The Harley-Davidson Custom Vehicle Operations (CVO) team pumps upits wild Screamin’ Eagle Road King for 2003 with the biggestdisplacement engine ever offered in a production Harley-Davidsonmotorcycle a 103 cubic-inch (1690cc) Twin Cam V-Twin tuned to producemore than 100 lb-ft of torque.
Based on the popular FLHRI Road King model, the 2003 CVO Screamin’Eagle Road King features a host of exclusive custom features andaccessories from Harley-Davidson Genuine Motor Accessories. Theheart of the 2003 Screamin’ Eagle Road King, however, is the enginecreated by combining Screamin’ Eagle Big Bore cylinders and a strokerflywheel and rod assembly to the standard Harley-Davidson Twin Cam 88engine. Bore and stroke grows from 3.75 x 4.00 inches to 3.87 x 4.37inches, while displacement is boosted from 88 ci (1450cc) to 103 ci(1690cc). Compression is bumped up slightly, from 8.9:1 to 9.0:1.
The standard EFI system is reprogrammed to match the increaseddisplacement while retaining the crisp throttle response of the stockTwin Cam 88 EFI engine. The drivetrain is reinforced with ahigh-performance hydraulically actuated clutch, a custom oil coolerand a high-strength final drive belt. The result is a motor thatmeets 50-state emissions and sound regulations yet pumps out 100lb.-ft. of arm-stretching V-Twin torque at 3500 rpm, a 20 percentincrease over the stock Twin Cam 88 engine. The engine will beavailable in silver with chrome trim and is fitted with chromeTouring Mufflers.
