Harley-Davidson 124 Cubic Inch Milwaukee-8 Zipper's Performance Sleeper Build: Episode 5

[@dennism103]

Ur dad raised you right instilling a passion for harleys. They really do bring genuine lasting happiness

[@douglasbelasco9773]

Zippersperformance has always been ahead in the game of modifying Harley Davidson engines. The people that they work with also are top notch [ Dan Baisly} for example plus their line of red shift cams can make lots of HP&Torque.

[@brianhelgerson3870]

After watching this the first words that stood out far and above the dyno results was Class. Zippers and T T. You are truly First Class . the fact that you took the time to acknowlege all of the people who made this build happen is wonderful. Support those who support you. Thank you. You have all my respect and earned my business going forward.

[@goodboyringo9716]

That was really cool saying thank you to the guys , that's what makes the workers feel good , you can see it on their faces .

[@Tobenator1200]

Adam does an outstanding job in technical sales

[@bigbench28]

I've loved watching this series!! Thank you for documenting it!

[@Combatinho]

Nice to see a quality man out there. Your gratitude is very sincere. Ride safe.

[@rays.1761]

I'll be watching it again 👍

[@mrnolettebn]

Thank you

[@pcfla3358]

One of those young techs did a great job on my 2005 Dyna Wide Glide at another dealership.

[@ANONYMOUSBIKERUSA]

Tall your bike is officially a Performence Bagger beast !!!!!!! Zippers is so technically proficient at their craft! Outstanding ! Can’t wait to hear it in person one day! 👍🏼😎

[@chas106g.6]

Very nice build! This bike sounds great! I bet it is real quick.

[@onlyhereonce7290]

What a great company. Power and reliability. A great package.

[@roadglide]

Exciting! The M8 power plant is perfect for these type projects. Team Zipper’s are craftsman. Life’s short, just buy the bike!

[@kennethwise7108]

Mr. "Road Glide", thought I'd share my 95th Anniversary Evo powered Road Glide with you. Its currently got 140,000 miles on it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/m3rSmaGtZ8yfhs0

[@thomasbartlett3409]

Mr. Tall, be sure to ask the folks at Zippers how the STOCK HD M8 (107/114/117 ) engines compares to the Indian Challenger 108/111 engines quality and report their finding on your Indian final assessment. When people pay top dollar for HD motorcycles , especially the CVO, they deserve a blueprinted quality engine like their competitors provide.

[@harleydave2316]

Very nice Tall!!!! She sounds amazing! Be safe out there. 😋

[@cjhunter6105]

Great series on your 124 Sleeper kit install....wish I had seen it when it first aired then I could be closer to getting my 107 upgraded. Working as a parts associate at a H-D dealership, I felt a little vindication when Adam made a point to explain why they built this 124 kit based on "how and where" you ride. That is one of the first questions I ask a customer when I get asked about which Stage kit is the best for them. Unfortunately, most don't have a clue about what I mean and that is when I get to explain. I also learned why I might also be burning oil in between oil changes as well and it is a little scary to think my crankcase oil jets might not be nice and tight. I will be talking to the boys in the shop to see if they watched this series and are they ready to do this build.

[@TravelingTall]

Let me know how it turns out.

[@Thefloatingbagger]

Great vid. Wondering what they could do for my 13 103 street

[@joebech9721]

Never understood running a new pistons/cylinders without at least a 50 miles break in. So let me Crack the throttle and wonder why later it smokes. Just my opinion. On my rebuild, I take it easy for the first 1000. 2003 softail bored to 98 etc etc etc. Bought it in 2005 with 3000 miles on it. Great video and nice part matching. Made a fun riding bike

[@cecet5534]

Awesome numbers!

[@eddierivera8910]

Those guys at Zippers are top notch!!!!! 👍💨⛽️

[@Mainecat21]

That D&D 2-2 sounds waaaaay better than their 2-1 exhaust. My 124" does almost exact numbers and it is a lot of fun to ride .

[@wtf0101]

Its about what you like or is it about numbers?

[@Mainecat21]

@@wtf0101 Can't say I've been a fan of their exhaust tone in the past. But that 2-2 with your set up sounds good. And it looks like it performs well down low for a 2-2

[@bav114]

I love these vids. I wish Zippers were in the UK.

[@TravelingTall]

Thank you, thanks for watching

[@troncoparati]

Nice team to work with.

[@ElPaPaBear69]

Maaannn! I want this for my Glide C’mon

[@slyguyaction]

Really thrilled for you man! Ride safe!!

[@TravelingTall]

Thank you, thanks for watching.

[@nokoolaid]

I am not surprised by the improvements, but I am surprised by the oil issues. I wonder how that portends to owning one over the long haul?

[@kingezekiel4931]

Great video y’all I just purchase a 2019 107 street glide and I’ll be getting this done to bike

[@dennism103]

Hey tall consider legend shocks on the rear totally worth it. The stock ones are junk imo

[@theramblingsoflarry9290]

Great video

[@jamieelder7438]

BEAST!!

[@pcfla3358]

Fantastic video. Great build. Now it’s my turn.

[@giants204]

Great videos pal love what you did to that monster. looking into doing something like that what did that run you if you don't mind me asking? Im in NY I would love to drop my baby to Zipper's.

[@dennism103]

Coolest hd I've ever heard

[@mikedanaher3413]

Dang that thing is sweet. Congratulations 👍

[@cewonz8884]

Your smiles spoke in volume brah! 😊🙏 Ride safe!

[@TravelingTall]

Thank you, thanks for watching!

[@cliftongalloway5970]

Just found your channel-great bike!

[@bill4780]

That's awesome!!! Hey how much would all that work cost with their labor changing the cylinders Pistons cam thundermax how much would that be for the average person if they just walked in off the street and went to zephyrs??? And is that sleeper kit is that like just having a stock 124 now??? So now we'll get to see some more videos on how you upgrade the 124 inch!!!!

[@thomaslemay8817]

Customers ask. How fast can you make it go? Tech, How much money do you have to spend?

[@Jim_Berry]

Tall, what an amazing experience and I now love Zippers! Didn’t know much about them before this video series. Well done my friend!

[@TravelingTall]

Thank You, Thanks for watching Happy New Year!

[@Tedowski]

Great video series. Thanks

[@davidhodgins7122]

I have a 2018 Anniversary Street Glide and this looks like the perfect set up. What was the total end cost parts and labor. I am in Ontario Canada.

[@DavidAdiv]

That’s awesome, I am going to look in to this for my fat boy no doubt, good luck enjoy that ride safe

[@yayagazab4449]

What was the total cost of these upgrades & improvements?

[@StevenVanLoven]

nice work !! Zipper's did a great job!

[@dennism103]

A excellent video

[@stillwater5531]

Awesome video, do you know who makes the Upgraded Slave cylinder ?

[@DoubleH1906]

Finally watched al the videos on the install. Good stuff. Do you know if there are dealers for zippers in the Southeast? Or will have to make it to Maryland? Either way we’re there

[@nickrandell2784]

I wonder what this could do to my 2019 TriGlide?

[@jimweagant8920]

That is far from a sleeper good video thanks for sharing

[@anthonywarren1845]

I have to ask, what was the total cost? I'm very interested in going this route.

[@2hotFL]

I'm curious how much it all cost as well.

[@phillybaggers3250]

So all they did was change out cylinders and pistons put a tuner and a pipe you didn’t go with a full CNC ported head?

[@russelllowrey7220]

Tall, how long did this take from drop off to completed job?

[@bobfrederick475]

I’ve got a 2020 street glide standard and looking at what zippers did for you I might have to make that trip one day. Curious to what it all cost ?

[@russelllowrey7220]

Tall, how long did this take from drop off to completed job

[@kevinc7910]

Great video. I didn’t really understand the the cam choice until he showed the Dyno results and explained the numbers. Now it makes since. I just order the 468 kits for my 2019 CVO RG. I’m doing the head pipe and mufflers also with no plans of going with the 124 so I should be very happy with the 468 cam.

[@johnnyturbo8460]

You should have gone with the Jim's VTwin performance Maxcell 821B cam. More power, more torque, FANTASTIC idle, smoother and longer powerband. Extremely reliable. I LOVE IT in my 2019 Ultra Limited 114ci. Dynoed at wheels 116 hp and about 135 tq

[@TravelingTall]

Zipper's is a great company, you will be pleased with the 468. I recommend the Thunder max Tuner.

[@johnnyturbo8460]

@@TravelingTall go with the Jim's VTwin performance Maxcell 821B cam you will be more then pleased! I LOVE MINE with Power Vision tune, and it makes more power and torque then then zipper cam

[@davidlia1102]

0-60 mph, what time does it take? I am curious.

[@bnavqm]

Just curious, I have a 2018 Ultra Limited with a set of TAB Performance BAM Sticks with Zombie baffles. I saw on one of your videos, you ran those pipes for a while. Why did you switch to the D&D?

[@chriscolbert8633]

How much did you spend on the 124 kit?

[@kevinchristiansen1099]

thanks for showing the dog what is his name

[@davidefland1985]

Does it void warranty?

[@roadglide1142]

I want this done ✅ to my 2017 Limited ! Sweeeet ! 👍😂

[@richardjohnson8107]

How about that fuel mileage

[@paintmann1214]

Hit us up if you come towards Nashville.

[@NYCuda]

Have their 468 cam & tundermax, love it, but dang Zippers, get rid of that 1995 monitor on your dyno!

[@CactusJack252]

Why replace it if it still works?

[@parkeslife4323]

Credit to Zippers. Just a question about the exhaust, with the X pipe do you get the same benefits from the 2-1-2 configuration as a 2-1 torque/power wise?

[@bobhog3969]

Frederick Parkes no

[@cavscout62]

You don’t need it. Rusty is an exhaust Guru and he designs and builds the best performing exhaust there is to be had.

[@patricklewandowski3115]

What is the gas mileage with this kit?

[@Dustin359]

I'd have made sure to thank the shop dog ;)

[@safelyanonymous5717]

how much was the job?

Where is this shop?...

Elkridge MD. Awesome shop . They know how to get to point.

[@amphibdriver1]

What about when you get caught in heavy traffic?

[@cavscout62]

amphibdriver1 -What about it?

[@amphibdriver1]

@@cavscout62 ----Does this 124 sleeper engine get a whole lot hotter in heavy traffic when compared to a Harley 114 engine? I have read that aftermarket Harley big inch engines really hate to be stuck on traffic and overheat.

[@CactusJack252]

It is probably just fine. The M8's run really cool and with that fan on the oil cooler it shouldn't be a problem.

[@wunder8962]

What seat is that?

[@jeffo3253]

what's was your out the door cost of the upgrades?

[@CactusJack252]

He is probably somewhere around the 5k mark. That exhaust alone is over 1 grand.

[@kennethwise7108]

Hi, Does Zippers have a Bike that they plan on racing in the AHDRA circuit in 2020?

[@TravelingTall]

I don't know, that would be awesome to see.

[@JDB5824RG]

I wrote to these guys to get some work on my bike after I bought all of their parts and they wouldn’t do it .....

[@joec2174]

Did you upgrade the oil you use? A full syn oil is a blend of conventional oil with syn additives. A 100 % syn oil is what it says it is. Amsoil is one such oil. Your worn valve guides and piston deposits indicate an oil type issue. 100% Gear oil in the trans works better also and it will drop right into neutral every time.

[@unclepete7220]

Does Harley still honor your warranty now that you've had all this engine work done?

[@vics8873]

150 ft-lbs of torque without traction control-what a waste (and dangerous)!
