Was just reading on another forum and I came across a topic of crank shifting and twisting problems with the
tc 96 engine. Has anyone heard of this problem? Is it wide spread or have people been pouring to many speed parts into theirt bikes with out reinforcement parts. I just got a new 09 flstf and wonder if
I should be looking for trouble or problems?

Something to check when you change your cams
Most people that drive there bikes reasonably will never get into trouble. When you get into trouble is when you hot rod too much with to much power, the cranks actually twist.
