New Technology in 2007, better designs and tranny. Easy Clutch and easier transmission. No oil consumption at all and no drips. 96 cubes of relentless power and longevity. This is not your fathers Harley. No trips to the service shop at all. 29,000 on the clock.  53,000 on the Valkyrie and ride both of them equally hard. Let's see which one breaks down first.  |

Wait till you hit 50k and your stator, compensator sproket, and timing chains goes. Then again this is on the TC88's.  After seeing all the work that needed done this year out west on them TC, it turned me off. May have to go for the Evo's instead. |

If I still have my Electra Glide when she turns 50K I think I will pull the motor and puts some power componants in there and replace what's worn. I've put over 1000 miles on her in less than 3 weeks only 30K to go. Ride on Big Al. .JPG) |

99 Valk I/S 102K runs like she did new.  97 Standard with 42K miles will run off and leave most Harleys.  I still like variety. |

Relentless does not mean,,,, all powerful. It means it keeps on ticking after it takes a licking. Like when I am on the Gas or Gassed. It still fires up no matter what and takes me where I want to go. Al

Fudgie there ain't no timing chain. But there is some chains that time the cams.
Will get rid of those as soon as my 5 year warranty gives up.
What a waste of money, a 5 year warranty that I have never used.
Andrews Gear Drive Cams and some hopped up cams soon.

For only 1800 dollars and little bit of elbow grease I had a buddy take his 96 incher
to the 117 hp level and it actually pulls the front wheel off the ground when he
hammers it a little on a gear change.
Heads and Cams make all the difference, it's not just the inches that matter.
103 incher has the same cams from Harley as the 96 incher , just more torque.

For instance the Victory 106 has more horses but the 1/4 mile times against the Harley
are almost identical.
Torque on the Harley comes on earlier and is more effective.
10 cubes difference but practically the same performance.

Keeping the front end down from a hole shot on a Blown Valk with the car tire is a serious problem, i lean forward so much i hit the windshield with my head, the real challenge is trying Not to wheelstand this thing, With the Wife on the back it is OUTRIGHT DANGEROUS...if you dare in first at a roll 2 up hit the gas you will look straight UP!!! It hurts my rib's....usually my left side.....from getting punched by the Wife |
