A search for warmer roads 2
A Search For Warmer Roads 2 . What started as out as 5 friends headed south for some much needed riding, parting and all around good times turned into a full on bad boy rendezvous. A few friends decided to jump on last minute and we made the best of it. Trailering out of our 30 degree mountain valley into warm southern Utah and riding into Vegas. Minimal breakdown, and maximum hood times. #ridinghoods #greasyboys

I've looked all over the internet trying to find a kickstart conversion and haven't seen anything. I'm still running the stock engine and transmission that came in the bike when it was new.

    Very good video and very good informations. But I have to disagree regarding welding, you can weld on the bike frame without disconnecting the battery cable, you won't burn anything. I've done it many times.

    Great tips, thank you! Curious.. any reasons you'd recommend a Big Twin Evo over the Sportster Evo? I hear the Big Twin has more options, one example being that the transmission isn't attached. Things like that. What would you recommend? I do like the bigger displacement, but I'm curious.

    Sounds like you have a very limited knowledge on how electronic ignition actually operates. Stock mid 80s & up HD units are cheap and last for 10s of thousands of miles with no moving parts or adjustments. A circuit breaker type ignition requires constant maintenance and has a much higher failure rate.

    I had two Dynatek ignitons and two Ultima ignitions die on me. The Ultima ignitions got wet and just die. Once when I washed my bike and another time when I rode through a deep puddle (road flooded). I'm over electronic ignitions. I'm running points and it has been totally fine. I could have saved myself $1000 running points in my bikes over the years.
