lets "TEAR DOWN"

[Dogbone]

Well after finding an oil leak :bang: on the bottom front head gasket, decided to tear the bike apart and replace all the motor gaskets, new cam, fork seals, wire plus kit, rear shocks, trans seal, primary seals/gaskets, Changing from TP to S&S rockers and what ever else i can find. Guess i wont be riding for awhile as I just ordered most of the parts which is starting out at $1500.00 and this doesnt include the what ever else i find yet :loony:.....
Wish me luck and send help if you can...:2thumbs:
well got it apart mostly.

Somewhere on here I posted all the TP info needed for the topend with parts list I got from TP. Think its a sticky somewhere.

Have fun, its pretty easy to do.

Riding everyday but not much long distance lately. Hope all is well over there.
