Harley: Custom Touring Road King (the Beach Bike)

[ElectricBobber]

Thanks for commenting. No, I dont feel extra vibrations because of the elimination of the rear rubber mounts. I do feel more secure in knowing the pivot point is solid and far less likely to twist. The engine vibrations are still taken up nicely by the front motor mount. Yes, the EVO engine is a bit more easier to work with as far as ignition and design but the Twin Cam is nice for alignment purposes when building a bike as the engine and tranny bolt together. The frame in the video is an EVO.

that's a nice one, I was thinking of trying a road king at some point, I was talking with my dad about those "rubber bisquit" things, we both agreed It was kinda stupid, funny I found this video with you taking them out, nice looking professional design on the replacement, did you notice more vibration from removing the rubber? I was thinking of trying to obtain an EVO road king, as the evo seems a bit more backyard user friendly than a Twin Cam, got a Bmw airhead now, easy as pie =P
