Dude from a former Master ASE Jag technician, You are a magnificent V twin tech, best ever , you truly are a Master Harley Tech! awesome work and honesty cannot be found in the business these days.Keep up the great work!!
Graciously sharing knowledge is the one of the greatest gifts that you can give to your fellow man. I salute you for taking the time and effort to put these videos together.
I'm no tech but based on another video talking about valve springs, I bet that cam was causing the valve springs to bind and forcing the cams and tappets against each other.
I had three Shovel head bikes in my riding life. I would love to have another one just to play with. Damn good engines and pretty easy to keep running.

You are a wealth of knowledge, and I have learned more about engine building from your videos than anywhere else. Thank you for putting this info out into the world.
Just tore my 99 twincam down today. Had a lifter stick. Replace lifters and put in adjustable push rods. Ran like crap and it was noisy. Pulled cylinders off and connecting rods are way too loose. That’s when I found your video on the teardown. Just wanted you to know I really enjoyed it and Thank you
I only run stock one piece pushrods. Never have to worry about them flexing, never gotta worry about them coming loose, never gotta worry about them hitting anything. I'll remove them via the top until I die.
To articulate your knowledge in a way that it sinks in with someone who has the attention span of a hummingbird on adderall is a gift. Thx Amigo. I shall subscribe. 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
I appreciate the hell out of your videos. I always, always learn something watching the valuable content you produce. I wish I had 1/4 of your knowledge on engine building and machining procedures. Thanks again for the work you put in here. Y’all support Ol’ Kevin and buy your parts through his shop. Ol’ Cornbread does. I got to get me one of his cool retro tee shirts as well. I’m out. Peace out!!
I know u rite the bad thing is I could probably do some but it’s the patience and trying to make sure having the tools my God I’m surprised they don’t make a tool to put fuel in with it’s crazy all the tools you got have but yea wished to man
I'm not a bike guy (or even much of an auto mechanic for that matter) but I understood everything you explained and the "cause & effect" as to what went on with this engine. I have subscribed, and I intend watch more of these vids. Who knows, someday I might buy a bike, and all this knowledge will be very useful.
Enjoyable vid, ur down to earth, no messing around, or aggravating music and give a good explanation. Thanks fer ur video(plus ur working on Harleys, heh)
Truck freight is not particularly expensive so if you live in the continental US you could send him an engine or (weighs less) a stripped core to build. It's quite common to send engines out of state to get what you want. I do.
Great stuff! I have a noisy 110 myself. 2016 CVO Limited with about 38k. No jar of marbles yet, although some ticking, fluttering and the occasional intermittent knock. Other that that she runs great!
I had a mechanic tell me on my evo that 50,000 miles is pushing your luck on the roller tappits . Said that if they mess up and freeze up lots of metal shavings and big mess that usually makes the build extremely difficult .
Hey Kevin,great Video,I talked to you earlier about my 110 and making it a 117,I,m almost scared to ride mine now after watching all the 110 tear downs.unfortunately life got in the way this year,hopefully this winter you can skunk mine.
My 2015 CVO Deluxe has the dreaded lifter failure around 35,000 miles, replaced with S&S Lifters and oil pump, put factory 255 cam back in as S&S doesn't make that size. Good to go so far.
I switched brands exactly for this reason. It's amazing that us Harley Davidson owners actually put up with this stuff from a motorcycle company. We buy a $30000 motorcycle and then start throwing parts at it. I switch to a different brand not necessarily a better brand but at least a brand that we don't have those problems with the bikes. The idea that you buy a motorcycle and you immediately do performance work to the motor is ridiculous. It's a marketing plant it's not your motorcycle.
@@yoso585yea they all have their own problems though it’s just a lot more HD I’ve had various ones they all have their own issues and all parts are high period no matter what it’s is but it is crazy of how they all build them and yet no one is happy the way they are from a fender to fluids
Thank you for your video. It truly is a sum of all parts, the total package working together, that makes it all run well. We should not address one part alone without considering the effects somewhere else.
Only one thing I wish you would add in the teardown videos ,the brand of oil the owners ran in their motors. That would satisfy my curiosity. Thanks for another great video
I like to think I'm absorbing some of that information. I think I am. What I'm actually learning is the right way to "see" what my engine is telling me. Thanks again for all the fun content.
I believe the roller needle bearings in the lifters failed first. The rollers stopped turning causing the roller to drag across the cam surface. Both metal debris from the needle bearings and the cam lobe wear got into the rod bearings causing that bearing to fail.
@kevinbaxter you have broken my mileage record. 15000 on my skunk works and still running. Most miles I have put on an HD motor without a catastrophic failure. Thanks.
I wish I had a shop like yours around my neck of the woods. I heard about a new shop that just opened up and the guy is an ex Harley mechanic. The next time I pass the place, I'll stop in and talk to the guy if I can. He also builds custom chopper from what I hear. Maybe he'll be my guy to work on my trike. It's been sitting for about 2 years with me occasionally starting it. I just got some fresh gas for it but have to get it in the tank.
Kevin, I just discovered your "tear down" series. Very nice! While your descriptions and visual references are informative, have you considered wrapping up the videos with a list of parts to be replaced, or the outcome of a motor (like it was trashed and not worth rebuilding)?
Havent seen one yet not worth rebuilding really. Parts lists vary considerably and so does each persons build. I fear listing items, that some would see that as the only solution....with custom engines, that's not the case but this is a good idea as a guide. Thanks for the insight.
@@KevinBaxter How about this? "These is how the customer had us change, or modify this engine. " I personally, am not as concerned with a brand as much as I am curious about things like: These cams were shot. Or, this bearing was bad which required a new cam plate. Or, the customer decided to go with a ____ rather than just replace the existing _____.
@@KevinBaxter I got the impression that a big issue here was who ever put the new cams in didn't up grade the tappets and didn't put appropriate push rods in? god bless from New Zealand
Stumbled across this video. I'm a gearhead and work on my own bikes. I follow a couple car channels as well. There is a pandemic of bad new parts lately especially lifters! Many car engine builders are reusing lifters if there good. When they go they take out the whole motor. Similar to what you have there. Just an FYI. Great video.
Great tear down video highlighting all problematic areas. Out of interest, would you recommend a complete rebuild or purchase a crate motor for the owner of this 2016 CVO 110?-what would be the most economical?
Hi Kevin. I own and ride this model. In the forums and from other riders, I frequently hear about these engine failures. Generally, between 30-50k miles. I’m at 30k with no issues. What should I do preventative in your opinion, if anything?
@@amirosmanbasic3719 I have a consult tomorrow. At a minimum I plan to replace the lifters, add rocker lockers, cam bearings, new cams and a new cam plate. Thinking about a compression bump but concerned about added heat which could affect longevity of the bike. Want to learn more about both the 113 and 117 bolt on kits.
I got a CVO Fat Boy I think it has 8k on it with a 110 . I bought it drove it home and parked it . I don't trust stock Harley lifters at all including the crank shaft to be honest ..My other two bikes money pits lol have SS engines which seem to be OK. To be honest the 110 I have seems to be a tame compared to the other two ..But it shiny lol. Enjoy the videos
Thanks for another great video. Always learn something. A lifetime of knowledge and willing to share it, you're a good man. Glad your shop is staying busy!
BTW Crown Alloys make a great MIG wire for cast iron suited to machinery repair and of course jug mods. It uses argon shielding gas which you'll have anyway for TIG.

Agreed. 💯 %
You have got to be one of the best v-twin gearheads in the country...No doubt !!!
This is a terrific video. It's hard to believe that 50K miles could do so much damage. Thanks for the work!
I had a noise from a failed bearing on my Ducati 900 POS !!! oh it failed at 197.000 miles 😊😊😊😊😊
Bad maintenance and hard riding go a long way
At the beginning of the video he mentions about wrong things that were built in the engine.
I'm no tech but based on another video talking about valve springs, I bet that cam was causing the valve springs to bind and forcing the cams and tappets against each other.
China supplied components?

I had a 76 superglid 3:14 e and I loved that bike. Shovelhead ran sweet and never gave me a problem.
poorly made, oil leaking pieces of crap
You are a wealth of knowledge, and I have learned more about engine building from your videos than anywhere else. Thank you for putting this info out into the world.
Thank you very much!
When my engine needs a rebuild this is who I will have do it. Kevin is the real deal.
I've been a motorsports guy my whole life. You have to be a good detective to do a forensic teardown. Nice job. From a 50 year wrench.
Just tore my 99 twincam down today. Had a lifter stick. Replace lifters and put in adjustable push rods. Ran like crap and it was noisy. Pulled cylinders off and connecting rods are way too loose. That’s when I found your video on the teardown. Just wanted you to know I really enjoyed it and Thank you
Thank you Craig. Best of luck sir!
I only run stock one piece pushrods. Never have to worry about them flexing, never gotta worry about them coming loose, never gotta worry about them hitting anything. I'll remove them via the top until I die.
Was a machinist for a couple years and found this teardown interesting. Wish I learned this years ago.
You've got to hate it when Kevin is tearing down your motor and says "Hmm, interesting."
Yea just look the other way if your there r watching
Amen!
😂
I'd rather hear my surgeon say it while looking at my x-ray than my engine tech.
True!!!
Fascinating to watch, you are great at describing what we are seeing. From a non mechanic who would never do what you’re doing it’s very impressive!
Excellent detective work. The builder just slapped that engine together without enough knowledge.👋👍
Gee I love listening to a guy who knows his stuff.
To articulate your knowledge in a way that it sinks in with someone who has the attention span of a hummingbird on adderall is a gift. Thx Amigo. I shall subscribe.

Thanks Kevin. I watched this as soon as I got home from work. Perfect timing.
From one Kevin to another, this was a very interesting tear down to watch. Thanks for walking us through it.

I'm learning a lot working on my 71 Triumph T120R bobber. This motor is so simple.
Very knowledgeable builder, great video
Thank you Kevin if only they could get it right the first time ..👍🏻🇦🇺
Kevin's the best HD mechanic on the planet IMO
Pulls rocker lids “ can ya see the gold ? Ya” 😆 gets me every time !
thank you Kevin ,,l like the way you go into detail and tell why this happened and causes and effect
I'm not a bike guy (or even much of an auto mechanic for that matter) but I understood everything you explained and the "cause & effect" as to what went on with this engine.
I have subscribed, and I intend watch more of these vids. Who knows, someday I might buy a bike, and all this knowledge will be very useful.
Great video by far the best on TH-cam for this kind of information 🙏🙏
Glad you think so! Thank you.
Again, another amazing video! I have learned so much watching your videos Mr. Baxter. Kudos to you!
Enjoyable vid, ur down to earth, no messing around, or aggravating music and give a good explanation. Thanks fer ur video(plus ur working on Harleys, heh)
Wow! the teardown and analysis of this engine condition amazes me.
I wish I lived closer to KB so I could have his shop do my engine work.
You and me both
Truck freight is not particularly expensive so if you live in the continental US you could send him an engine or (weighs less) a stripped core to build. It's quite common to send engines out of state to get what you want. I do.
You do very good job explaining what went wrong and what happened.....Thanks for taking the time to explain things in layman's terms...
This is another excellent video. That's an awful lot of damage for 50,000 miles: Lower end, cams, lifters, etc.
Thanks for all you share Kevin, the depth of your explanations for cause and repair are greatly appreciated!!!
Shout out to Kevin...
Thank you Sir, i have learned so much from you.
Great video !!!
I’m an engine builder, but never a Harley v twin.
Super informative video.
Thank you for the lesson.
Great job showing and telling, great job on the finding the bad parts. and have a great day see ya on the next video see ya bye.
Thank you sir, for taking the time to share your talent and gift.
Great stuff! I have a noisy 110 myself. 2016 CVO Limited with about 38k. No jar of marbles yet, although some ticking, fluttering and the occasional intermittent knock. Other that that she runs great!
Put lifters in it before they frag.
Awesome tear down and diagnosis. Whoever worked on it mustve had stock in thread sealer and big gaskets.
That’s a sweet looking shovel. Good luck with it.
Great video, the description as u go along disassembling everything is cool.
Shovels are my favorite engines . Love the look of the rocker boxes.
Still rocking my dad's 81 shovel 🤘
I had a mechanic tell me on my evo that 50,000 miles is pushing your luck on the roller tappits .
Said that if they mess up and freeze up lots of metal shavings and big mess that usually makes the build extremely difficult .

Honda makes a good motorcycle.
Thank you for your video. It truly is a sum of all parts, the total package working together, that makes it all run well. We should not address one part alone without considering the effects somewhere else.
Finally a liquid cooled head ... and some beneficial head gasket information... great informative videos !!! Thank u ..
Glad you liked it!
There's golden nuggets in every video, just have to know when you find it. Don't happen to need any help Kevin?
Wow - I just keep learning as I watch your videos, thank you sir!
A CVO with only 50 thousand miles Wow no good No reason to touch a CVO motor That motor is a work of art Keep it stock
Stock is trick.
I learned it you want too purchase a Harley you can have 100% confidence in it not failing, buy a Sportster.
I enjoyed this breakdown immensely.
He’s like the Bill Nye the Science Guy of HD Motors. He should have his own TV show! also learn something every time.
Only one thing I wish you would add in the teardown videos ,the brand of oil the owners ran in their motors. That would satisfy my curiosity. Thanks for another great video
Liking my evo more with each video. I wont get there first, but ill get there, ha!
Kevin, thanks for the video. Glad to see you're able to squeeze one in ocassionally.
I like stuff like Graveyard Cars, Gas Monkey Garage. Your shop is the first for that format, I'll be looking forward to more.
Really nice work, and I enjoy just listening to a great craftsman who doesn’t feel the need to curse like an idiot 😊

Got a 04 Yamaha roadstar no problem's the same engine Harley copied for it's Milwaukee 8,only harly still has problems
