This f***** just did 5 minutes of talking and didn't tell me a goddamn thing what a waste of my time

This is a great “ done in real time,” “no unnecessary frills” video! Very professional. Great job!

I just purchased a ‘82 FXRS and this is the perfect list for me to use to go through the bike. Much appreciated. 👍

blah blah blah 🤡

I have my second AGM in my beloved EVO, 5 years and counting on this one. I could have really dug having one in my Shovel way back when instead of the car battery.

Could’ve used a part number!

also go 1 tooth larger ft sprocket the speed limit was 55 and they were geared to perform best at 55 now they run to many rpms at 80 fixes the problem

That video had no value whatsoever. Where were the maintenance tips? It should have been titled; "Stage I Your Sportster"... I want my time back.

Thank you my friend that did the trick. My Pops recently passed away and I now have his 95’FXSTS/B AKA BADBOY. I’ve done a few little upgrades and am doing my level best to keep it running and riding properly. Most of my experience is with metric bikes so this is new territory for me. Thanx for keeping it simple. RJ From Georgia

I was looking for a standard center controls and carb. 2005 1200 roadster is the best option for that type of bike. 30000 mile runs like new it is not a cruiser!

Woods 22xe FTW

What do I do about the starter for my 1987 is there a upgrade because it is a fresh motor and hard to start

This guy is cool as hell 😎

In bought the first year Road King in 1994 (built in april), aqua pearl silver, the pulley splines were "nicely" worn away (= disappeared in rusty dust) at 10000 km. I got it under warranty (same width splines, still have PN somewhere, not sure if the 1994 wider one, came that after june ?), mechanic said 1 in 3 were not torqued down correctly in the factory, and I was allowed to repair it myself. The "5th gear" splines were not damaged at all, mechanic thought because I was a "carefull" rider. I simply noticed 2 km from home before a traffic light just off the high way that I had no power to the rear wheel as if clutch was slipping (no loose belt etc.). After this repair I rode it until sold at 74000 km in 2001, had no problems anymore on this nor on other items. Then I had the 1998 FLHTCI overstock in 2001 at very much reduced price (same price as the Road King in 1994 ! ), second generation injection system, only problem was that it gave once in every long holiday trip a hick-up as if one injection (or spark) was missing. I adjusted the idle myself, so not according to the book, but then you need about three times (one time in the dealer workshop may not be good enough), because of removing the airfilter to get at the small torx throttle adjuster screw, and then the cold idle stepper motor screw 2mm allen outside. Thus I managed to get cold idle at 1000 rpm (instead of 2000 rpm at some people), and warm nicely at 800 rpm (instead of 1000 rpm advised because of generator output etc.). If needed (maybe at longer idling) I kept it on 1000 rpm myself, and back to 800 rpm just before sliding silently into first gear. Rode this bike until 2016 sold at 91000 km, no problems with many holiday trips in Europe (I run always totally stock). Then I bought the last (Touring) Twin Cam (I did not know this yet then) 2016 FLHTK, which is my holiday bike now. Custom colour Cosmic Blue Pearl, and also still stock, only the electric water pump failed and replaced it myself "by the new kit", no warranty in 2022, this is a known weak point, different story.......

Can I ask where to get those specialty tools? The adjustment is a actually an 3/16 allen I believe but the nut is 11/16

Love it being born 1956 ....2000 road king stolen from hidden beaches resort blythe ca plus cars generator mail golf carts mike watts owner martin markel meth head u will drug up 24/7

Did teach us shit about adjusting the linkage … you soent 3 minutes going over the same thing lmao

Good Video ❤ THANK YOU I am actually embarrassed I have to CZcams., THIS ! BY FAR THE MOST COMPLICATED BATTERY SET UP I'VE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE. AND I AM 57 YEARS OLD Harley-Davidson really outdid themselves., making this very simple thing unnecessarily complicated

Excellent video on how to do this. Thank you.

cool thank you

Thank you for this video. I have a 2009 Ulyta Classic which I purchased about a month ago. On hot days 95 to 100 degrees my bike does sputtering and loses power. I'm going to try replacing my old gas cap. It's happened three times all on my way home from work on hot summer days.

Great video! Very informative. Thanks!!

What do you do with just the standard proximity key fobs? The ones that are like air tags with no buttons?

Excellent video

Reverse on the transmission is the way to go. Electric reverse terrible waste of money

very good content here, thank you for your knowledge-

I like your videos but I disagree with some of what you I own a88softailand it's on its second time around the clock it's been absolutely bullet proof delcron cased I've done absolutely nothing to the engine I brought it at 98 thou. my m8reckons it's just run in absolutely love evos that much I just bought a 90fxr love em

Can you add more detail about wiring rear speakers? Have a 2011 Ultra Limited. Not sure how to determine which wires are the rear speakers. And, not sure where to splice once I do know which are the correct speaker wires.

You don't have to go through the remove the negative cable stuff. Remove the positive lead. Pull the battery out as far as it will go. Lift the end of the battery up and it will give you enough room to remove the negative line from the battery. I have done this many times as I remove the battery at the end of every season.

Seems to drop into neutral easier when I've got my clutch in and I rev the engine up a bit. Mine seems to stick more when I'm coming to a slow stop.

Would like to see a video like this for the XL Evolution.

I will use a tts 150 or a cycle rama 480 Mt in my 2023 streetbob114

I have a Woods 222 in my 107 and it made a beast emerge from that power plant. It’s awesome (read AWESOME) and I love it!

Sir, this video saved my bacon. I've looked high and low for the torque spec on my 2020 FXST rear axle and could not find it anywhere. Simply don't have the scratch for a manual right now. Thank you!

How do you check the radiator fluid?

Where are parts 2, 3 and 4?

You’d be surprised how hard it is, to find an image ANYWHERE on the net, that you show at 11:40. You will never have any idea just how much you’ve helped me out with that. Including days scouring the net and buying the poorly illustrated Harley work shop manual. So thank you.

Getting ready to do this. Thankfully wiring is already routed through the bars, but the bars are for a brand new road glide, and I'm putting them on an older softail. Brand new 16" Dominator 1.25 Meathooks for 200 bucks? Oh hell yeah. Soldering and heat shrinking all my wires with silver solder. I solder everything, even installing my car stereos.

I am installing them on my 1700

Long trips =earplugs

$80 million in 1981 equals $288 million in the summer of 2024.

Off topic but I was looking for the finish product video of your guys Harley sportster cafe racer.

lol love the zoom in on the horn when talking about the carb.

Finally a video that tells you what ur looking for

Awesome. It’s necessary to put some copper grease?? It’s helpful ???

Fix my hog helped me transition from BMWs to M8 & EVOs. This channel and a service manual make maintenance saved me serious $.

Great video . Thanks 👍

Buy an Indian and just ride it

Changed my rear tire and now I can torque my rear axel bolt to the correct settings and now I feel safe thanx to you...
