I don't understand why these filters are made of glass , what's wrong with clear plastic tubing . No mater where you install these glass filters if they break and the fuel lands anywhere hot like exhaust pipes especially they are a hasard . A fuel pressure gage will tell you if you have fuel flow o...

The dipstick for a bike should be adjusted so when the pan has 5 qts. In it , It shows full on the dipstick while the bike is leaning on the kickstand . Of couse it would show low when the bike is stood straight up .

Could be front wheel balance or neck bearing loose or worn .

WiringDiag1_zpscb87711d.JPG Wiring3_zpsb466289b.JPG Here's a couple of basic Harley wiring diagrams I've had for years . The first I got from Easy Rider Mag Years ago and it has helped me wire several Harleys I've built over the years . The second is another basic diagram that really isn't much dif...

I don't have a TruK lite Tim but that's good advise for those that do . Thanks

I know when I bought Mt bike new in 2000 along with the manual was a plastic bag with about 5 or 6 red (condums) and 5 or 6 green (conduwms) I guess to change the color of the gage panel bulbs . However I never used them .

I've had a shield on my radiator for 17 years . No problem with over heating .

About 10 years ago or so I sent all my gages to Autometer and had them replace the domes lens with flat glass lens and have never had a cracked lens since or fogging .

I just heard this from the girl at the front desk , apparently didn't get the story straight .

The bike was found in the back of a pick up in Georgia. Apparently the truck ran a red l ight and was pulled over by the cops and it was discovered that the bike was stolen . I also heard that it was returned to the rightful owner .

I think it is Barnett that sells what they call a custom throttle cable that doesn't have the bend . It comes straight out of the throttle housing , has a straight adjuster and is straight all the way to the carb . Only problem is I've only seen it in black but my cables are all black so that will b...

Back in the day I flat tracked , TT Scrambled , sportsman hill climbed and rode Enduro's all with BSA's . I started out with a BSA Goldstar 500 cc theN a 1967 BSA 650Hornet Scrambler and enduroed with a 441 BSA Victor . Most of my racing days were early 60,s - early 70's . Triumph were my biggest co...

I went from 300 lb. Springs to 400 lb. Springs , 8 threads showing and the dampeners set at 5 when Cheryl rides with me and set at 1 when I ride alone . Seems best for mine ?

Will this adapt to any Harley ?

Here is a video of the front brake lock made for my bike.

Spal Replacement Fan Shroud Gaskets IX-30130074 Gerry , I installed the fan surround on my 14 " fan . Had to cut 4 sections out of the 16" surround to make it fit my the 14" fan but it came out perfect and fits like a glove . I can see where this should be a great improvement in the ...

I was told it was to improve warmer coolant flow from the rear of the engine and heads. I didn't care for the extra bulk of lines cluttering up that area of the engine. But, before I removed them I consulted with numerous engine builders and Boss Hoss dealers who said they weren't needed and remove...

I've always ran a 32 so I can't testify to difference however I've heard over the years from some guys that do run a 34 can't do along smokey burn out . My engine is slightly modified and runs runs dam good but I have no problem lighting up the rear tire at about 20 mph for a long smokey any time I ...

I just looked at your dealership Barry , cool !

Why is everybody just guessing?? This is going on for weeks now ! Just call somebody who should know: Monte, Tom, Tim even Ricky and post it. My humble opinion: If a business man has some great news or a product to sell he would shout it out to the community. Everybody (including me) has seen the W...

I guess it depends on how much you want to spend to gain a little seat of the pants performance feel .I'd make sure your bike is tuned perfectly first and then see if a new ignition change performance . If you see a big difference I may do the same to mine .

There seem to be a lot of European Boss Hoss bikes and I'm sure there have been transmission problems . Who repairs their transmissions and where do the get their parts ?
