True, many HAVE been rebuilt internally, some even new cylinders.And
of course the normal things wear out on them. But much of them ARE original
parts and SOME are totally original. But that's the point- they ARE
rebuildable. You can bore a Harly cylinder out four times (and still within
reason). Since mine was only bored out once in 400,000, well, you do the math
:)
But enough motorcycles in the newsgroup. Didn't mean for it to get this
involved to begin with :)
enjoy,
Brad
