Read this forum on the dragon slayer cranks. USA machined, not forged.

Not sure, so I called him and left a voice mail for him to call me. As soon as I find out I'll let you know.

i too had bad luck on an eagle crank but it was there cast replacement it was the roughest looking crank i have ever seen, i use the howards cranks they are true american and they have callies do all there work and it is a very nice peice and i checked them all before use and they are very acurate

Hey bigcrunch...I talked to my friend and he said that he has a billet shaft. He has the motor apart and everything "looks" OK. But he is getting ready to take his stuff to Oddys for inspection.

ts1955, thanks for checking the billet Ohio crank priced under $1k might be a good deal

My bad, they are actually imported from Japan and 100% finished by Callies. Callies fells like it is the strongest forging on the market, besides for buying billet.

After my EAGLE crank broke after 150 street miles, I bought Ohio. Eagle WON`T stand behind their product. I wouldn`t reccomend Eagle at all. I have a 500 dollar Eagle door stop now! :lol:
