BIG Race Spec Engine, Bigger Shocks, And First Fire-Up on our 72hr Sportster Build

It's thrash time!! The squad is going 'til the early hours of the morning to get this Harley Sportster built up and ready to get tested, so that we can tackle "The Stampede", a Harley-Davidson Hooligan race on June 20th. We've got a bunch of parts and not a whole lot of time to make this thing run, so every step here is key. Thankfully we've got help from our buddies at Tracker Die and The Speed Merchant.
Thanks to everyone who’s making this mission possible:

[@bikecommuter24]

👏 as an a fan of Sportsters and someone who has owned a few over the years, really liked this video. the Sportster 1200S was something different back in 1996 when it came out, then later they did the dual plug heads and other upgrades it was fast. I can hear some collectors groan when you started cutting it up. I knew a guy who had a 1996 1200S and he had his heads modified by Branch, did the cams, pipes, carb and ignition and it was fast for a 1200.

[@marc9283]

learned more about these engines in 2 episodes than in many years of watching OCC back in the day.

[@kincaidharrison9289]

I like watching this series on the bike, because I’m learning about brands I would’ve never heard of. It’s so interesting how based on the car or bike culture you follow the different brands and companies you discover

[@smithbilly1985]

Impacting that nut off can throw off the balance on your crank. The shock transmits through the pinion. Check out Hammer Performance, they sell a locking tool that holds the pinion so you can use hand tools. More than likely itll be fine but its always a possibility it may have more vibration. Can also wear out the drive gear for the oil pump. Nice build though.
