    Hey Stephen,
    Got my trans back from spyke, replaced 3rd gear for $250. I actually think that is a pretty good deal, it could have been a lot worse when talking about trannys. The bike is riding very well and for those of you out there that have a trans problem I would definitely reccomend using spyke. They are located in Downey Ca.

    Anyway Stephen, I bought this bike second hand and the dude I got it from said it was an S&S 124″ I have seen on your forum that most of your bikes have the 113″. Is it possible this bike upgraded to the 124″ or was he just BSing me. Vin# 1V9FV31A55R116768

    I appreciate all the info and thanks for helping me out with the trans.

    Steve

    Glad to hear about the tranny. looked up your VIN your bike shipped with a 113. You can tell if its a 124 by counting the fins on the top of the head the 113ci has 9. The 124ci has 10.

    Thanks for replying Stephen, has 9 fins so it is the 113 which is fine with me. The bike screams the way it is. Any more power and I would have to get my rotator cuffs replaced! Just good to know exactly what I have in case of any maintenance issues. Looking forward to you reopening. Absolutely love this Bike.
    All the best to you!
