I will be ordering a 1275 kit from this man! support small business people, especially the ones with good products like this and know what the f*** they doing! thanks hammer!
I installed the 1250 kit on my sportster a few years ago and couldn't install my lifters I had putit the head on had to remove it and shift the cylinder to get the lifters in my only issue got it finished and bike runs great thanks to Hammer Performance and Hammer Dan talked to him on the phone Great Product
I have a question. When I did mine I also had it with the pistons and rings already placed in by you guys. I did however push the piston out a little bit to far and exposed the oil ring. Now I don't know how much the position changed when it popped out. But I simply just squeezed it back in again. Could it have caused any problems by being In a different position to which you guys fitted it ? Thanks Jak
Can that be done with engine in frame? Thinking of buying an 883 and getting your 1275 kit....have to do exhaust & intake mods as well. You do mods to heads, correct?
Yes, the 1275 is a bolt-on that can be installed on a Saturday afternoon without even pulling the engine out of the frame. No mods to the intake or exhaust are required - although about 99% of guys do run aftermarket pieces to make more power. Yes, we are a fully equipped machine shop, including a 5-axis CNC setup to port heads, and we port several hundred sets of heads every year. It's important to match the heads, the cams, and the pistons, not only to fit together with proper clearances, but also to optimize power production.

Question, would you happen to know the socket size for the removal and install for the ACR Solenoid on a 2019 CVO SG?--- thanks-- or where I can purchase one?
So, silly question. If you had a kit with the piston and cylinders separate, could you install the piston into the cylinder (taking care of alignment of course), and THEN install using the method you have just shown?
Sure, and in fact our kits are sold that way by default. The kit instructions cover setting the ring gaps and assembling the pistons and rings into the cylinders. However, we offer an optional service to do all that for you, which greatly simplifies installation and eliminates the need for any special tools on your part. More than 95% of our customers choose that option when they buy a kit from us.
Yes, and that's covered in our kit installation instructions. But if you buy the ring gapping & preassembly service, we take care of that for you. The kit arrives with the pistons and rings pre-installed in the cylinders, ready to bolt on.
Every kit we ship has a bright orange label on the outside of the box that tells you where to find the instructions, which is right here: www.hammerperf.com/ttinstallkit.shtml
Great walk through video. I was not very confident about removing my clutch basket to get to the gearbox. This will help a lot. Thanks, Pete.
I don't even own a Harley but I love watching these videos. It's making me think I should buy a sporty.
Do it
They're great bikes
Thank you very much for all of your hard work on helping us out with learning how to work on our own bikes 👍🤝💯⚡🏁🇺🇲

Hi Jak
No, you should be just fine.
maybe they could put a guideline showing on the piston with a black sharpy and as soon as one sees the line, they don't pull past it. safety line

Do you lube a new piston before putting it in the cylinder?
Are the ring gaps set at different degrees before they're placed in the cylinder?
Yes, and that's covered in our kit installation instructions. But if you buy the ring gapping & preassembly service, we take care of that for you. The kit arrives with the pistons and rings pre-installed in the cylinders, ready to bolt on.
@@HAMMERPERFORMANCE Cool. Thank you.
Do you guys sell the clip install tool?
You don't need a special tool to install the clips. Aaron shows exactly how to do it in the video.
Is it common to do this with the motor removed? Or can it be done with the motor still on the bike?
Normally this is done with the motor still in the frame.
If you guys get a tripod then you could just set the camera up and then the camera guy could help you.
Where is timing zone
Where are these kit instructions
