts have to get here first....

Does the colored powder coating on the juggs help with cooling, heat dissipation?
