You should add some red paint around the shadow/side of the Harley-Davidson tank lettering. I think it would make it pop and go a bit further with the "touch of red" theme you've got going on.
I just added Screamin' Eagle plug wires and OEM plugs to my Fat Boy. I like the idea of using the zip tie to support the longer front wire. My front wire stays up because the horn cover won't let it slide down, but I still like the zip tie idea better. Thank you. My original front wire looped thru the shorter one but for some reason I didn't like it that way.
Was the screaming eagle plugs and wires worth the money? I have a stage 1 Road Glide 2018 and figured just regular HD plugs that came on the bike are okay. Thoughts...
Hey Scotty! Yea I think they are worth it. Not like you will notice any difference in while riding, but I like the idea of having OEM premium parts on my premium motorcycle. And the fat red wires look killer in my opinion.
Only worth it if you want colored wires and you think it’s worth it. The placebo effect is massive, however, so you may ‘notice’ a bump in horsepower and increases in biker nods. It Definitely will attract the opposite sex (unless she has a brain and finds out how much you paid)
HD doesn’t recommend the SE wires on bikes that have the Delphi ignition as they use the spark plugs & wires as sensors to feedback info to ECM. Any change in resistance on wires as in these 10mm SE wires can contribute to ping
I just put a pair on my 2011. Softail taking them right back off. Way less torque. pinging in third fourth fifth and sixth gear.......It's true they don't work well with the delphi efi .... sure look nice😂
Even though they don't add power, they are a better and stronger spark and the wires do a better job of insulating the wire which leads to a better/stronger spark. Just makes it more efficient.
i have a 2013 street bob i just got privately pretty sure all the oem plugs and wires are in there. bike pops and crackles on decel. spark issue. i had it at dealer for full service but they didnt do anything with plugs
@@el-hp1lj Being that you have a full system exhaust and high flow intake, the decel pop is definitely fuel tuning. You could ask your dealer to tune it specifically to remove the decel pop - not sure what that would cost. Or you could buy an FP3 tuner which has built in functionality to deal with that. ua-cam.com/video/4hIPvitUDrs/v-deo.html
Cant understand why everyone cable ties them by the horn bracket you can reuse the original proper clips if you just cut of the old zip tie bit off them and thread a new smaller zip through the original clip
That's interesting, I had not noticed any change in idle or starting, but I was not really paying attention to it either. My bike year came with factory installed automatic compression release, so it has always started up really easy for me. Also helps to keep the battery on a tender if it is going more than a few weeks without running.
@@dafigie I just upgraded my 2016 Wide Glide with screamin eagle wires, plugs are on order. There is a difference in throttle response, I was getting popping noises from the intake sometimes and that's gone, also no more hiccups in the idle so does make a difference
Curious as to why.? I just did this to my 08 superglide that's tuned with a k and n intake and vances and hines short shots and it seems to run real clean. Did you have problems with them?
Not picking on you or your video, but those wires are GARBAGE. Not just my humble opinion, but easily proven with a OHM meter, GARBAGE. I dyno tune and build Dynas for a living, the wires are better than stock, but that's about all, and that's not saying much. Good luck, SARGE.
10 HP that's awesome. I'm gonna put new glow plugs in my powerstroke and get another 100 ft lbs of torque.
Haha

Well H-D has these listed as a fitment for my specific model and year. No issues using these for about 2000 miles so far.
Not true.
HD SE wires are Ion compatible.
I run them on my 14’ street glide with any issues

Go check Doc Harley … great post on this subject…
There’s no problem fitting this stuff … no extra horses but dies run and look a lot sweeter..
Just checking to see if you had any problems with your bike after your upgrade. So many rumors about the 10mm wires. Nice look tho
No problems at all. Bike runs great!

I totally agree. Overall it makes for a more reliable and robust system.
@@dafigie I just did the screamin’ eagle spark plugs and wires. I noticed it starts a little better and accelerations are smoother
100%
Nice video! Thanks. 👍👍
Can i swap just the screaming eagle spark plug wire with the stock spark plug? Or does it work only with the screamin eagle spark plugs?
The wires would still work with standard plugs as well.
I thought the di-electric grease was only supposed to be added around the spark plug wire rubber?
You could be right. Use it to help seal the boot to keep moisture out.
I think you should throw in some vids of the minivan!
You know... it is an R/T. SO... when I get those Mopar performance parts stay tuned. lol
So did the zip ties melt after all?
Haha. Zip ties still doing their job!
Je vais faire la même opération sur mon FLSTSCI Springer de 2005.
Did you have to gap those plugs?
Nope, I did not need to gap them.
You could mention that the gap is .35 Thousanths
Always go by the service manual gap for your bike.

That sounds more like a fuel tuning issue. Does it have non factory intake and or exhaust on it?

I've heard the bike idles a little better and starts easier with this upgrade. Is there any truth to that?

Unsightly cable ties not a good look
Well you can risk melting your cables if you want... I prefer to keep mine secured and off the heads
Annoying, too loud music, not needed.
