Looked in the KV and came up empty for any info on this. Is anyone selling crate engines for our Buells? In the auto world this is a real good way to go. Most state of tunes and displacements and prices are fair. Many times its practical to have a spare stock backup and a performance engine to have "fun" with. Any info? Bob |

S&S prices are not "fair", they are priced higher than any new Buell(complete motorcycle). Add on the cost of alternator, starter, primary drive/clutch, transmission to make it swapable, probably not practical. Do I want a 100" S&S motor, Hell Ya! |

Ain't it the truth? There's no such thing as "too much power!" Maybe if oil gets to $100/barrel... rt |

I think Hals is selling race motors. I could be wrong. |

I asked Erik how he liked his new fire breathing monster... He just shook his head and said he shoulda left it stock. It's now a coughing, spitting beast at low RPM that's insanely fast |
