Zodiac Additions
Andrews M-8 Camshafts
Zodiac says that with 107 and 114 cubic inch engine sizes and high efficiency four-valve heads, Milwaukee-Eight engines “show great potential for performance gains, especially with new design Andrews Milwaukee-Eight series camshafts.
“Cam timing specs for four-valve heads look very different from camshafts designed for two-valve applications – they have much greater flow efficiency, so listed cam timing durations are a lot shorter. Bolt-in cams can be used with stock pushrods, however, for ease of installation we recommend the use of Andrews EZ-Install Chrome-Moly pushrods.”
The available Andrews range includes M450 and M460 bolt-in cams for 107” engines; M462 and M464 for 107 and 114 inchers; M504 cam for use with hi-lift valve springs and the M520 performance cam for more torque and power from modified 114 cubic inch engines.
Bitubo M-8 Softail Rear Shocks
Italian suspension manufacturer Bitubo has designed these multi-adjustable shocks as stock replacement for the 2018 Softail monoshock. “Bitubo focused on the best possible comfort in combination with the maximum degree of ride control for solo and two-up riding with or without luggage.”
Available in a “Dark Edition” black finish, they feature hydraulic spring preload, adjustable rebound and length adjustments with a remote adjusting knob. The Fat Bob version is also offered with a red spring for a “racy look”. The length adjustment increases or reduces the ride height.
For ’18-up FXBR and FXBRS Breakout, FLFB and FLFBS Fat Boy and FLSB Sport Glide, the standard length is 12 1/2” (318 mm), adjustable in length from 313 through 322 mm with black spring. For ’18-up FXFB and FXFBS Fat Bob (with black or red spring), the standard length is 13” (330 mm), adjustable in from 326 through 334 mm.
Clip-On Handlebars
Made from high-tensile steel with dimples for routing the switch wiring, Zodiac says these clip-ons are “great for Cafe Racer style bikes.”
Available in chrome or black for 39 mm or 41 mm forks.
Tier-1 Tuner
“Fuel maps - stock or any custom performance map - are made by people. They therefore represent the best assessment or guess of the person calibrating them. For the first time ever, the advanced technology of the Tier-1Tuner eliminates that variable, requiring no human interactions.
“Using the bike’s own Inertia Vs Acceleration as the “dyno”, and Tier-1’s patented technology as the operator, this unit empirically tests every performance squirt of fuel and delivers a measurement guaranteed to make the bike perform better. Instead of having to work with just one or two fuel values to cover a 500 rpm range, the rider now has 10 to 20 fuel values optimizing the same 500 rpm range, all in real time under real life driving conditions.”
The Tier-1Tuner unit adds a “closed loop” control system to the currently installed fuel injection system while it is in performance mode. The unit adjusts fuel while receiving feedback from the engine’s acceleration in Real Time/Real Life. The fuel is changed to whatever is needed to optimize the engine’s acceleration while in performance mode and can further improve the acceleration and performance of an already tuned bike. Available for a wide range of Harley Street, XL, Touring, Softail, Dyna and Police models, in some cases going as far back as ‘95 Touring and ‘01 Softails, plus ’13-up Indian 111” models, ’15-upScouts, ‘17 Victory Octane and ’08-‘17 Victory 100 and 106”models.
‘54-’64 Trumpet Horn
The trumpet horn was standard on the 6 volt generator ‘54-‘64 Panhead Big Twins and disappeared from the ‘65 model when the factory went to 12 volt. These complete kits have a chrome horn and chrome Power Pack cover and include all required hardware - “great for those who prefer the classic look” on later 12 volt models such as ‘66-‘84 Shovelheads, ‘84-‘99 Softails and 6 or 12 volt ‘57-‘85 Sportsters.
Competition Master Advance Unit by APM
This American made advance weight assembly by American Prime Mtg. features a shaft and plate made from precision machined stainless steel. The heat-treated and high-tech polymer treated weights are held in place with stainless steel pins. The springs are made from high quality, phosphate-coated, spring-tempered music wire, wound to exact specifications for proper advancement of the weight and heat-treated and cadmium-plated for durability, smoother idle and improved throttle response. Zodiac says that this “superior assembly can be used for all points systems and Dyna S, Daytona TwinTec VT-I and other electronic ignition systems that require a mechanical advance unit.”
Rocket Style Muffler
This is a very accurate reproduction of the OEM rocket style muffler found on ’41-‘49 U, UH, UL, ULH, E, EL, F, FL and FLH Knucklehead, Flathead and Panhead Big Twins. Available in black or chrome.
