    Hey Hip…Big $ime from the Burgh here. (My last name is Simon,so my boys use to call me Sime,and I go about 350lbs,so…hence Big Sime,not big time)But,Just wanted to tell you, I heard you sayin the beginning of this video about being an alcoholic/addict in recovery,and having spent time in the pen. Well I just want you to kno, that I respect the hell out of you for saying that live on the channel. You never know the people that may be able to help. I’m also a recovering alcoholic/addict and Jan. 23,2024 was 8 yrs. clean and sober for me. And I also have quite a few bids through the penitentiary,and once thru the fed joint. I knew we had a lot in common,but it’s really funny how much. I appreciate what you’re doing,and really respect your honesty. Would still like to holler at you sometime if you have a chance,but I’ll quit breaking your stones about it,and I appreciate the shout out at the end of the video. You’re a good dude Hippy,keep up the good work.

    New subscriber here i just like to say you put out great bike videos and i enjoy watching them. I ride a 2002 heratige softail classic. I think that its great you were able to overcome your addiction. I worked in prison for 34 yrs in the Va system and if one person can turn their life around its awsome. Keep up with the great stoties and videos you have my support.

    I had a .029 inter and a 0.70 main. When I went to straight pipes and got tired of fouling plugs. (rear plug mostly) I re jetted to a 0.265 inter and a 0.68 main. No more "fluffy" black plugs. Usually with straight pipes you have to lean it out, they make the bike run richer than restricted (stock) pipes.

    Hippie, I'm not what you would call of Ace mechanic, but from what I could hear coming from the video, it sounded like that. Shovel head was lean popping back through that carburetor I'm not sure if it was just what I was hearing on the video if it was actually doing it, but oh as opinions go. This one's mine.

      or bad ground so only gets full connection through the stator. I have lost regulators and coils due to not having the battery, motor and frame all share a common connection. There for anything grounded to the frame with issues is good indicator of this problem. @hippieschoppercorner

      That tail light shouldn't go from out to bright with an rpm increase.
      Make sure it's not discharging at an idle.

    I think my slow jet is a 34.. maybe a 35 36. If it's a newer super e it has an air bleed that can be swapped too for different transition point to full throttle.

  • @simoncaddick9085
    @simoncaddick9085 4 місяці тому +1

    Your battery needs attention, maybe a maintenance charge will sort it out, but for now it's taking a charge when your motor is running (a good charge too) and it runs (so no dead cell) but it's flat enough to be screwing with your idle. Swap it out for a new one and see how many of your problems disappear.. (You can always keep it for a spare if a long maintenance charge revives it, use it as a shop light, timing, running a radio..
    Also, does that cloth hanging from your pocket smell of brake cleaner? I notice you cough more after using it.

      This here fella shows nothing but good content about nice old chops and building,riding and wrenching on them,and this video had all that an some serious honesty from my man’s soul. You should respect the fact that he turned his life around,and is doing something positive that real bikers can appreciate. If that bothers you,maybe you ought to think about the positive message of recovery and turning his life around,that this man is putting out,and show him the respect he deserves for trying,and keep your opinion (everyone has one) to yourself.
