Wedge Motor
« on: November 07, 2008, 03:01:09 PM »

Indulging my guilty pleasure in watching Moe,Larry and Curly from OCC last night. ( I gotta say the show where they jousted with cardboard tubes had me rolling on the floor)

Anyway, back on topic. The OCC crew built a chopper for this company that makes a gas tank cuff for motorcycles.(I've got a 50 cent piece of sheetmetal that does the same thing but what the hey good luck to em) 

The engine they put in this "high end" * chopper was an S&S Wedge motor. Who can tell me what that's all about ?

* What's high end for OCC. They charge a fortune for one of their production bikes.

This will be the standard motor on the new 2009 Big Dog Wolf.
Just a guess on my part but I would expect to see a lot more of this motor.
Go to the S&S website and you can hear it run...sounds very cool.

Apparently the Wedge is EPA friendly and a cool running motor. And they sound pretty good too. Several home brew kits are already out there with this motor. I think we will see a lot more of this motor in the future. Jim's is supppose to come out with their EPA friendly version around Feb, March 2009 in Twin Cam form.
