Most of it is in the rafters right now. I might actually weld all the holes and do away with it. Not sure yet.

That VW has an EVO, which is an in house motor. Yer thinking bout the V-Rod, which is made by Porsche.
Liquid cooled and loads of torque. The new Milwaukee 8 is nearly as strong and they were able to keep it oil cooled and more lopey.
I dunno if I like it, tho. Hell, I preferred the feel of the EVO over my own Twin Cam.

Here's a super cool toy:

Ya it pulled them out of the bowling ball era! And a motor that didn’t spew oil off the showroom floor! Lol, vw/Porsche has engineered every motor after, even the v-rod
