Beginning work on my 1988 Harley FXR [2023 build series]

In this video I begin de-jankifying my 1988 FXRS. This is the first video in a new build series aimed at the average guy (or gal) who doesn't have infinite amounts of money to throw at a 30+ year old bike. This build is based out of Tampa Florida. I hope you enjoy the content.

Love what you do . I have my 88 fxrs ( same color) already for 32 years now ;)

[@sergeyche1893]

I'm also currently in the process of restoring my FXR. I think your videos will be useful to me and many others. Thank you.

[@eff_ex_argg]

I appreciate it dude! Look for episode 2 coming out next week! Feel free to share your struggles here too.

[@Mcassino92]

Nice man, I plan on doing a budget build thread on my newly acquired FXR. Looking forward to watching. 🤘🏼🇺🇸🤘🏼

[@eff_ex_argg]

That's awesome dude. Yeah, a guy could throw a lot of money at these. But there are definitely ways around it.

[@GStandsforGrudge]

good luck sir

[@eff_ex_argg]

Thanks my man. It was a mess but I did get it worked out. I'll have a video about it next week.

[@logantwait6691]

Id like to build an fxr someday

[@eff_ex_argg]

The are literally the best Harley ever. There is just some kind of mojo they have...cant put my finger on it.

[@chrisberg2083]

That's legit mileage beautiful Bike

[@chrisberg2083]

Leave the Exhaust!

[@eff_ex_argg]

Well it very well may be the correct milage. In a future video, the engine will be torn down and we can really see whats going on.
I am going to keep the exhaust around...but I definitely want to try the 2 into 1 for a bit to see how I like it.

[@chrisberg2083]

I'm building a 91 lowrider right now 8000 miles. That stock exhaust sounds really good it cracks sounds like a shovelhead. It flows really well as well. I have the same exhaust on mine

[@chrisberg2083]

Looking forward to more

[@vernegibb621]

Replace the whole wiring system it 35 years old. My 87 gave me hell.

[@eff_ex_argg]

Yeah it's tempting. I really want to do a m-unit some day. It's just expensive.
