Bolt on performance for 2007-2010 twin cam motors.

Complete kit in black or silver cylinders only

$746.95

Kit includes cylinders, pistons, rings and gaskets.

Dyno Runs and Tuning Available !!!!

   

New!!!!!!

We now also tune HD race tuner, HD super tuner and TTS master tuner along with power commander.

     We are an Approved Dyno Jet Tuning Center. We offer Dyno runs and Dyno tuning on carbureted and fuel injected Harleys. We have the top of the line Dynojet 250i in our service area with an experienced MMI ,S&S and Dyno Jet  certified operator.

    We use the top of the line tuning link software to provide advanced tuning techniques. To optimize power we tune each cylinder separately with results showing tunes from front to rear cylinder are within 1 half horse power and 1 half pound of torque. This provides maximum power output, a crisp clean, smooth acceleration through out the power band and reduces or eliminates decel pop all together.  

 Tech Tip Stage One

              What is a stage one performance upgrade and what will it do for my bike?

     Due to EPA requirements on manufacturers the engine is extremely restricted. So the stage one improvement removes the restrictions.

    How, reminds me of one of my favorite watering holes in Myrtle Beach the Suck - Bang - Blow.

    1. Imagine your motor is breathing through a straw so first we remove the restrictive air cleaner and toss it. We install a free flow air filter like the Big Suck from Arlen Ness. This allows the motor to take in more air. (Suck)

    2. Now that your motor is breathing like a champ we have created very lean fuel state (not enough gas for all the air). We correct this on fuel injected models with a power commander. This will tell the ECM to inject more gas. On carbureted models we recalibrate the carb to give more gas. (Bang)

   3. We now have to give freedom to the back end to expel the burnt fuel mixture. (Exhaust) We do this by replacing the stock exhaust with less restrictive set which normally is accompanied by a better quality sound also. (Blow)
 

    Now that we have increased the Suck the Bang and the Blow, (Besides not sounding like a Volkswagen) we have increased throttle response and depending on the choices of air filters and exhaust on average we have also gained about 14% to 20% increase in horsepower and torque.
 

Here is an example of a completed stage one. This 2010 Dyna belongs to George Noll. We have installed a Power Commander 5, Super Gas Air Cleaner with a Rival face plate by Performance Machine and a set of Vance and Hines Big Radius exhaust.

Baker Plus 1 Oil Pan

As we know keeping an  air cooled motor cool  is important for the life of the engine. Baker has made that a little easier with the Baker plus one oil pan.

bulletDesigned with 3D solid modeling to increase pan capacity by 1 quart.
bulletReduces engine oil temperature by 10º on a 80º day.
bulletThe feed and return on a stock pan are located within a 2 inches of each other in the front of the pan. BAKER+1 pan has the feed located in the rear and the return in the front for more compete system circulation.
bulletMultiple integral aluminum baffles eliminate the stock plastic baffle.
bullet2-piece premium show chrome or polished billet
-or-
1-piece cast (black or natural finishes) available for 1993-2008 FL applications.
bulletIntegral boss for Alloy Art TXR stabilizer is structurally located in rear of pan. Visit www.alloyart.com for more info on the TXR.
bullet1993-2008 FLH applications

This oil pan is great especially addressing the heat generated by Harley's 96 ci motors. One customer reported a 15 to 20 degree reduction in oil temperature on his stock 2008 FLHTCU.

The Baker plus 1 cast models retails for $499. and takes about 3 hours to install. Following are pictures of a Baker+1 being installed on a 2006 Street Glide

As you can see with the side by side pictures the Baker+1 eliminates the plastic baffle system used in the stock Harley oil pan.

Internet Feature Bike

    This 2008 Softail Deluxe belongs to Dillon Miller who's currently serving our country abroad. We will be doing a cosmetic and  performance upgrade to include an S&S 106 kit and a set of Andrews Cams. We will also be including a set of wheels. So we first put his bike on the Dyno to get a base line.

 Dillon's  bike was producing 66.7 Horsepower and 78.5 pounds of torque. Now we will begin the tear down.

     Now that we have it tore down we will begin reassembly starting with replacing the stock inner cam bearings. Then rebuilding the cam plate with a set of Andrews 37 cams.

 We will now finish the  cam assembly on the bike.

We measured the gear offset and made the necessary spacer adjustment and completed the assembly. We installed the S&S 106 big bore and completed the top end assembly.

Dillons bike came from Okinawa so we had to do some corrosion corrections the Island life is rough on a bike.

Dillon decided on the Fat 50's wheels from Ride Wright wheels

Joe's 2001 Road King came in needing some tender loving care. The Coastal living took its toll on his aluminum and chrome pieces, so rather than replace them we pulled them all off and had them powder coated including the front wheel. As you can see she is breathing new life.

Bolt on chopper kits....by SEEGER CYCLE

                                            What is a bolt on chopper kit?

     More than just a set of raked triple trees, the bolt-on system was developed to give your bike that dramatic chopper look while providing safe handling at all speeds.  It eliminates the guesswork by retaining your bike's original trail measurement.  Proper trail is an essential component in motorcycle design, determining your bike's stability and overall handling characteristics.  Seeger's  patented design is built into the kit components and does not require any changes to the bike's frame. Thirteen degrees of rake and it maintains your stock trail.

DFT Trikes

DFT Trikes are available for all Harley Models

The D.F.T. independent suspension system starts with a differential mounted in a two-piece case. The case is 'O' ringed and sealed at the drive axles and mating surfaces. This serves as the adaptation device that maintains the motorcycle's original drive location and provides a mounting for the brake rotor. The drive spool is then mounted in a pair of main castings that are the foundation for mounting and placement to the motorcycle, lower suspension pivot points, upper shock mounts, brake caliper mount, drive spool and inner half shaft bearing bosses. 

All steel components, such as the lower arms and drive shafts, are T.I.G. welded and plated in zinc dichromate. The lower arms are fitted with tapered roller bearings at both the main casting and outer carrier pivot points for long life and smooth suspension movement. The half shafts use automotive type universal joints equipped with grease fittings.

The outer wheel carrier employs a sealed, double row ball bearing hub that mounts a 5 bolt x 100mm bolt circle, 16" front wheel drive rim available in numerous styles from many sources. The four shock's coil-over shock system provides tunable stance, balance and vertical position. To complete the system and enhance cornering and steering, a sway bar is provided. It is easily adjusted through a turnbuckle and locknut arrangement, and is mounted with spherical ends enabling a quiet, smooth, positive operation. 

The DFT trike kit is an easily installed, versatile and adjustable, bolt-on package. What this means to you is a good handling and extremely smooth and stable three-wheeled motorcycle. Let us build one for you and experience the difference an independent suspension can make.
