Well, all I can say here today is that it was a phenomenal day!!!
I still havn't had time to upload pics but I will get to it eventually.
This morning I met with the service manager (Mark Boyer), the H-D rep (Mike can't find his card to remember last name), and briefly with the owner (Tim Surdyke, Surdyke H-D) at the dealership and I can't say
enough good things about the way everything was handled!!!
The gist of it is this:
Replace Tripple Trees, both front forks, headlight bracket, front wheel spacers, mirrors, jugs, heads, inner primary, (with Chrome inner primary, It is cheaper than re-powdercoating).
Also split motor and send cases out for total refubishment of powdercoat!!!
I also had a fitment issue with the gas tank (Bad/misaligned weld, pics to come) and so get a new tank!
The downside is the time it will take to do all the work in the middle of the riding season
The good news I can see is crank welded and pinned, cams, Diamond cut Jugs, head work, Cometic gasket, possible
piston change, and bearing conversion? (Need some help on those two) all with
No Labor Cost For disassembly/reassembly!!!!
What am I missing that I can do while this all taken apart???
Sooooo, once again Thank you H-D and Surdyke H-D for everthing!!!! Also big Thank You to the site for being so well informed and educational. I could not have dealt with this without all the people here on the site!!!!
