So That’s How That Works… | 1984 Harley Davidson FLT Tour Glide | Wheel Removal and Inspection
The time has come to get some new rubber on the ole girl, and while I’m at it learning just how the rear wheel / sprocket are on there. Yeah ditching the enclosure seems like the right decision… hopefully that proves to be true as I continue towards the goal of long distance grand American touring!

Bear with me… this is about to get messy | 1984 FLT Tour Glide | Final Drive Chain | Bonus Stage
zhlédnutí 9KPřed 9 hodinami
Now wanting to stay with a chain drive for two reasons: simplicity, it’s already there and the trans seems okay, and, it’s got a bit of an old school vibe. Time to dig into the enclosure and see what’s involved in swapping for an o-ring / x-ring exposed chain and if the existing sprockets are in any sort of useable condition. Was expecting way more of a mess, but seems most of the gear oil had ...

Making some progress! Will have that Belt Parkway test ride soon! So I used my ‘96 Fatboy as a coil tester, confirmed the coil was good even though it tested outside of my repair manual specifications. Confirming the likelihood that the module was the issue. So replaced the module (and sensor) with an Ultima (Dynatech) 2000i which is an all in one unit, relatively straight forward installation....

To those who said start simple and check if the trans has oil, thank you… as you can see in this video the trans had mud in it! Hopefully this is a positive trend that continues with this bike and the end result may just be riding it from NYC to Sturgis in 2025!
One step forward… two steps back | 1984 Harley Davidson FLT Tour Glide | Lost Spark No Start

Lost spark… frustrating results… but when life tests you at times with multiple setbacks stay resolute in the mission. I’ll be getting this old Tour Glide roadworthy and racking up the miles!
First ride after 20 years leaves me questioning my life decisions | 1984 Harley Davidson Tour Glide

Desperate times lead to desperate actions, dropping the bike onto the left side works to shuffle fuel around till I can fix the issue. Otherwise I think the test ride is a success!!!
Harley Davidson FLT sitting 20 years… how does it run? | 1984 Harley Davidson Tour Glide Classic

Essentially abandoned for 20 years this 1984 Harley Davidson FLT Tour Glide Classic project bike gets a carb rebuild and some fresh fuel to see if and how it runs. Long term plans are to go through the entire bike but it’s important to know what works and what doesn’t… this is the first steps

First fire (literally) after 20 years | 1984 Harley Davidson FLT Tour Glide Classic
zhlédnutí 1,8KPřed 21 dnem
I’ve started repairs on my new project, the 1984 FLT that’s been sitting 20 years… first issue no spark, checked all connections and found some issue with the coil power blade connections. While I wait for the carb rebuild kit I figured let’s check if it makes noise and fire with the help of a little starting fluid. It did both! Very good feeling and I’m certain she will run well once the rebui...

Here’s my new to me early 1984 Harley Davidson FLT Tour Glide Classic powered by a first year Evolution engine, early 5 speed transmission, enclosed (oil bath) chain final drive project that’s been sitting for nearly 20 years.

Have you done the Black Rain thing yet? "Hey I got 50 on Nick, man!"
This is the worst motorcycle in the world to replace a tire or replace the chain. I can do a top end job faster….:)
...and it doesn't want to run. Sounds like it's doing the Harley thing.
It doesn’t want to… but it will! 😂
Thats Awesome
Is lane filtering legal in NY? I didn't know they made it legal. Or are you just doing it anyway?
@@m3talc0re what’s legal in NYC is quite questionable these days 😉
I have a Suzuki dr 500 1984 bro old bikes are a vibe
1984 harleys are the worst.
Maybe, but sometimes challenges in life are a good think 🤪
I have the same Motorcycle, Same color.. Mine has 5700 miles on it..
5700 miles! 😳
Just curious how do you operate these jacks to prop the bike up?
So I carefully use a bluepoint aluminum jack I’ve had for like 20 years, and then place the jack-stands. I only do this with my Harley’s but it seems to work fairly well.
Bro has the life that I want! great vid bud 🙌
Old bikes , GTR in the garage, did i spot a chevy impala in your niebours drive ? ...
Yup ‘96 Impala SS, we bought it new when we found out they were discontinuing them, great car 👍🏻
Where is this I’ve never seen such a place I’m from Florida
Brooklyn, NY
Cool old bike. I once bought a '89 FLHS new. The streets of Brooklyn gave me a cold sweat
Cool! And they give me sweats sometimes too 😳
watched all these Harley videos for now, really fascinating, and learning a lot as well from it, keep up the good work, can't wait to see more
Thank you! Still lots to do just never enough time lol
beautiful ASMR video. Thank you
this was actually a very interesting video tho
GTR and a Green Ducati in the garage ? dang
Pretty neat watching ya work on this old bike. Came into my feed and watched the first video on this bike and now all the others. Thanks.

Hey, loving this Harley project, awesome man. I so adore the styling of your Harley, iconic shape and design......wonderful. I've now subscribed to your channel. Love how your kinda getting into all the bits of it, love stuff like that myself. Brilliant...! Keep at it. Best regards from Scotland (UK). Peter
Thank you for the kind words! 👏
Thanks a lot for sharing all of your progress and documenting it. I love motorcycles, but I'm a noob at mechanics and this gives me a bigger picture of how to solve things.
Thank you and yeah we all start somewhere, remember man put these things together so man can fix them!
@@tta850 Nice way to see it 👊🏽 . I'm up to date with your vids; I'm waiting on the new one, keep it up and thanks for sharing your knowledge
holy cow do you know the person with the 98 ish black impala ?
Yup ‘96 Impala SS, we bought it new when we found out they were going to be discontinued, it’s been a great car 👍🏻
I hate working on chains. But ,Better than Belts. Shaft is the way to go. Still,I prefer chains.
Is that green bike in the back a Ducati V2/V4? didn't get a good look at it.
Green one is a V4
It's up to you bud, but if it were my bike I would completely rebuild all the brake calipers since I already have the wheels off. I know you said the pads still look good. But those brakes are still over 40 years old. For me, I would have greater peace of mind if I went through them all with a fine tooth comb, knowing they'll work when I need them to. Awesome project bike, bud. It's interesting and fun following your progress.
Thinking about the calipers, I think I want to attack the brake lines and update the master first and then we will see
That was like a 100 meters at most, you could have easily pushed that back...
True but I learned what the issue was AND didn’t have to push 👍🏻
Jst dealing with this type of ride with a grom clone that was rode hard..its getting better and been fun.ive learned alot
Good shit man , last year my friend was released from federal,16 years and his 84 sat outside, I replaced a lot of stuff but it's running now ,without the enclosed chain .
I’m really enjoying this series you’re doing a great job
Thank you! 🙏
(knocks on wood) I've never had a clip break on a chain. been riding old Harleys since i was a kid.(40 now) you wouldn't think they last, but did for me
I’ve heard the same from many… personal preference I guess plus there is some satisfaction with riveting a chain for me
is this bensonhurst lmaoo

What's songs plays at 9:20 in the background?
Honestly I have no idea, it’s just background noise so I can concentrate while I work on stuff 🤷🏻♂️
What did you use to record the video, and how do you have it mounted?
GoPro on a necklace mount, it’s nice cause it stays out of the way and lets me work and talk 👍🏻
I was going to complement you on your copper looking chrome pipes then i noticed gtr and kawi hahaha that explains it
I take no credit 😂
That bike looks dope.
lmao that thing looks like a piece of shit - my favourite part is the mirrors that somehow don't function as mirrors anymore. Props to the restoration effort.
They look like mirrors though 🤣 wonder if they will clean up some 🤔
Gday from Australia! Great videos mate!!
@@scottalexander3463 thank you!
Just discovered this series and loving it. I just got my first bike this season and have been fun learning how to work on it
That’s awesome, ride and wrench on your machine it is such an experience for sure! 💯
Rust oleum has a rust reformer that sprays on clear but converts it into a paint able black primer which blends in well with old black paint. Great for someone who wants the original paint with the worn look to it. If you get it make sure it says sprays on clear but dries black, because there are two kinds the other one sprays on black.
Good to know 👍🏻
Get a parts book, they are great help for part numbers and assembly.
Game has amazing graphics, especially that first person view, just wish I could skip all the cutscenes of bike not working. 🤣
🤣
Seeing your garage makes me question MY life decisions!!!!!!!!!!! Common man ! Live de Dream ! All the best to you mate. Stay strong!
I don't even have a bike but I'm addicted to this project, it's really interesting to see, you should make the videos a bit longer.
Thanks, some might be longer, still lots to do before attempting a ride across the country next year (well South Dakota but from NYC that’s close enough lol)
I am loving these videos, really great work! It's really cool to see with hand tools and time a neglected bike can come back to life.
Simple things like this clear my mind, power tools would drive me nuts lol
Good video again. Where did you manage to find a new dash for the bike (instrument cluster)
Believe it or not eBay

Even funnier to see it towing a trailer with a Harley in it 😂

Brother. The whole planet is watching and hoping for the best for the machine. Take care of both y'all
Appreciate that! Thank you 🙏
u a smart dude mf. love from li

Get rid of the ugly seat ,that will be huge, put a original decal on the tank that's missing, keep the patina of the bike its awesome
Good idea… the mark where the original decal was is still there, now to find one! Thanks 🙏
@Luis-pz6ni I've put thousands of miles on those old seats. In my opinion it's the most comfortable seat ever made. I say keep it regardless of how it looks.
@@kennethwise7108 so I’ve actually been in touch with Corbin and they will rebuild the saddle that’s currently on the bike, thinking that’s the way I’m gonna go because for one I agree the seat is comfortable and two it stays with the history the bike has from the original owner and his travels across this great country!
@kennethwise7108 nah its ugly get rid of it ,way better after market options to dress that old sled up ,just a personal preference though.
@Luis-pz6ni ugly is in. Totally serious, the uglier the better. By brother has an old evo that looks like it came from the bottom of the ocean and when he parks it people come flocking to it and they take all kinda pictures of it. There's not one piece of chrome on the entire motorcycle and it gets more attention than a 6 figure motorcycle. It's name is "The Crust". It's also got a larva of flies that travel around with it and the bike smells bad. It's downright hilarious! Lol
