Swing arm is great. Working well . I didn’t see any options for spools when I ordered mine. Yes bolted on directly with no modifications. A1 states you can run 15” shocks with the high lifter swing arm . Plenty of clearance for the trans.

@@T-Machinist Perfect. Ill check with them on spools. Thanks. 👍

I will update soon was at the drag strip this last Friday. I ran a 11.46 on the sporster S . It is faster than my 24 Roadglide. I agree lol Im terrible at making these videos.

Thank you for the info! After owning a Pan America and having ridden a buddy’s Sportster S, I thought it was an interesting question. I currently have a 2024 Street Glide and wonder whether it would make sense to spend money on HP mods or just get a second bike, like another PanAm or Sporty S.

I like the Sportster S . I know tuning is available for the new 2024 tourings,but I’m having so much fun on the sportster . I probably will do a big cam , ported intake, and a big throttle body , keep the heads stock on the roadglide. I’m going to wait and see who makes the best bolt in cam. The only thing I miss is not having the bags to put my wallet , phone and keys in. I wish there was a button release flip open seat and some storage under the tail section on the sportster.

In the comments section on one of the videos I answered this question. Shouldn’t be too hard to find. Not a whole lot of comments. It does require some machining. If you have access or know someone that could do it for you.

Thanks

Thrashin 6.5” pullbacks, with pull back plate, I made spacers so the pull back plate sits outside the clam shell cover. Aggressive mid bend bars. Not for the 2024 modified to work. No it doesn’t block the screen at all.

Thanks … I prefer the look without the badges.

Will do … thanks . I would finish the videos for the paint if I had my bike. It’s at the dealership. Electrical problems going on two weeks. I went to pick it up today. Drove it 1/4 mile got an indicator light I never seen before turned around to go back and ask. Bike died in the parking lot back at the dealer. No electrical power at all.

Absolutely!!! I can’t wait.

Thanks!!! Absolutely!!! That would be sweet.

I agree winter is a choice time to do this.

That’s what I was thinking. We’ll see.

Both wheels are replaced with 17” gsxr wheels, less unsprung weight which lets the suspension work better. Less rotating mass better handling. Saves 35 lbs. off the bike weight. Way more tire selections.

Yes with all the after market parts for these bikes you can build pretty much what you want.

Absolutely the best setup for performance all around. Mike from A1 is supper helpful and knowledgeable on making bikes quick.

I had this same swing arm on my 2019 Roadglide. That bike had way more power than this one. Never had any issues. The only thing is if you have legend revo arcs . On the high lifter swing arm you can’t run it in the stock height position. The bottom of spring perch contacts the high lifter mount. If you have stock or ohlins there isn’t any problem. If you have legend revo A shocks you can flip them upside down. Or A1 has a swing arm without the high lifter option , there won’t be any problems with shocks if you don’t desire an increased ride height.

Thank you. Mike is very knowledgeable guy , he was very helpful with my questions I had regarding the first time I purchased this swing arm.

I really like the idea of mid controls as well. In my opinion they don’t make a seat high enough to run true mid controls without being uncomfortable.

Yes I thought I would be sick oh it by now. Not the case. I just had so many Blake bikes before I wanted something different that doesn’t show all the spider scratches so easily.

I’m not sure I understand your question. Yes all motorcycles have some sort of swing arm , unless it is rigid mounted. This is just a lighter option.

If you have the full length exhaust running out the back. The swing arm is at more of an angle. The axle will hit your muffler.

@@T-Machinist i have a short exhaust but the web site said yes on yours but no on the cvo and cvo st

@@timnevitt2993I would just call them and ask . I’m not sure.

The purpose of the 17” sport bike wheels is to reduce weight 35lbs worth , less unsprung weight your suspension works better, better tire selections, less rotating mass = better handling. Little smaller diameter in back = better acceleration.

I really like them. The stock bars are nice this year, but I like the looks of the Thrashin set up and I have the pull back plate along with the 6.5 “ pull back risers. It’s not the typical Thrashin set up they are selling for the 2024. I had to make 1.5” spacer for under the pull back plate for it to work. The pull back plate then sits outside the clam shell. I think Thrashin just uses the 9” in the stock location. Yes I believe it’s more comfortable. I like the bars close so I have more of an upright riding position.

Hopefully with the big pan American motor.

Yes you’re absolutely right.

In my opinion it’s well worth the money.

I will try the best I can. Pretty limited on camera skills.

Thanks . I appreciate it.

same just the oil after cleaning the filter is now black. I sent you the amazon link

I actually dyed the air filter with RIT clothing dye before using the black oil.

Thanks for the info

Maybe do a video on it.

Thankyou. I appreciate it . I think I’m going to black out the lifter covers and pushrod tubes next. Going to paint them with bc/cc I’m to cheap to buy the replacement black powder coated stuff, plus I don’t want to wait after I ordering it.The painted stuff doesn’t show scratches as easy as that powder coat does during routine cleanings.

Till Death cycles

@@T-Machinist awesome thank you I’ll go check them out

No tuning available yet, really close I’m guessing. Can’t wait, man it seems like forever.

@@T-Machinist how u get out the rev limited

@@jamesotz2637 You can’t remove it without tuning. The on off rev limiter is talking about the pass in the video. The bike front end comes up hits the rev limiter the front end comes down bounces bike is now off the rev limiter throttle still wide open . The front end then comes up again.

I used the 511 cam and Screamin’ eagle prostreet tuner. If your bike is a cvo I don’t believe anything is available. If your bike is a cvo st it already has this same camshaft.

Yes I still have abs. You would have to make new front spacers,run a radial caliper set up with the conversion mounts, space the mounts to line up the front rotors. On the back you have to modify the cushion drive , modify the stock rear brake bracket milling some material off so everything lines up centered and in line with the front wheel, and make a new spacer for the drive side.

Thankyou

Yes I figured it wouldn’t be for everyone. Thanks appreciate it. My goal is to get this bike under the low rider st weight. Replacing the swing arm with a super light version next.

Brother, I can’t wait for you to keep going at it! I’m gonna be doing the same to mine!

Thanks appreciate the support. Go for it that’s why I’m making these videos. This bike will way out perform the cvo st in the end. I’m sure you will have as much fun as I . Enjoy

Yes I understand, thanks for the feedback. The first time I seen these on a video I thought the same . The technology in these lights is really something special. They aren’t some cheap led that you buy off of Amazon. When traveling behind the lights appear way bigger almost like 6” diameter lights. The camera just doesn’t pick it up.

@@T-Machinist that sounds cool.

I don’t think they make a black filter. I turned mine black by the use of clothing dye and k&n black oil.

Camera doesn’t pick up how bright they are. They are very bright when you are behind in a car. At night they ridiculously bright at night. I’ve had this set up before. Very comfortable with these.

Thank you

I didn’t my bike only had 56 miles on it at the time of the cam swap.

@@T-Machinist ok, mine has 1000mi on it and will be doing this cam install probably next weekend. Was just wondering if I should wait until next year when better cams/tuning will be available to change it or do it now.

It’s up to you. I will be upgrading asap whenever bigger throttle bodies, ported intake manifolds, and tuning become available. The cam does make a big difference though. I had a 23 Roadglide st with a 64mm throttle body, ward ported manifold and the wood 777xe cam which is the biggest woods cam for stock valve springs. The fastest that bike ran was a 11.67 et. My 2024 ran 11.72 et. So the new heads in this bike are way better. Im real excited for the aftermarket to catch up.

@@T-Machinist Haha that’s funny I had a 23’ SG ST but I only had slip-ons on it. Was about to some motor work then I started hearing about the 24’ redesign so I held off. I’m glad I did, I sold the SG and got a 24’ RG. These 24’s are so much better in every way. I’m excited for the aftermarket to catch up also. Looks like it’ll just be SE stuff for this summer though 🍻

If you’re doing the work yourself, it’s well worth the money for the cam pro street tuner, and adjustable push rods.
