Question for Harley Owners

[95Mike]

I guess the newer ones that have four doors are coming with a supercharged 5.4 liter like the lightning. They probably weigh a lot more than the L, but how hard is it to get them into, let's say the 13s? I'd imagine it would take well to mods like the L.

The listing for empty weight puts the HD about 46 pounds less than the L.

I know someone that ran 13.8 or .9 out of the box.

I've seen a stock one turn 13.8 all night long...

Hey Adam Have you figured out how Ford did that?

 

[FordSVTFan]

Not yet!! I know the listed gross weight is more for the HD than the L, but in gross weight they consider 2 more 180 pound occupants in the HD vs the L.

2002 was when they added the Eaton.
2003 the Eaton got a black makeover.

2 more doors, another set of seats, 20" Chrome wheels, slightly shorter bed = less weight than a Lightning? that's got to be BS.

The weight difference is closer to 400 lbs. The wheels alone are close to 80 lbs. heavier then add the extra length cab with 2 extra leather seats, longer frame, etc. and you see what I mean.

Here's my ' 03 hooptie...

:coolman:

Rob, where is the Shaker hood?? Sweet truck:thumbsup:

You need to change the truck in your profile.

Any mods yet? Besides the killer wheels

Ive seen a HD F150 with a KB! Sweet truck & what i dont understand is why he is only using 9PSI Pulley instead of going higher?

Id worry abour running into a HD F150 if every one starts putting on the KB.

I'd say maybe the HD weighs less b/c of the Lightning's suspension? :shrug:

Is he running 9 lbs. total? Or 9 over stock?

 

[Rainman15]

I am running 12psi total on my 02 HD. Finally got my moonroof shade tightened up so it doesn't fly open everytime I launch My times aren't very impressive yet cause I'm blistering the 20's for the first 60'. Once I get my slicks I can give more accurate and consistant times.
My mods are as follows;
Mac Cold Air
8lb ASP Pulley
Diablo Flip Chip
4:56 Ring & Pinion
Neumatic Detroit Diffential Locker
2" Drop Shackles
More electronic and audio than I care to list here....

 

[FordSVTFan]

How about some pictures inside and out?

Thanks

Don't have a digital camera, but my best friend does. Next trip I go to the track I will get him to take it so we can post some pics up here. This thing launches like a moose with his ass on fire since I did the gear, pulley and chip and I'm still running my stock exhaust, and have no intentions of changing it right now. I never felt anything quite like it, and couldn't have believed anything this big could jump like it does.

 

[FordSVTFan]

I know! I drove my buddies 03 HD with the Kenne Bell on it and it hauls ass! But just like the Lightning, you need to be careful on the throttle when hitting even a small bump on an angle. That ass end loves to jump around!

U know not sure what the stock Eaton has on the L's...sorry folks but he said it was a bigger pulley then the Eaton, but made a bit more power. He was supposed to be pumping up the boost.

Swansons Performance had the truck out. The HD looked sweet. Lowered on some 20" rims, Brembo Brake Upgrade & who in the world is going to think the HD is going to have a KB in it?
