That's one of the best demonstrations I have seen on the cam gear alignment. It was especially helpful to get the tip of using the straightedge and line up from the crank to the rear intake bushing. Nice job.
I just did a cam swap in my Sportster and this video was a major help! Thank you!!
Clint Roberts hey does the top end have to come off when you do cams
Hey thanks for another great video.I come from a farm,oilfield background but defenatly not a "motorhead".I've watched your videos and as usual they explain why /how things are done well.
I've got a 13" sportster 1200 and have done stage 1mods myself with homemade "lollipops' in V and H exhaust.Installed longer after market rear shocks for less rake and more sporty ride,tires changed,chrome studded seat,bags,conchos,brake pads,LED light strips at sissy bar.
My boy is getting a bike and the extra time we can spend fiddling on them together is golden.Any biker knows that wrenching in the off season is almost as much fun as the riding season.
Again thanks for the inspiration and sharing the videos.
Darrell Felt Amen. That's the start to mechanic work you want to have.
i missed the rear exhaust by a tooth. Wish they would've mentioned to line up cams to rear intake bushing on the book. Always a pleasure Shane
Thank you so much for this video. Had a small job (replacing o ring on oil pump) turn into my bike ripped apart all over my garage. No idea what I’m doing, way out of my depth. Learning as I go. Thanks again!

New valves and cutting them in. I'm now looking at the case and it's in need of new bushings. Once I get it together I'll let you know. I'm setting the timing this time. It's so easy. I thought the other fella helping me knew all! He said he did!🤣🥴

i recently found out that Ultima makes a "High Volume Oil Pump" that will fit my pre-pin oiler... so the answer, for me, is " increase the big end sling " when camming pre-pin oiler sporties.
no problems 04 and on, the ones with pin oilers can pretty much handle anything you throw at them.
but i would definitely suggest a high volume oil pump when camming 03 and earlier model Sportsters..
Why would anyone give this video a thumbs down?
This could not of been a better instruction.
Thanks for a great video!

Bc he didn't mention anything about piston position
i noticed that your manual showed that the gears also have marks on the back, mine are numbered the same but have a different alpha numeric code, does this matter and is the placement the same "4d , 2d etc. thanks
Hi Shane, (Sugar-Shane) As always, great Vid from a great Instructor. I hope you all the well-deserved success.

@@How2Wrench From the boxer "Sugar Shane" YOU KNOCK THESE VIDEOS! AND YOU ROCK DUDE"
@@LyonhartZ2 LOL...thats awesome...
I'm doing a cam swap on a 2011 1200 sporster very small spacing with the gears very easy to be off by one tooth
Great Job..
What brand service manual are you using?
Tdc at the front or back cylinder
I have a sportster, 2002, 1200, I'm thinking about replacing my Cam Cover. (It's all flaking the chrome)
Does S&S make adjustable push rods for my 1200?
I'm thinking that might be easier than pulling my rocker boxes. My rocker box's are not leaking, I don't want to disturb them.
Harley Dealership Replaced the rocker gaskets Circa 2008. Haven't ridden It a Whole heck of a lot since then. (10,000 miles maybe)
Do you happen to have a video like this, only on a 1200 Sportster, Frame mount motor. I think from research, 1995 to 2003 was the same Cam/gear cover.
While I'm in there, (If I decide to change the Cover) Is there a good "Mild Cam" Set I can install That will give me some Low to mid performance. I have Vance and Hines Pipes, (Like long shots I think) and screaming Eagle Air filter.
If I put a set of mild cams "Geared" for low to mid range, would I likely need to re jet?
I'd want cams that will "Go right in" (Don't want to have to modify the case, like I saw on another video)
thank you so much man

This video was super helpful in rebuilding my dads 1200 sporty, but it seems I may have cause another problem. Engine sounds like it’s misfiring, do the pistons need to be in a specific orientation when setting up the cams? Any help is much appreciated!

Newbie question. My 1990 sportster 883 tipped. The lift was all the way down. When I had it in the wheel chock I went for my tie down straps and the wheel chock gave out some how. The bike fell over🤦🏾♂️. I quickly picked it up. Is it possible for the timing pickup module to have been moved with the impact?
My first thought is highly unlikely on "moving" but electronics do weird things and don't like impacts. 👍 Thank you for taking the time to comment! Hit that subscribe button if you haven’t please! It helps us!

What position should the pistons be in since I am having piston to valve issues, already jacked up 3 sets of valves
Hi friend. Running down today’s list of comments! I try to answer when I've seen it before, but I don't recognize this one. I’m the Social Media Manager here. That’s a good question for Shane. He gets hundreds of requests a day and starts each day answering MEMBER or donation support questions first and then if there is time he will try to circle back before heading to the shop for customer work.

does the oil pump have to be timed like on the old iron head sportsters?
Not on Sportsters newer than 1984.
Great video, I just pulled my cam cover to replace the gasket but forgot to undo the bolt from the electric timing an it pulled the gears out with it. Is it possible to replace the gears with the push rods in place?

hey, did you get an answer for this? I did the EXACT same thing over the weekend.
Nice job--(as usual--you do a great job with these videos)-- Two questions, Is this a "Iron Head" motor?-- and is this motor found in a 2004 Sportster?--thank you
Why the line drawn through?
Iron heads weren’t in 2004s

Had my 1975 sporty redone. I installed the heads and adjusted the valves. Front not firing. I know that the valves re knew and set in. Rear compression actually does a loud pop when I rotate engine on my finger. Front barely fizzles. I have electronics that fire both cylinders. I hear it snap on plug when it's on TDC. Has to be a cam off isn't it? Everything is new. It's making me wonder if I know what I'm doing. ( jet engine and FMC and GMC MECHANIC) "yep I used to know all"! It has to be the cam. I should of done it all by myself!!!
You're on the right track. If no compression on the front, not point in moving forward until you find it. Wrong cam timing could have bent a valve too....we can help if needed...

What a bout the piston the it has to be on top dead center ?
That's a good question for Shane directly. You reached the social media team here. We get 300-400 requests a week, so it’s a bit time challenging as you can imagine.
Shane does try to answer some non-members' questions when he gets some time so hang tight if you’re not in a hurry.

What about shimming endplay?
Yes, how are they shimed?
How do you get the cam cover back on? I was able to time the cams when I did my bike buy I could not get the cover back on to save my life, i could not get the cams to slide into the bushings in the cover, ended up ruining the bushings and had to take the motor to a shop to finish it up. Any tips?
+Bill Hill
I'm betting you still had the pushrods in downloading the cams. Yes/no? If so you cannot get the cover back on if the cams are under tension.
I had the pushrods in but I didnt have the top end back together so I dont think there was any tension on the cams.
Good video but it looks like your one tooth off on the number one cam
what about TDC I've the procedure about 40 times in a Haynes and clymers manual and put it together and spin it and the rear exhaust valve hits the piston ?
Orale
Horrible Backgroundnoise...
I can't get the cam back in due to the rollers on the end of the push rod, what do I do?
Thank you for the comment. See the link below for more help with your question. I have been banging my head against the wall thinking of ways for people to say thank you in an impactful way to help keep these videos coming. Here are few ways that many have found as a way to give back.

If you didn't cut your old pushrods out with a pair of bolt cutters to replace with an adjustable set your going to have to remove your gas tank so you can remove your rocker box covers and remove the rocker arms to remove the rocker arms you have to remove the 2 bolts for each and push the rocker shift pin and that will let you push the lifter back up so you can install the cams . If you have the money and don't want to do all of that I would just cut out your stock pushrods and get an adjustable pushrod kit
