FXR 124" twin cam

[turboprop]

That full-length bushing in the trans looks like a really nice upgrade. I have seen so many FXR transmissions that had seized pivot shafts and had to have the shaft beat out of the case. Often times buggering up the hole. Even the cases that had shafts that slid out without force will typically have pivot holes that are out of spec. This is good.

Trying to get back working on the FXR... Life gets in the way sometimes...

Made a torque plate so I can hone the cylinders for the CP pistons.

Glad to see you back. Enjoy watching your build.

Made a plate to hold the cases..... Then bored them for the 124 cylinders.

Impressive.

I enjoy watching what you do, having the equipment is nice.
When I spot faced mine I built a mill to cut for an o-ring to seal the thru bolt.

I am loving this build thread.

nice seeing the motor build thanks for sharing.

[nosjunkie]

Got the bottom end almost done... Not sure if Ill run this cover.. Its kind of neat to be able to see the gears and plate... If I do it will get anodized or Powder coated. Might have to send the heads out as the Serdi is not cooperating...

Very nice for sure.

Put the 25mm bearings in the rear wheel.... I guess the 25mm bearing is quite a bit narrower... and they dont make a wider version... Ill need to dig into this further. I really like the added width..  [attach=0,msg1273292]

3205-2RS is a wider (same as 3/4 and 1" bearings) 25mm bearing to fit harley wheels. That is a NSK bearing, other brands might be 5205?

I made it a little harder on myself with the triple trees.. I should have used the 207mm spacing in hindsight... it would have been easier to find a front wheel. I was going to run CF. but have a hard time with the price.. and the look is only ok IMO.. So I bought a custom built front wheel.. using an aluminum rim it only weighs 10lbs 14 oz. 

Andrei was a great guy to deal with.. had my order placed in about 10 min and it was at my door the next week..

NOSJunkey, I know that you know, but for everyone else, an oem harley narrow glide hub with sealed bearings is the correct width for use with a 207mm spaced inverted fork.  Rotors with zero offset will align perfectly with the calipers on a 207mm spaced fork.

 Really nice work , I enjoy seeing the result thanks for posting it here

Incredibly great job, looking forward to the final picture and your report!

Out of curiosity, did you have them seal it for tubeless application? I'd be curious to see how it works out for you if you did.

I did not. it will run a tube.
