Just completed a complete engine rebuild/hop up on my Bike.
I had the cases split to change the flywheel to a stroker .
Here is a pic of what I found . I'm happy and not that surprised to see the 2 companies working together . Keep on building North American jobs .

10-15-2009 08:07 AMWhat kind of inches are you going to and who's gear drive cam ? Right now I'm running an older 103 incher with 585G S&S gear drive cam setup with a 45 Mikuni and Baker DD6 transmission, I really love this particular bike for some reason( a black/silver 100th anniv bagger) so instead of trading up right now, I'm just gonna make a faster pig

10-18-2009 07:12 PMMaybe Merc should put more R&D in on the Bravo xr and NXT drive and its transmission.

10-19-2009 10:42 AM118K man I must ride to hard I got 30K out of mine before I bent the crank. Its an 03 also. I just bought a JIMS 4 5/8" stroker crank welded and balanced, next will be a set Of Axtel cylinders and Pistons 10.5;1 , stock heads ported to death and shaved , updated cam plate, and bearings, 610 lift gear drive cams , light wieght push rods and throttle body. Already have the Bassani true dual set up. Probably going to do the 6 speed and definitly changing over to a chain final drive, so I will need rims to. Looking at 135hp range or better and driveable.
