Genuine Harley-Davidson Oils etc. We are often confronted by owners concerned about servicing and undertaking work during their warranty period and the use of non Harley lubricants and the possibility of voiding the warranty. Larry Gutjahr Harley's P&A lubricants category manager said recently in "Hogtails" No, that's not true. We cannot and would not void a warranty for the use of another brand of oil. So there you have it, straight out of the factory, however if your still not sure we now stock Genuine Harley-Davidson oils.

Trick Box For original "Active Exhaust System"

Harley-Davidson introduced the Active Exhaust System on it's European 2007 big twin models. It's an ECM controled electric motor to open or close a valve in the exhaust to meet EU exhaust noise standards.

For those who prefer the classic Harley rumble to the EU whisper it is first necessary to overcome the "Fault" warning lights on the dash. Zodiac offers two trick boxes to fool the OEM onboard computer and eliminate the "fault" light problem.

  • Easy to install they simply plug-in between the ECM and the AEV control motor. availible in two types
  • Overrule Trick box, allows you to run AEV constantly open or closed, or as normal. For use with OEM or modified OEM Mufflers.
  • Manual Trick box, allows you to run the AEV constantly open or closed. For use with after market mufflers.
  • Both retail at only £63

Features:

• Start any engine with a stock starter
• Save your starter and battery!
• Reliable – tested for 10,000 starts and didn’t
even run the battery down!
• Automatic – no buttons to push
THREE MOST POPULAR GRINDS
A bolt-in cam for all RPM ranges.
Something for everyone.
S&S® set out to develop a new group of bolt in cams for 2007-up big twins. The three design targets were low end torque for touring, peak horsepower and a cam that would offer the best possible combination between torque and horsepower. The 551 emerged as the touring cam and the 583 is a great over all cam. The proven 585 posted the best results for peak horsepower.
HERE’S HOW IT WORKS
ONE
Each of the two exhaust cam lobes are equipped with a spring loaded compression release lobe on the “heal” of the cam at the point where the valve would normally be fully closed.
TWO
The lobe holds the exhaust valve open slightly at cranking speed. This releases some of the compression, making the engine much easier to crank.
THREE
Once the engine starts, and rpm increases, the compression release lobe is centrifugally retracted and the engine runs normally, with full compression, and without any loss in performance. This allows a stock starter and battery to start nearly any engine.Reduces cranking compression – easier on starting system!
