OK

It looks like it was most likely loose rockers on the lower part of the front end. When I took the front end apart they basically just flopped around. At the same time I replaces the races and the neck bearings.

I still think it could use some cleaning..lol

@daygersden you have a lot more patience than I do I might power wash mine when I'm done when it gets warmer just the motoring track. I also to sandblasy up the motor I'll give it well

For some reason I could not get those dampers to seat, looks like they were probably original and should be replaced anyways. When I have time I'll spend some time on the old ones.

All but two are from my muscle car days. Mostly for a 93 Callaway corvette supernatural 400 and a 99 Z28 with LS1 motor with 150 shot nitrous.

@daygersden wow it looks like you've had some really cool automobiles. I work for a guy that was a hydraulics engineer here in town. And he would often buy a house and then I would do the work. He was head of the Corvette club here in South bend Indiana for many years. At one time he built a dune buggy which he was into doing dune buggy stuff it had a gasoline motor if I remember it was a kit and you could put in any motor you would get the basic dune buggy kit. But it would drive the motor would drive the gasoline motor would drive hydraulic pumps and that's what propel the tires. But he found out the insurance on selling kits such as this was astronomical. But he was a smart engineer in hydraulics

@MoeLarrycurly1 when I bought this house I couldn't fit both cars and at the time had 5 bikes. Since I didn't want to leave the cars outside I had to sell them. My old house the garage was 3 stories 3 bays. Full basement and 3rd floor workshop. Cars were stored on the second floor. Wish I had that garage at my current house

@daygersden Well I moved here in roseland Indiana. In 1979 I moved out of the big city south of us. I bought that house when I was a junior in high school but about once a year the house would get broken into while my wife and I were at work cuz we work third shift. After three or four times of that. We were tired of it we moved up here to Rosemont you know he has about 607 people in the town. Only paid $19,000 for the house or they're about but it has about a third acre. The house was pretty bad The whole town of Roseland pretty much was efficient village. But the lake to the west of us was drained for the toll road system. And the interchange. In about 27 years ago I tore that house down and built this house. One March day I just started cutting the roof off. The wife got worried so I went and bought a 30x60 tarp and threw it over the top. In the end we cut up a whole house and stuck it in a dumpster and then we started building and going upward and build a two story. Mainly it was friends from the neighborhood the kids that grew up around here. They were mainly in construction that time. And they would bring some friends that would want to come and work nobody ever got paid they were just nice that they did that. My wife and I at the time work first shift and we got home and we started doing second shift on the house. And we'd work till dark or past. Then in '05 I tore down the little teeny my leg garage and actually build a 24x36. And they're already was built probably a 20x20 behind it attached to it and I bought the house in 79. When my son was little in 1984 we built a little addition on the back of that of probably 15 by 15 just to hold all my bits and bobs. As I tended to do a lot of work on the side plumbing heating and air roofs whatever anybody wanted. But I kept a regular job during my working career. Mostly doing maintenance. My favorite they didn't pay much was it the local museum. And several churches and the hospital.

Ya, didn't feel any burs on anything. They look worn so probably just as well I replaced them.

Thanks, but I don't think you really need to do that ( at least not yet) but appreciate the offer. I'll take a fresh look at it tomorrow. Not to mention it's freaking cold out to be loading a bike in a trailer..

Ya it might face down I’ll have to look at a past video when i worked on the headlight and the new hand controls.

I couldn’t find anything on the wiring diagram,but it looks like a quick disconnect terminal. I’ll have to do a little detective work to find out.

@daygersden Well when I get done eating separate I can go out and take a peek on the 1970 I think it was the same thing that's all taken apart I'm working on the transmission and the wiring and other stuff can't go anywhere now 20° and snow

@@MoeLarrycurly1 ok that terminal post is upside down..lol.I just looked at and older video that I made. its like 10 degrees out with 35 mph winds .. with a zero wind chill

@daygersden that's cold

@daygersden I think that white connector or white wire is what sends the power to ..the there ain't too many white wires on the bike there's the white for the headlight. But this one's the white one that's going to the coil.. comes from the center of the stop switch or run switch

I believe the 12 ton I bought with the welded jack base came in one box, the other one I remember came in two

What year sportster? Thanks for watching and subscribing.

@daygersden '83 xlh, stroked to 1350.

Nice I've got a 98 883 taken out to 1200.

Slow and steady.. Lol

their basically both the same frame except fort the top piece..

Ya think they forgot to include those spacers. Funny these fork tubes are about 1/4 inch shorter than the stock ones.

@daygersden quite possibly..

sounds like and idea, I'll have to look into doing that

Ya, I had to do that when I took the outer primary off last summer. The larger muffler clamp wouldn't tighten up.

normally if you had a metal lathe you could just get the adapter to knurl parts.

@daygersden yeah I've never had a metal lathe either I've worked a wooden lathe. I had wood shop in high school but we moved and I couldn't get into the automotive nor could I get into metal shop cuz they were full. So is the wood shop. And they had a class about melting lead steel etc. My father worked at a gray iron foundry so I took that class. I knew about gray iron I knew about melting metal

I would think that would scrape the cylinder walls.

@daygersden yeah I'm one hand you're trying to take up space and the other hand you're making something very rough

I've never used green before

ya thought it was odd that the top one was knurled and the bottom one wasnt

I hope so..lol

I hear ya, when I first picked it up it was great exactly was I was looking for, rechargeable remote speaker. I was willing to eat the cost as I didn't find anything like it. Pretty disappointed in how it turned out.

​@@daygersden it is pretty disappointing to know. Thank you!

I’ve had mine for 4 years and works perfectly

No problem, next couple videos are going to be on the front end. Triple trees and rebuilding the front forks.

@@fearsomename4517 thanks, hope you're having a great day.

@@MoeLarrycurly1 hope you're have a great day!

@daygersden Well I've been trying to get a tire off a rim and after I get the new tire on the rim it wouldn't go on it wouldn't pump up all the way or something I mean it wouldn't fill the rim correctly so I've been wrestling with that. After several hours I gave up. I'm finding another tire to put on that rim. It was like I was putting a 15-in tire and a 16-in rim..

@MoeLarrycurly1 rim damage?

@daygersden no I don't think so there was some paint and rust in there and I've gotten rid of that which I should have done that before I started trying to stick a tire on it. This is the one that I had to loosen all the spokes on one side by 10 turns and tighten the ones on the left hand side seven turns to move the hub over so things lined up meaning chain brake rotor and positioning it in between the fender rails. I found another tire out there in the garage still on a rim. I broke it off the rim I did the bee breaking sometimes that's the hardest part but I made a bee breaker.. So tomorrow I'll try and take that tire off and you reuse that tube because tubes are so expensive today. And take that tiring tube and stick it on the other rim which I already have and working well with that bike. I'll keep trying

@MoeLarrycurly1 could be it's the wrong width..

Merry Christmas and happy New Year.

Merry Christmas to you and your family 😊

Thanks, he's a hell raiser.. Lol

@@jackhughes6844 thanks. Little sparse on one side had some work done to the house and the contractors helper destroyed a couple strings..

A little over 3 acres with a pond out back. All of the dogs we've ever had were rescues. Border collie was from Texas and the black lab was local.

Turned out pretty nice

Perewitz Cycle Fabrication, if you've been involved with motorcycles in the last 50 years or watched the discovery channel I'm sure you know who he is.

Ya its a pretty good camera. What's nice if you have a small TV with rca Jack's you can enlarge the picture.

Very funny story….as I just got back from hf with camera…the sales lady asked me if I wanted a 2 year warranty, I said no as I’m probably gonna use only once and then not for a long time! Well after that statement her eyes bugged out and then she clicked the cash register and she printed a receipt with stated **restocking fee if returned** she even verbally told me and highlighted it! I guess people have been doing this to them! Thanks again for your good video!

@@barryobee1544 few tools that HF sells has a restocking fee, one come to mind is torque wrenches. most people need the for a single job then want to return them.. thanks for watching

@daygersden 🤭

Sounds good

Lots of nice bikes there

👍😁

According to the manual, doesn't look like you can get the race out without drilling a hole in the back of the cup. Removal tools won't fit under the race. I ordered two new cups.

@@daygersden i did mine about 3 months ago ' a different ride now i say ' not as hairy around the bends 😎

The triple trees seemed really tight and rough once I took the front end apart. Bearings didn't seem worn so it might just have been torqued wrong. Either way it's all being replaced.

Good price for that. When I bought mine everywhere was sold out, seems the Chinese got into the game selling it

@@daygersden the ad says from V-Twin made in Taiwan

Only ones I saw were around 66 bucks made in China. Didn't really go thru the whole list. Mines is a V-Twin product, if you can get it for 62 bucks scoop it up, never know when down the line you'll need it.
