Had 71,000+ on my '04 883 when the front cylinder con rod big end started knocking. Finally put a Hammer Performance 1200 kit on it, with all the goodies, now have just shy of 97,000. Still going strong.

None lately for me as both “rubbermounts “ are off the road. Back to riding the HotRod bike, a 2000 rigid mount. Forgot how throttle sensitive she is with a stroker motor.
