Sweet video, I’ve got the exact same bike and I was planning on putting T bars on it but nobody really does that at least to my knowledge so I went with apes instead. Your the first person I’ve seen do it on a standard and I’m kinda wishing I would have
Aden Stegall thanks I appreciate you checking out the page. Glad you enjoyed the vid. Gonna be doing more on some cool rides and some fun riding with forward control bikes!! It is a great bike and good for aggressive riding for sure!! If you decide to switch you’re setup and I can be of help let me know. My insta is e_dingo38. Cheers!!
Mines an 04 Superglide with forward controls and I miss mids when giving it full throttle 0-60 hard to keep your legs ahead, was wondering about midway floor boards maybe..
You know in all honesty I tend to take my steering setup seriously due to being able to pull my body weight up to basically sitting on the gauge cluster on the tank lol. Also with a single rotor brake setup you need to set yourself up for the bike to pull you in a certain direction!! I kind of rely on bars as my control utilizing fwd junk controls lol! Thanks for watching!!
Nice dude! Got an 02 fxstb with about 8G's in performance/engine parts and that's me doing all the work, so i'm pretty much set up for dicking around, progressive suspension in the rear, monotubes in the front, final chain drive, Elite clutch lever, vans odi grips, 9" Forbidden risers with MX Fly bars, stretched bags that I need to replace with stunt style and I need to find some fall protection, bung king whatever but as you know TC softies were never meant for stunting but I've seen them 12 O'clock'd with forward controls, still though not many aftermarket stunting options off the shelf. Mid controls are going on by spring, in fact there are a couple of vendors out there with reasonably priced set ups, well a 1,000 to 1,500 anyway, which if quality pieces and they seem they are, brembo master cylinder etc. Check out booster brad, he has a nice set up for our bike for around 1,200. Little ridiculous but to unload that weight on the lower back with the amount I ride seems like a no brainer to me. If I get them before you convert, if you haven't already I'll let you know what I think. It's nice seeing someone with the exact same bike pretty much, doing things we aren't supposed to be doing.
Right on bro!! Yea it for sure was more of an experiment bike but it’s turned out fun riding fast and loose!! I was pleasantly surprised lol! Really fun into the twisties and handles very responsively without much effort. I’ts a keeper for sure and just gonna keep it dialed for abuse.... needs a chain conversion... I already blew the belt clean off on rear lock up and ship around... as I was unloading the rear tire consign out of a whip around fuckin thing blew clean off... I was laughing my ass off cuz I’ve always swore off of belts until this bike lol!! Either way glad you enjoyed the vid and keep tearing up the streets!! I’ll get some more vids up once this weather warms up a bit lol
@@softailspeedz4314 Haha, nice dude, that's awesome. Changing the belts on these pigs is such a cunt, as I'm sure you know by now. I went with the Zipper's kit and have been real pleased. Our 02's may not be part of the Dyna craze right now but we got the highly sought after timken bottom ends and with the new softy low rider S out, people are starting to stunt those so hopefully it'll open up some new avenues for our softails. Just like you, I absolutely love my Train and just put a 21"x3.5" 60 spoke on but haven't been able to try it due to the single digits weather and snow. Your bike sounds like it's dialed in nicely, looks sharp too, handsome machine. Stay safe man, ride fast and take chances.
@@getoffmygrass6974 thanks bro I appreciate the compliments and look forward to riding with you!! Ready for the warm weather and some crazy days!! These bikes are fun as hell for sure.... at first wasn’t sure about turning it into something it just wasn’t made for but the more I ride this 02’.... it defiantly makes me want to pump the money into it!!
There aren’t many options for the 02’ softail models bro. I had fun messing with this fxst just seeing what I could get away with riding wise. In all honesty the mechanics of the bike were great and easy to work on but just an uncomfortable ride for my style. I traded it in and picked up 2020 Low Rider. If you really want mids check out Exile… it’s expensive but they may be one of the only kits.
@@softailspeedz4314 i tolerated the mids on my LR-ST with plan to put forwards but I’ve grown to love them, especially with some power ups meaning wheelies sometimes happen
@@chrishaigh82 best thing about mids is it’s a more aggressive riding position and much easier to power wheelie through the twistys or if you wanna burn that rear up lol!!
If I’m coming around a corner that’s not too deep I have the bike leaned a little with a little bit of handlebar action. I did do this vid to show without using brakes so keep that in mind. It’s much easier if your grabbing some brake to really cock the handlebars over due to the speed being a little more controlled.
@@softailspeedz4314 yeah I mean dropping the clutching while the bike is straight ... no brakes. Rev , drop the clutch , bike loses traction , keep throttle , tire is spinning / smoking with barley any traction ... this is when I feel like its going to just fall over and wondering if keeping the handle bars straight helps.
Yes handle bars straight usually the bike will kick out to the right a bit when you hit it hard and break em loose then I throw my hip to shift the weight to the left . I have never gotten the front tire off the ground while doing this not likely with forward controls and a raked out front end .
Yea bro… just may want to shift your body weight closer to the tank to get off the rear tire so the suspension doesn’t have any strain when trying to unload that rear tire!!
No… I only made the vid cuz I never really rode a bike with forward controls and was just fuckin around with the awkwardness and rolling burnouts. I set the bike up a little but it ended up not being worth investing in a mid setup. However that 88b engine is an awesome motor!!
There’s no options for this model…. Why I did this vid for fun just messing with the awkward riding of forward controls lol. Still a good bike just not many mid options for it.
I want my 5 minutes back! A video about burnouts with just some joker TALKING about it? Oh yeah some pictures of skid Mark's on the street.............. I'd get more 8nfo from cartoons
Mids for this bike is like zero options unfortunately unless you wanna run an open primary and that set is like 1500.00 through exile I believe. You can probably piece a set together though using other bikes parts. This is a deal breaker for me with this bike not having mid options for the fun having style of riding!! Such a bummer on this cool bike.... I should have researched instead of being a know it all lol
It’s holding out after I blew the first one apart at a DOT stop I was having a little fun at!! Took about a month of abuse for it to pop on a 2nd gear dumper lol
Not seated on softails….. with mid controls yes but seated and fwd controls it makes a little difference but not that much. Unless you can you can hold yourself up the whole time using fwd pegs than of course it runs it better but once you start whipping it you’ll quickly realize you need mid controls lol
Dynaordie that was the idea.... I went against the mold just to see what can be done with the softails.... that being said the bike just caught me with only 8k miles and one owner being as clean and stock as it was so it was an impulse buy for sure. I’ll rock it for a while as a thrasher and see what I can pull off lol!
I know… watching back I couldn’t really figure out where to film and get good footage on my own lol. Hopefully I can get some actual good footage on my fxlr this year. I’m almost done setting it up!!
Straight from the beginning when I saw the beard I knew you knew what the fuck you were talking about
I have a soft tail 2015
Please make more videos!!!! Love this I already have rolling clutch dump burn outs easily
I have a 05 FXSTB With all 4 stages of screaming eagle upgrades and she likes to get loose and lay some wicked whole shots and rolling burnouts.
This 02’ just a straight 88B twin cam… just a fun snappy motor to beat on…. Just gotta utilize the clutch a lot and open that throttle up lol!!
Good Video thanks for sharing 👍
I also have forward controls for the first time in my life. Holy crap it was hard to get use to it! 3,000 miles later I'm use to it I think.
Sweet video, I’ve got the exact same bike and I was planning on putting T bars on it but nobody really does that at least to my knowledge so I went with apes instead. Your the first person I’ve seen do it on a standard and I’m kinda wishing I would have

Nobody does t bars? Everyone i know has t bars
Tee bars are tuff looking in my opinion mate 🤙🏿
Do that on my roadking all the time lol. Its fun till ya gotta put new tires on 🤣🤣🤣
Just found your channel. I ride an '03 Standard. Used to ride a lot of small enduros. This is my first bigger bike. Thanks for the tips.
The 96 is one of the best engines Harley ever built.
Great video man thanks
2015 softail slim. cant find any vids on it doing rolling burnouts... im gonna have to make some this spring.
Most definitely!!🤙

What's your handle bar set up? Nice bike bro. I may buy my uncles 03 softtail standard.
The bar setup is 8” pull back risers by Biltwell along with the mx high bars by Biltwell. 1” setup. The levers are Elite Mototech.
You should do a video just showing that bike off and the setup.
I would for sure but traded that bad boy in for a 2020 Low Rider. Liked the new mono shock suspension and mids for a more aggressive stance riding.
Hi from 🇦🇺
Hey what’s up!! How’s it going??
@@softailspeedz4314 like your vid
@chrishaigh82 thanks for
watching!! it was a fun bike to mess with around with but i like being back on a bike with mids!!
@@softailspeedz4314 i tolerated the mids on my LR-ST with plan to put forwards but I’ve grown to love them, especially with some power ups meaning wheelies sometimes happen
@@chrishaigh82 best thing about mids is it’s a more aggressive riding position and much easier to power wheelie through the twistys or if you wanna burn that rear up lol!!
do you just keep the handlebars straight, im always sketched out about sliding onto its side or fucking popping a wheelie

Can I use this same concept on a M8 bagger?
Yea bro… just may want to shift your body weight closer to the tank to get off the rear tire so the suspension doesn’t have any strain when trying to unload that rear tire!!
Thanks Bro appreciate the video and tip @@softailspeedz4314

Is that a stock tc 88? I got and 02 lowrider that's pretty impressive for stock.

Does carburetors make it harder?
No… I only made the vid cuz I never really rode a bike with forward controls and was just fuckin around with the awkwardness and rolling burnouts. I set the bike up a little but it ended up not being worth investing in a mid setup. However that 88b engine is an awesome motor!!
$2,000 for mid controls?? Am I trippin or is that high? Doing mids swap on my 02 wide glide and isn’t looking to be more than a $500 job….
There’s no options for this model…. Why I did this vid for fun just messing with the awkward riding of forward controls lol. Still a good bike just not many mid options for it.
why doesn't it pop a wheelie?
It’s a softail and that suspension setup is a bit rough to clutch up with the weight of this bike. The front will come up but it takes some doing lol.
Hey buddy what levers are those ?
Elite mototech

What gear were u in when u were drifting?
Helmet is Shoei, gloves are Icon or Roland Sands. In the summer I usually don’t wear all the protective gear which isn’t good lol!
@@softailspeedz4314 I think he meant gear, like 1st or 2nd

What kinda bars and risers are on your bike?
The risers are biltwell pullbacks and the bars are biltwell high mx bars.
so how's that rear belt drive holding out?
It’s holding out after I blew the first one apart at a DOT stop I was having a little fun at!! Took about a month of abuse for it to pop on a 2nd gear dumper lol
I started really comfortable riding on a bagger just play around use common sense safety gear is key get out there and burn some rubbba

Biltwell high mx with 10” pullbacks
