Very nice. Absolutely nothing wrong with this engine.

I was looking around at other oil analysis and seen a wide number like 20 to 1700PPM of magnesium in different oils.

I agree, I think next oil change wear metals should be lower. I'm guessing Oil Analyzers has not been notified of changes in oil recipe??That guy is me.. Oil has been changed 5 times.

Yes, this was the first sample. Yes, I will take more samples in the future.

Nope clutch and engine is separate. The last 2 twin cam engines I had took about 20,000 miles for wear metals to drop where they should be. Hopefully this M8 is no different.

I put everything together. Fuel Moto ported the heads and Darkhorse did the lower end. I installed the tune from Fuel Moto to complete the 3 heat cycles and brought to a local tuner.

Power is impressive. I downshift a lot less now while pulling a trailer. I will do this to the next bike much sooner because it's such a blast to ride. Yes, all samples are MCV. Thanks for the heads up on VIN. Probably should have covered it up. You will have a blast when you do the engine...

This looks better.

I rebuilt engine over the winter. !0,000 miles on rebuild. Fuel Moto 107, Wood 777 cams, Level B heads and lower end done by Darkhorse. 128.5ft.lb. torque Samples 13 and 14 were from rebuild. Sorry for the small print not sure how to fix it.

Engine wear still looking good.
