    Hard to argue. Shit happens. It isn't anything that can't be fixed. The engine still makes a lot of power..

    I think instead of going through the hassle of fixing the heads, I think I am just going to buy another bike.

    Hell yer starting to think like me now.
    Start with the NEW larger displacement motor, electronic compression releases, , larger throttle body, frame style, better disc brakes, new improved 6 speed transmission. higher charging system.
    Larger rear tire.
    Where do I stop
    Aluminum wheels no spokes. better balanced. No tubes.
    Cruise control....

    Know you don't like em. But there is no way you can take my hard lowers off.
    Super great when its cold outside or rains.
    Other times they are open letting air blow thew when its above 55*

    You will definately be glad you did.
    But you need to realize you will be entering a whole new world !

    I would buy a 96" so I could take that apart and make it bigger.
