2001 heritage with 62,000 miles. Never had cam cover off. Use synthetic oil and changed regularly. Ridden hard and fast. How important to check cams, chains and etc.

I will post more info about what I'm doin in the new projects post but for now a question. The manual says to put a spring weight on the Swingarm when I mount it back to the frame. Is this necessary as I didn,t change shock length or completely remove the shocks. Seems to me that when I remount the swingarm everything should line up as before it was removed. As always Any advice is appreciated. Got some before pics and will try to post on the projects forum 2moro or the next day.

I don't even know if I can remember all the chrome and upgrades, but the biggies are the Vance & Hines Long Shot pipes, Carlini 1 1/2 inch bars, with custom Carlini risers (which I've never seen on another Fat Boy before), all chrome hand controls, chrome fat boy wheels, chrome upper and lower forks, chrome mirrors. It has a custom air filter plus chrome cover. I've replaced all of the pegs and grips with matching HD Bar & Shield pattern parts. Almost every part I replaced was with Harley Davidson parts, with the exception of...

Anyone out there got a dyno map for PCIII for the following:

2005 HD Softail (TC-88)
Stock ECM
Samson True Duals with Fishtail mufflers
Screaming Eagle Air Box
Everything else is stock (Cams, Pistons, Crank Etc.)

soooooooooo.........
