- Welcome back to the shop and you and I get this 2003 Dyna back on the road after siting for almost 5 years! We will be rebuilding the carbs, giving her a good tune up, and a once over.
You and Kevin Baxter are my absolute favorites to watch on motorcycles. Vicegrip garage for everything else.
Wow. I consider that a huge compliment. Thanks for watching and for your kind words!
One of my pet peeves about Harleys is all the different size safety screws. I had to buy a boat load of all size bits, and American standard wrenches and sockets, Allen's head wrenches. The list goes on and on.
@@bigwu100 yep. My 1950 panhead can be fully disassembled with 3 standard wrenches. Ha.
Last year I bought a 96 roadking sat 12 years in the mountains garage it was green it stank lije mold. I took it to a local shop. Needed tires, forks rebuild, carb, and give it a good look over. I didn't want to spent forever and a day
That’s great. I’ve got two road kings coming up soon on this channel. One is an evo like yours. The other is a twin cam that hasn’t been on the road in 11 years. So stay tuned!
Just done exactly the same process on a 2003 anniversary sporty here in the UK. Only 7200 miles but had been sitting for 4 years. Needed master cylinder rebuild, fork seals, carb overhaul plus a full oil and filter service. The fuel tank was pristine inside but the tyres were rotted out. Put on new rims and stainless spokes as the originals were a bit manky. Now looking and riding good.
Wow. That’s was a big task. Good job. We are going to Red Kote the tank, so stay tuned!
The shortened diaphragm spring that came out of the carburetor is part of the re-jetting done when the carburetor was modified to accommodate the aftermarket exhaust pipes and air cleaner. I believe it allows the slide and needle to open a little earlier. Back in the day, we cut a couple loops off of that spring to shorten it.
Good to know. But this bike was stock if I remember correctly. Thanks for the info.
I'm looking forward to watching this - thanks for posting!
Thank you!
I have the same sporster custom of that bike and am very thankful i was able to buy it, i have done a lot of upgrades and only a few more things to upgrade , for an 883 it really runs strong 💪 very thankful to have found you, i really like your work and the great information you share on working on Harley Davidson motorcycles ⚡⚡⚡🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🏁🏁🏁keep up the great work and thank you again for taking the time to help us out with working on our own bikes 👍👍👍🤝🤝🤝💯💯💯
Thank you for your comment and for your support!
Great videos! Look forward to learning how to Red Kote tank on my '89
Thank you so much for watching and for your support. The Red Kote video will be hitting our CZcams channel tomorrow at 7pm central time!
I've done brake pads. Need to take them back out and file an angle on the pads. I'm getting some squeaking
Hope that fixes it.
😎👍😎
Thank you!
E85 is a no no it does funny things to Carbs and injetshion systems !
I agree. Never heard of anyone running that in a bike. Ethanol free or premium at the minimum for me.
I just bought one of these for my first Harley last week. Thanks for this video. Why do i see difference rear fenders on other supposedly same bikes? Mine looks like yours
Congrats on your purchase! Most sock fenders are the same and there are tons of aftermarket ones and some people chop the rear fenders.
Great video. How did you reinstall the throttle cable bracket and cables when reinstalling the carburetor?
Can’t remember on this video but I usually take the bracket off holding the cables to the carb. It’s much easier that way and you can leave your cables in the bracket. And thank you for your kind words.
@@butlercustoms thanks. I’m going to follow your advice when rebuilding the carb on my Dyna. Appreciate the video.
Thanks for watching and commenting!

Thank you for your comment and for watching!

I have occasionally had a problem where id get an overflow when i put my reserve on..correct..that doesnt make sence..anyone else have that happen..what was your fix..??
Float pivot pin..
Oh yea..momma says hi..🤣😉👍
I’ve ran into something close to that before. The issue was not with the carb but with the petcock. Had one that when he turned the reserve on there was still enough fuel that ran through the ON position as well and that caused too much pressure for the float needle to stop the fuel. It was weird. Never had an issue like that before or since.
Same. Only with reserve.
Good video. I like how you don't try an rake the customer over the coals on work. Folks sometimes get ahead of thrmselves wit maintenance and wanna jus replace everything sn don't really have to
Do you have the link for the carb cleaning tools and the red punch you used to press the float bowl pin out?
I def gotta add it to my tool roll
Thank you for your kind comments. Here’s the Amazon link to the carb cleaning tools and the punch. Thanks for watching!

If plugs are fouled then you are getting fuel and not enough spark or spark at the wrong time. So I would suspect a timing or spark issue.

Thanks for watching!
who was a supplier of that crappy rebuild kit?
I’m not sure where he bought it from. I’ll have to ask him.
Has anybody heard anything good or bad about KIPA carb kits
What is kts?
@@butlercustoms Siri auto correct fucked up my message. Sorry about that. I corrected it.
@herrent oh. I’ve never used those kits before.
@@butlercustoms what was the kit you used for this video. I want to stay away from it.
@herrent I can’t recall but I think the customer ordered it and not me. I do t think the box even has a brand name on it.
Eyeballing is not how you set the float height. There is a spec in the manual for that. Also if you would have bought an OEM rebuild kit instead of a generic Keihin kit then all the new parts would have fit. Amateur hour!
The spec in the service manual is useless with aftermarket floats. That’s why I blow in the fuel inlet and eyeball and feel when the fuel actually cuts off. To me seeing and feeling is much more accurate than setting a spec in a book and not checking it. And if I can save the customer some money on a generic rebuild kit, and it works, then that’s fine with me. And as far as being an amateur, aren’t we all?
I like the video, it is very informative. I have put my fxdx 1999 apart and have some understanding of the keihin cv carb being serviced in this video. It is a very good Walk through but I agree, there is a certain procedure for the setup of the float. I would also get an OEM replacement kit , they do not cost a fortune. Eventually the carb has to work, which has been achieved. Very good instruction !
@michaelslawinski6449 those are some great tips. Thanks for watching and commenting.
@@Claude-om9og I called the biggest Harley Davidson shop in Los Angeles today and they don’t have OEM carburetor kits they’re referring me to aftermarket
That is correct.
