Moonshine Horsepower 139 Nightmare M8 Softail 177HP 152TQ | Bike Build No. 10

[@LonerBoi88883]

It's about to get real physical

[@tomconner5067]

That piston design concept is pretty impressive

[@darrell759]

You guys doing excellent job explaining what's going on inside the cylinders with the bearings, and what's happening at what engine speed outstanding job guys. That's the probably the most in-depth explanation I've got to hear over the Internet anyhow

[@marcosmarron624]

That is exactly how I want a Harley color scheme and everything

[@rayf534]

Sounds MEAN !!!! ❤ Luv it ! HOLD ON BABY !!! 👍

[@locoocho2415]

Damn this is insane..... I can only imagine what you could do to a Street Bob 114...... love the content 👍

[@quebecchris]

Insane build. Well explained too. Thanks for the great content!

[@MoonshineHarley]

Thank You.

Great video 👍🏻 Learned a lot.

moonshine so I txtd back the # that was sent to me to wine prize?

Rocking couple is what you’re talking about and it’s a killer. Good work.

[@buschmaster4600]

I'd like to hear your opinions on the new S&S 129 kit for the 107 M8s during the Q&A tomorrow. I'll be there!

[@ridered7394]

Definitely be interested in that as well

[@MoonshineHarley]

Too thin of cylinder spigots on those kits. We’ll show you tomorrow. I’ll make sure we have a 131 cylinder ready and what has to be done to get those extra cubes without boring the case.

[@thomasmoore2695]

Damn Bros...I've loved this shit my whole life,I just stumbled on your channel and what a jem. You two have a great way to explain it even to a guy like me who thinks he knows his shit. I've learned a lot thanks. Would love to take that beast down the road!

[@MoonshineHarley]

Thanks Thomas.

[@dearslayer4524]

Im a roller bearing fan too!

[@taps_1021]

I believe the squirter works at higher psi. To keep pistons cool under high heat .

[@MoonshineHarley]

It does as well. But hard to supply enough to keep us with a piston that’s moving up and down 50 to 100 time a second.

[@taps_1021]

@@MoonshineHarley I forget m8s oil psi is higher than tc engines .

Very nice content.

[@jpp2422]

Do y'all ever add an air shifter? Like a pingel? for use at the drag strip.

[@MoonshineHarley]

Yes.

[@herbie6860]

How do you keep belts on them without going chain,I've had few stage 4 upgraded kits in new M8s & stage 5 TC snapping multiple belts under few thousand KMs so how does something with so much power not just break belts from winding em on hard,thought pressure be similar to dumping clutches on the smaller stage 4 motors factory kits ??? Congrats on the bike also it's done very well one of best I've seen.👍

[@MoonshineHarley]

Belts hold up great when the motorcycle is operated correctly. If someone is going to be dumping their clutch all the time or wheeling we swap to chain. It’s all about the rider.

[@danieljacobson5774]

How reliable are these motors

[@garygruber1452]

I'll be the buzzkill here and ask what you anticipate motor longevity to be before it needs a complete tear down. Back in the 70's riding a nearly stock FLH, we would do a piston overbore every 40,000. Valves too. Low end would be looked at around 80,000.

[@24james]

Bad ass build🔥💯🦾🏍🇺🇸 Wish you all were in SoCal…out here the State is trying to strangle every bike on the road🤮 So hard to find a shop to rebuild & dyno.

Dear Lord that's a wicked, gnarly beast. That'll give little old ladies a heart attack from two states away.

[@MoonshineHarley]

Best comment award!!!

[@tomconner5067]

Offsetting the wristpin location to align the angle of force (Lateral Rod Angle) during the initial degrees of crank rotation on the power stroke, placing the force in a mechanically advantageous and more efficient direction, (reduces power loss and part surface friction) you will get more torque and HP without increasing peak engine speeds, or as much throttle angle. SOMEBODY DO IT!

[@wiremuperry4310]

What pipe is that

[@bc1953]

Can you put in a fatbob

[@jasonnutter5844]

This bike is mean Serious question how reliable would this setup be for a long trip say 2,000 mile trip normal riding?

[@MoonshineHarley]

Handle 2,000 miles with ease.

[@henny3862]

Lol I actually rode this bike from TN all the way back to Vegas! Staying anywhere between 80-130+ no issues whatsoever

[@fz1rida953]

With The modifications thats been done to my bike its pushing close to 160 hp with about 90 ft lbs of tq and its a handfull, i could only imagine what that bike feels like. I want one. I guess its time for some spray.

[@fastballfilms4214]

Get a litre bike.

[@MoonshineHarley]

Spray it!!!!

[@curtishoke143]

@@fastballfilms4214 I bet my road king special will destroy your piece of shit crotch sprocket, y'all claim 180 to 200 HP that's at the flywheel so your really making 150 to 170hp with about 70 torque my Harley will embarrass your liter bike and you can make the video and put it on your channel so everyone can see

[@kristophergreen2418]

What is y’all’s opinion on leading edge cylinder jugs? Do they run cooler?

[@MoonshineHarley]

Less surface fin area for cooling but run cooler? Physics has laws.

[@DannyDricken]

"Going down on the compression stroke" I think you meant down on the power stroke. 👍

[@40indyuk]

Air filter looks inadequate ?

[@MoonshineHarley]

It could use a wider element.

[@AMERICAFIRST54]

With a high performance, big H.P. engine like that. Honestly, how long do they last whilst running the s**t out of them?

Is George’s last name Bryce by any chance?

[@nane2545]

What if you drop the transmission pulley down two teeth, now that bike will be insane, starting at about 1500 RPM up to wherever you lock that motor out at. Which I would want the RPM'S locked out at 200 below it's max for every gear, so you never go beyond your power band

[@MoonshineHarley]

MONSTER!!!

What wheels are those?

[@henny3862]

Stock FXLRS wheels powder coated black

[@Futbucker1]

Why do people build these monsters and not post any riding footage on KZbin 😢

[@christianarmoryworks]

Question. I've seen several locals go from 107 & 114, to 124 & 131 kits, along with cams, valve springs and head work done. Every one of these engines are starting to fail at around $30,000 miles with 30 to 50,000 plus run out on the crank.. I'm being told the Timken conversion is a way to eliminate the Harley bearings to eliminate walk in the bottom end, you're saying this is a true?

[@MoonshineHarley]

We would not Timken bearing the lower end. We would build the flywheel. For more information please contact our Horsepower Team Nick - Jamie - Mike - Aaron Phone: [phone] Email: [e-mail] ***If you email us please provide a good contact phone number for you.
