Jims 135
« on: September 15, 2014, 05:25:57 PM »

Stopped by the local HD shop and was talking to a tech about performance engines and he said he noticed a new 135 in the SE parts catalog. It is a Jims and I am not interested but would like to hear from anyone and their experience , opinions and or comments. Supposed to fit the current Dyna and touring frames. (Curiosity and dead cats)

From what my Tech tells me about his experience(s) with the Jims, they got my vote too!

That's what I like about this site. Politically correct discretionary answers.

I dont know if I could have come up with any better compliment about them than that if I had to. I believe a guy over on VTF with the user name boatnut has a good evaluation of his experience with them. If you must have more than a 124", I heard a rumor that a respected name in the business is coming out with a crate motor that is larger than the JIMS motor that requires no frame mods etc. but no confirmation of that just yet.

We try to steer clear of that brand.
