S&S Shovelhead Springer Front End conversion | Lnspltblvd

- Even before owning my shovelhead, I knew a springer front end would be on my list of things to do.
Instead of jumping straight into a springer front end, I decided to test out other setups first. The original wide glide - narrow glide - and now the springer.
The wide glide was too stockish and heavy so it didn't last long before I switched over to the narrow glide. The narrow glide setup was a fun stage. I enjoyed the skinny, light, and go fast look it had but it was really the springer that I truly look forward to.
So I decided to part out my narrow glide setup and treat myself to a brand spanking new 18" springer front end from Throttle Addiction.

Let's see how long this stage last...Stay tuned for more updates!

I'm seriouslly considering on fabricating a springer on my own, i want to try my skills on that, really love the vibe that they give to the bike. Your vids are a huge inspiration for me
Those handlebars reminds me of a friend who built his bike through winter, with the highest/widest apehanger just to realize that the door was to narrow! He didn't hit the doorframe with his knuckles, fast reaction! But his handlebars went bent like that! And then the bike tilted and fell on the left side, still idling, and the open 3" belt made the bike moving towards those other bikes standing there, ready for a new season! Yep, three of them fell too. That experience cost him alot of beers!
HA - been there done that sort of 'stupidity' - as one never thinks at the time that stupid things will result from stupid actions - HA. CHEERS from AUSTRALIA.
That is bad ass old school cool love that stuff and those tires make it all come together keep riding.
Well that fitted perfect immediatly
Dude you are a inspiration I have a 76 FLH that is pretty stock going to leave it like that and a 75 FXE Hienz 57 that I put a duel disc wide glide with the tube skirts only deleted the nacelles going with a mid 30s car lamp that is huge up front no fender using the front fender for a chopped back fender real 69 sporty king tank and a real old seat pan from a peddling ax grinder hope you agree with me calling her my lane splitter I love the way you guys sneak between the cars to get up front thumbs up 👍 2 lansplitbulvard no tuff club crap just ol boys having Phucking phun
Im the same ..love the springer.. I put one on my 91sportster +2with a 3 1/2 deg offset cup for some more take.. puts me out to about32deg and keeps right..
ive never had a springer but i always thought they looked super cool, im gonna put one on my shovel project, but ive always been curious what they do. do they change how the bike handles or how the bike rides at all?
You guys are on a roll with uploading these video almost every other day haha
Pinal Patel haha leaving for Japan and Vietnam for 3 weeks so I want to publish as much as I can before my trip
@@LNSPLTBLVD Nice! Do you think you can make a video on how to hide all of the wiring and battery on the shadow?
Love a springer front end.
Springer front end is killer what a look want to put one on my nightster
Great inspiration from Japan! great looking bike
Looks so much cleaner with those bars anyway bro better than the low bars plus they looked uncomfortable
Good choice mate.well done
Hey my guy what size of wheel are you running with that springer? I've been working on a conversion to try and save the discs but it looks like it will be too much work. Any thoughts?
Nice!
One day. Springer and a 21".
Nice video. That is definitely one sweet ride! Was a little disappointed that i didn't get to hear it run. Would have been music to my ears.
Check out the recent video! I made sure to include a few running clips for you :)
@@LNSPLTBLVD Appreciate it. Will keep an eye out for it. Hopefully I'll come across it.
Do you think a 18” length front end springer like tour’s can be installed on a 98 fat boy ? Your bike is wonderful man 😎🤙🏻
Sweet ride!
Great look. !8" or 20" springers. Thanks
What s&s engine is this? And what exact shovelhead model?
How is the braking with only the rear brake?
What length did you go with
18
Love the bike. What size tires you got on there
I'm old school as well love that box you have man my question to you is do you have any problem with your tire bouncing up and down on a road trip when you put the Springer front end on just curious I seen a video of someone else that converted and they said they had a bad problem with the front tire bobbing up and down I'm just wondering thanks brother love your bike
I always wanted to get rid of my springer setup.
I wonder would a 21" look good on the 18" springer or how would that work? I'm building a shovelhead FLH and want to go with a bagger look. I'm debating raked forks or a springer. Anyone with suggestions? I don't want to order anything im gona regret. Honestly though this set up is great!
Better than a biscuit. Good job fella 🤙
I'd like to do this to my 75 flh can you tell me if you went with stock length or went shorter or longer?
Nice work, have a 79. Would love to put that front end and same size tires on mine. What size are they both?
What wheels are those? I’ve scoured the Internet and can’t find them.
Japanes Style!! Great Job
Dude! Phenomenally looking bike! Done in great taste. especially loooove the bars!!! would You mind sharing where did You get them from? I'd love to get them for my Shovel:)
Cheers,
Paul
Your videos are really making me want to Bob my finances vlx600. Only problem is she hates bobbers
It's easier to apologize than to ask for permission :)
nice bike, i have a fatboy i did that to, it, too, looks awesome. what kind of open primary is that?
I love the look of a springer and two fat fucking tires
Nice rock wagon.
What’s the wheels and tires specs front and rear?
Did your top triple tree clamp seem like it didn't want to go all the way down with the neck cup conversion?
What size fat tire are thay, perfict job love it.
Hello, what is the original model of this shovel?
Where do i Get that springer and handlebars😎
Nice pan shovelhead
Very nice bike man ! Hope you dont mind me asking what size and kind of tire are you using back and front ? Thanks man hope you find time to reply
Love the code, been watching for years. Anyhow, what tire and wheel set up on the front? I’m running a 21” x3 1/2 and it just looks funny. I dig the fat front tire. Thanks brother
Yes I’m desperate to know that too!
man, that bike is a belter :)
Look totally killer! 👍
Superb!
What springer did you buy looks amazing want to buy one for my 70 ironhead and don't know what one to buy as there's so many companies that make them
It looks like a Zero Engineering springer from Japan. I believe there is only one importer(in Vegas, Shinto Customs) at least that's all I could find when I ordered mine. Very high quality, real bearings in the lower rockers with grease points but they are in the $1600-1800 range just for the springer (no top clamp, bearings, axle etc.)
@@elitenner5194 thank you so much I appreciate the info my brother and ride safe 🙏
How’s this springer holding up? Really debating between this one or the cannonball one.
Where do you find springer handlebars like that
That's a nice bike!!!
I ride with a springer, it awesome
Man that’s awesome :)
Looks good. Ive been thinking about doing one on my '79 FXS.(Lowrider stock narrow glide) I'd like to keep the dual discs though.
Nice job, i like that oil tank. I was thinking of doing similar but decided to leave mine as it is.
I'm jealous....not so much big tyres but still want your ride........
Hi! what kind of springer fork is on the bike ?
What year is this shovel?
Nice one
Nice! What size are the rigid struts?
Just grab some old scrap. It'll work. Unless you're hauling, one them biggins'.
Try half-way ''Z'' bar's...I did on mine.............
What stand are you using to lift the bike?
Very nice
What's the length of your front end
? I have been looking for one like it. Who makes it or sells it. Have DNA springer on mine way to long
Thats an 18” -4 under. Looks like mine even came in the same packaging so im going to say hardbody antique/vintage replica springer
@@kevinfrmkdz thank you . I will have to find an 18 . and that company .
MARK CHRISTIAN hardbody/mid usa same thing
MARK CHRISTIAN now that I look at it I think hardbody is just their line of Springers or something, dont know but this is the one I got haha Check it out either way op I found them for you but that one is a 20” in the link https : // www .mid-usa. com/35239-hardbody-antique-style-springers-for-custom-applications
Edit: my bad thats a 26” haha +4. Had the link saved in my bookmarks because thats the one I got a year or so back
@@kevinfrmkdz I have owned my almost bone stock 1969 bagger for 22 years now. Its time for rebuild. I have always liked the springers. Just picked up my wife a 1978 cb 750 chop . hope to have both bikes done by july
Hey bud, what size are the springers -4" under stock?
18"
LNSPLTBLVD cheers buddy
@@LNSPLTBLVD what brand are the Springer? I want to put some on my 98 fxstc. Thanks
Sweet !!
plzzzzz put flat track handlebars
What size rims ? Wow very nice
DirtbikeDude 150 thank you both are 16
Looks great ,,, foot pegs not so much
Fuck yeah
Harley make a big mistake discontinuing the short springer . The short springer has Harley style, art and history and for Harley to throw it away is plain dumb.
If I could put a short springer on my road king I would , that would be sweet !

WHERE IS THE CLUTCH ?
No riding footage? 3 stars
did that front end come with a giant pair of clown shoes
Ficking awesome
What is this engine ?
Shovel
Маднявые придумки.
Way way batter
bruhhhhhh
another beautiful bike was ruined forever. The reason is ignorance and inability. stumps of exhaust pipes instead of a normal system. mud-proof rear fender. lack of suspension. And all for the sake of self-esteem and inflated self-esteem
Cool bike- horrible background music
My God. This must be yuppieville because of the bad Yacht music. Where have the bikers gone?
Ugly bike
