@@drewkey6437 I have owned a few bikes that were short production runs, always difficult for unique parts. At least the engine and transmission will be supported for a long time. Ride on!
Really liked your video. Oil can be checked on the stand. The dipsticks that rotate are for that purpose. The solid sticks must be standing straight up. Was there some reason you didn't change the primary fluid?
@TomsTinkeringandAdventures I took a tip from you and used an old oil container. Then, I took the part I cut out and used it as my primary funnel. Worked great!!
@@genejustice2821 I like it. My son recently picked up a HD Fat Bob and needs to do a service on it. Will suggest that, even though I have already sent him a link for the funnel set.
@@TomsTinkeringandAdventures, it worked like a dream!! You can also use the cutout under the oil filter to funnel the oil off so it doesn't make a mess. My cutout was much larger than yours, "afraid I'd miss the hole," and I found two other purposes for your great idea!!
If you are starting a bike after two years, flush and clean the fuel tank. It will save you a ton of problems. Also I would replace all 3 lubricants, engine, tranny, clutch to get rid of old oil and moisture accumulation.
Thanks for getting the old Harley running again. Can’t wait to start riding again. 🏍💨💨💨🚓
Robert Roy just needed a battery!
I own a rocker and love it you just never see them on the road.
They only made it for a few years, right? Nice looking bikes.
Yep either 2 or three some of the parts are a little hard to find but I think that's just how it goes on bikes that are ten plus years old.

@@genejustice2821 thank you. If I remember correctly, we were waiting for a funnel attachment deal for the primary. It’s been so long ago, not sure! 😂

Good advice, we got lucky on this one with the fuel. After we got it running we changed all the fluids.
Awesome - you got it running!
Lasse's Food and Barbecue now I gotta get the owner on the bike.
Robert Roy's real tool box is in the kitchen. That is, from what I know about him so far.......
Yeah, he's not a garage guy so much but we all have our strengths and weaknesses.
First!
Worst!
