Hey man QQ: I have a 1983. Is it accurate that I just add oil and to bag and it will also count as primary fluid/ transmission? I’m having a hard time finding an accurate answer on this. I’ve never not added it separately even in the manuals and forums it’s not very clear. Thank you.

You can wrap a rag around the filter and use it as a filter wrench. A screw driver is silly.

Thanks Grease, great video. Just wondering, when checking your Main Jet size you pulled out your spark plugs and said that the colour of the plugs your bike is running too lean, what would be the right colour of the spark plugs when you have the right size Main Jet? Thanks again.

Very helpful bro

Great video, What is different on my 1986 FXST 5 speed was it had a lever on it that the clutch cable crossed over to the left side of the bike. It had a pawl inside the cover that the arm with the cable was attached to that over time would break or bend, but only on the 1985-1986 models.Then it was discontinued by Harley and went to the transmission cover with the ball and ramp set up which is what I converted mine to.I wonder if the jockey shift would have worked on the old factory set up that I still have stored away. I think it still would be a problem if the starter was in the way but would be a good experiment. Your right about the 4th gear on a 4 speed and the 5th gear on a 5 speed being the same because I have owned both. The best thing to do is go up a tooth or two on the sprocket to get better highway speed and lowering the rpm's.

My overflow on my sand s E is dumping fuel What’s the remedy

Am I the only one wondering bout the noise when he steps on the clutch?

Hey! Thanks for the breakdown and providing the equipment used for your videos. I was wondering which software or app you use to quickly edit your GoPro videos? I’m considering getting your setup for my motorcycle rides, but don’t want to spend hours editing 😅

I'm surprised that you never said a word about using the throttle.

Maybe I missed it… or did you not say how much you paid for the 4 speed?

Damn I know that park. Can’t think of the name of it but it’s in NH. I used to go jogging there when I lived in New England for work.

Bro in my area Facebook marketplace is practically giving evo sportsters away

Im gonna do an xs650 Yamaha....

Very good video, can I do this in a 2007 softail? Thanks man

This is helpful. Thank you

I wouldnt know anything bout thatttt 🙄😒 ha ha that was hilarious takes a drink and looks away 😂 we've all been there and whomever says they havent is either lying or it just hasnt been yet. Even my american bulldog is trained to look up and away upon times of mistakes or trouble. Its a dude thing 😂 thanks for sharing your story 🙏 stay "safe" on 2 I just turned 40 and it is bittersweet that half the things we learn that are so important, we dont get em til the rides half over, so its important that we dont take rest of the days forgranted.

What is the perfect Shovelhead ignition setting with a HI-4 electronic ignition? Engine warm 3x kick cold only with electric starter

Do you recommend to always retard you distributor before starting (panhead)? to avoid kick back? And while trying to find the right stroke.. will it kick back? Thank you Also what's your recommendation on the points gap, plugs gap and timing mark for a 1948 Panhead? Book says 22, but 19-20 on the points works good and spark plugs, I've been setting at 30. Thank you,

What if im still running the stock ignition system? same process?

The clutch adjustment bolt? Oh well that's how you adjust the pitch of the horn.

I think they call it a rocker it comes with the cable

Can you send me a diagram how I can put a healing toe shifter like old school on a five speed evolution

Thanks to you I gave up on jockey shifter 😂

Me watching this after I just followed your chopper wiring video on building a new harness from scratch💀

OUTSTANDING a natural teacher "cffc" ; ) if ya know u know...

KILLER VID!!! a natural teacher well done sir ; )

The best kick you can give a Harley is, a kick into touch. You can then go and buy yourself a decent motorcycle.

Nice break down and explanation. Not sure what jets i have in my E. But I have it on 69 shovel bottom, 80 inch, and the top end are STD panheads, port and polished. Bike starts up great. Idles great, It's great running around town. It is good, even at highway speeds. I don't have a speedo on bike, but bike starts to break up at a higher speed where I have to back off the throttle. I'm thinking above 60 mph. Would that be the main jet I should change, and what direction should I go. Bigger or smaller. Thanks if you could help me out

search the flea markets,lots of good parts out there,no need to buy after market ,real choppers are built with real parts,

You didn't mention a 10mm under electrical and we all know what that's for.

Technical--stop going up hill ,no front brake,turn left,put phone in pocket,proced with caution,pay life insurance,kiss wife good bye--good luck!

built a chopper from scratch ,in 1964--i started with a rigid hd straight leg frame,59 flh engine from wreck,scrounged and traded parts,chromed the frame and some parts,new chains,clutch ,peanut tank,15'' bars,on the road with 59 ownership [title] ,licence,all for less than $500.00--🛵🛵🛵

Remember, Evo's have poor or no oil pressure if your idle's too low. Shovels are ok.

I must admit, the idle on my Shovel is quite a bit lower, the oil pressure is still very good at 'potato, potato, potato' rpm. I do need to up jet a little though. I run a bellmouth and I've noticed a bit of lag, but I have had a bit of trouble with the accelerator pump being a bit intermitant, I have since cured that problem, the rubber gaiter was gripping the operating rod and it wasn't dropping back down.

I've used a cut down clutch cable attached to my foot shifter and stock clutch lever on my shovelhead. Seems like I don't have as much foot shifter travel and can not engage the clutch like you did with your hand...so much less tension......why do you think? Appreciate your answer

Your a good one brother. Thanks for all of your videos. It's giving me a great foundation to start thinking about doing this. Thanks dude

People there is one tool you must buy it’s nothing short of life changing I wouldn’t leave home with out one 😊 drum roooooll …. The Nipex adjustable spanner lockable Stilson type things they make adjustable lockable spanner they are fkn awesome but one infact buy you can littterally get rid of your spanner set

Wow thats a tool roll . What about spare pistons as they go somthings even a baering puller . Spare cogs front and back chain fork seals an springs calipers they get stuck brake an clutch leavers they snap clutch cable rev cable brake lines spare tyres patches are not safe so spare front back tyres wheels incase you hit pot hole and bust a wheel .a work bench dont want to be crawling on the floor when your at aide the road . Quite a list .. i bet theres more 😂

So, with an Ultima 5 speed eletric/kick start, I might need to consider a different trans for foot clutch/jocky shift? (Don't want the cable in front of the down tubes) Love the top end gear for highway (80+) Wondering about the Baker 6 into 4 for a foot clutch/jocky shift set up...

@Grease'sGarage What's your opinion on the sprocket-rotor rear brake set up with no front brake? Considering jocky shift/foot clutch/no front brake on my BBC merc rigid...

G is general purpose

and the results are?????

What gauge wire do you use from the points to the coil?

Makin' the jump! Going jocky shift/foot clutch on my BBC Merc rigid. Going to be testing all your pointers SOON!

If you gap with .020 then how does the continuity even work ???? I feel if you gap it off the burgundy slide it seems to open perfectly?? Am I dumb ?

Do you have any recommendations for a 2004 88 twin cam EFI ? I fitted a kit to mine and wow that bloody thing is hard to kick, no success yet !

2:50 my HD coil has 4 input pins. How do I test this? Output, you said needs 10,000 ohms. My meter shows 6 k ohms.

Makes no sense to hardtail a softail bike. Why?

Your wrong on spring tension nuts... they are not there to set pedal.throw but they apply pressure for disc compaction not to set pedal engagement thrown

You are incorrect about clutch adjuster center screw..its used to elimnate all play in pushrod assemblys but not some much as to preload the throw out bearing(premature failure)..dont mislead the public to failure.
