I'm riding an '01 Softail Standard with 149,850 miles on it, original owner. It went to 95" and a geared Andrews cam at 65K, still with original heads. Still runs just great!
Darryl Stanford ,that's awesome,I'm hoping to get alot of miles out of my 01 currently at 71k super strong! No rattle's at all
Wow not bad ! I have a 2003 with 33,000 best bikes ever.. I have 95 inch and heads. I trip over the old. Heads and jugs everytime I go in the garage lol
I had an '86 softail and never used the choke to start it. Lived in southern states of Australia. Just 2 twists of throttle then hit the go button. Loved that bike. Cheers from Australia...just subbed your channel
2003 cold start with no choke is no joke especially with that many miles... This bike was loved!
Ser Jorel Or is running rich
its in a heated building WTH
that's considered a cold start if the engine is ambient temp.
I'll bet any money that the previous owner was meticulous with oil and fluid changes. That's why this bike runs so nice. Also, someone jetted that carburetor perfectly! I agree with you about radios on motorcycles as well. The motorcycle is the music!!!
Indeed man, indeed. Everything you said, about the fluids, carb, and the music, all of them are correct.
It needs a 3 size up on the pilot , Popping on decell, My FXST is dialed in and I know how to do it..I ended up with pilot 48 and main 180 V&H drag pipes
You should let the motor idle for a few minutes,while you do a walk around.
Then ride it,
Instead of two videos.
This way you can get more bikes shown sooner,and there's that added benefit of giving the motor a proper warm up.
The engine really warms up faster if you start rolling, but at low revs. Though maybe it was different with carburators…
I have a 02 FLSTC and a 72 FLH police special and I like them I do have windshields on them both but I like the wind.
I was blessed to work with "Step Stevenson" at Step's Chop shop in Bremerton, Washington. one of his bikes was a first edition evo softail he bought new 84 as I recall. He rode it to work on occasion, not very far as it made a disturbing engine noise we never heard before. He said he wanted to ride it until something poked out of the machine. He didn't take it apart as it had in excess of 160,000 documented miles on it. Sadly he passed before getting an answer.
Great Standard Shawn. Just like the Sportster and Super Glide; the simplicity of the machine it attractive to me.
No radio, cruise control, GPS, traction control etc. Just fill it up and go.
Im happy to see this.. I am looking at 2002 Heritage softail classic firefighter se. and it has 22,000 miles about.. and I was not sure if that was considered high or not.. Seeing this bike with this mileage is amazing... Do you guys think it has been rebuilt at that high of mileage ? the one in the video? Im new to harleys so this is all a learning curve to me.. So the more comments the better.. Id appreciate it!
This is so cool, never thought a softail would be interesting, this thing runs great. I wonder if it ride across the country.
I luv riding been doing it 42 years...
I had a 1995 Softtail, and had 200,000 miles on it and the Engine and Transmiossion were NEVER apart. I can't say the same for the Starter Clutch or Primary.
Pretty well known issue for Evo's to have starter clutch problems.
I have an 883 Sportster w/20,000 miles. Only use AMSOIL (20W - 50) both holes. No matter how hot the day time temp outside it only runs at like about 175 degrees Fahrenheit. No leaks anywhere and shifts so smoothly.
It's called basic maintenance,,
And for the naysayers that don't like to use the seafoam or the Marvel Mystery Oil or any additive in their fuel well they're just missing a lot more miles they could have had on their bike that's also maintenance that people forget,,, and the one least most maintain thing on the bike is evacuating refilling and bleeding your brakes should be done minimum once every two years..
And correct clutch adjustment,,
When you get that many miles on a bike you know how to do your maintenance and you do your homework can you keep it out of that stealership where they f****** rob you blind... Keep the shiny side up in the rubber side down,,,
Is sea foam that good .what about b12
@@robertmoore1123 how much marvel mystery do you put in your tank?
Softail standards literally run forever. I’ve seen one beat up and it ran like a dream!
I bought my '96 Softail EVO last Spring with 39,000 miles. It's been rejetted and it starts without the choke. I really enjoy the bike, but it's very slow accellerating. Previous bikes include GSXR 1100s and Yamaha V-Max's. I think a good 250cc would out accellerate it. I have to be careful passing the logging trucks on the two lanes roads here in Northern Maine.
Yeah those Evo's don't make much power. 50ish hp to the wheel, not great. However they're easy too get good power out of.
70 bhp out of a TC 88 can be easily obtained. Those bikes feel like lazy and that's why I like them, but acceleration is no joke if the throttle is fully twisted. I can overtake those trucks in a two lane uphill road with no problem.
awesome model and bike had 1 was my first harley regret selling it excat colour and i rode it hard np what so ever with it sold it at 33000km
What about the cam chain tensioners. Probably has ss gear drive on the cams
Under 4K is a very good deal. This is a bike for its price I would recommend and I am an experienced Harley owner. I own a 2002 softail standard and it is the same thing as the fat boy and can be decked out the same. Even though these are classed as tourers they are actually cruisers.
I have seen a twincam with 247,000 miles. It needed piston rings lol. Also carbureted. Never had a fuel system issue in its life
YAAAAAAAYYYYYY proper simple maintenance.
They definitely kept all their touring bags, and bells n whistles before trading in.
92k is good. I only have 55k on my 2000 Softail Heritage...baby steps. I fully expect to get 200K easy. I have a buddy with 175K on his TC88 motor.....still running great. Cam Tensioners and oil changes...that's about all these bulletproof motors need. Lot simpler than than the 103 in my 2016 Limited....which we like to travel across the country on...but prob won't make it 75K...we will see. The new Milwaukee 8's?....yeah, they are even more complicated! lol. Time will tell...but I'd rather have simpler motors. Evo's could get 300k with simple maintenance.
the 2003 colors is still SO eye catching - love this bike - hope it found a good home.
what slip ons are those i have to have them.
Ya , I put a lot of miles on my soft tail .. and she's got the best body & can't get enough !!
Lol-
Where are your gloves?
92 grand HOLY HELL ! Now that’s love
I hope I can hit 100,000 miles on my '16 FLSTFBS someday.
No bike forged by man can kill me.
How tall are youb
I've learned miles don't matter on a hd because they are very reasonable to overhaul...
Front tire looks really low!!
Fluids and filters and valve adjustments from time to time. And they will last forever...
I saw a hd with 249k on it
My 2003 is fuel injection !! What a difference in a few days of birth differences!!!
I have a 2005 Softail fuel injected, with 12k miles
My 2010 Harley Softail custom has 182,000 Mi on it still going strong never apart and I ride it like I stole it everyday
'03 carborated?
Carb stopped after 2006..2007* efi was standard
its only 7 thou a year..there just harder to sell
Put 240,000 miles on my 1999 softail springer before selling her. Never opened engine.
How many times has the engine had work done to it? (valves, belts, chains etc)
I have 60,000 miles on my 2012....... in 9 years to have same amount of years I'll have 170,000 miles so this guy wasn't riding his Harley very much in my books. And we have 6 months of winter/hibernation up here, so I can only ride 6 months a year.
+HenryHonda I have no idea
Thanks anyways.....keep up the great videos my friend
HenryHonda
You don't have to adjust valves in a harley since they're solid lifters. The only belt in the bike is to the rear wheel and it's carbon fiber infused. I know a guy that finally broke his belt at 300k miles on a really old road glide. As far as chains the only one I know of is the timing chain. Most of the time they get replaced with gear driven components when guys change to larger cams. Not sure if this bike has them, but it's normally the case with high mileage bikes.
And didn't even let it WARM UP!!!???
you were supposed to argue with me, i don't think you understand the internet..
No gloves??????
Seats are cheap, buy a mustang seat they are amazing...
That bike would be worth the price, definitely, perfect carb tuning, runs great, and that mileage is just a freebie trophy, it's not often you see bikes reaching those numbers and still run great, some break down even before reaching 50k miles, if you are an asshole owner, that is. hahahah
If you take care of your bike it will take care of you
@@Srkcycles indeed. Love it
i only buy softails ive got a custom lol
I can't believe it has that much miles.
some can go as high as double or triple that many miles
Got a panhead kicker that starts better than that.
+abe lansky that's impressive
I have a 42 model u that starts easier than my 98 evo after.they have been stood awhile.
I have a 2010 fxstc with almost 200,000 Mi on it and ride it like I stole it everyday
Motorcycles are cheap transportation and fun to ride...
Only an idiot would listen to a radio while riding. Bikes are dangerous, riders who are not paying attention are not going to live long.
Buy a used one and save a fortune
Dennis Morris exactly! That’s what I’m doing next month 👍
i leave harleys in the dust all the time with a vt1100..
sweet
Want a trophy?
Yeah when you get where you're going the outcome is the same you just missed the stuff along the way
Nope...Maybe they just dont want to ride with you..lol
I bet that Harley has more torque than that little 1100.
Put your gloves on, friend.
all that 55 HP at the rear wheel👎👎👎👎👎👎
