    Absolutely perfect! That’s as clean a 58 as you can get! Every little change you have done 💯 % accurate! Right down to removing stickers and changing seat. Those cream saddlebags match the tank perfect wouldn’t change a thing on ol’ blue! Taught me something: The true meaning of duo-glide!!! You guys if you don’t already know are a wealth of knowledge for us trying to gain knowledge! Learn something new everyday as we all do. The way you have a Theme/History/Music/knowledge & tie everything together videos are 💯 % as well!

    I like the way the Shovelhead looks with the bags. That Panhead is awesome! Even cooler that Elvis had the same one.

    Wassup slick, SPANKY here. This is my favorite video, cause it's all about the panhead. You made some nice changes, but you gotta lose that mud flap. That pan is beautiful. I gotta show you my pan, 58 two tone ,green and tan. I dig your battery trick,pretty cool. Just remember...PANHEADS FOREVER.

      Yeah i personally like when he said “the look of the lines of what your most unfortunate friends will see, as your riding away on the new Duo-Glide” 😂😂😂. For the record since starting my channel almost 2years ago, meg has always been my fiancé, it’s possible i misspoke her “title” a few times and labeled her girlfriend, by the way, I gotta watch what I’m typing right now, because i’m sure Megan’s gonna read this!!! 😂😂😂 thanks Buck. 👍🍺 SLICK

    1958, $1,300 adjusted for inflation is just over $14,300.

    Great video Slick. I like that solo seat way better. I'm back i Jersey now, man that trip was fuckin brutal.
    I replaced my pogo stick springs with cheap aftermarket springs and even the heavy duty ones they sold me sucked and I still bottomed out. I finally bought original Harley NOS springs and its like night and day and you can get rid of that funky valve spring. Your 58 is a thing of beauty man!

    • @SlickHeadCustomCycles
      @SlickHeadCustomCycles  4 місяці тому +1

      Thanks jim!! Yeah good to know about the pogo seat springs. I did however just bought an aftermarket pogo seat post with springs for the Flathead, which you’ll see soon!!! I couldn’t wait around to find original stuff. Can’t be any worse than the beating I was taking from the seat that sat on the frame!!! 👍🍺

    • @Jim-ej6yz

    Nice hotties at the start of the vid. Your 58 duo glide is cool looking 😎. Yeah good move taking off the frilly buddy seat. The newer Corbin Gentry single seat is way better and agree the Blk pedals look much better. The chrome oil cover looks great too. Cool pic of Elvis with his Panhead 58 😎 .
    Yes I do like the saddlebags with the chrome around them on your 67 Shovel Head. It looks like a modern revival. Yes agree to keep it original, but I would have personally repainted / fixed the right pannier already, as your bike looks so good & the right pannier looks so rough & stands out. Ps Maybe just do a quick whizbang pertina paint job on the lid for now.
    The 64 Red & White Duo Glide looks in great condition as well. Great Dave Mann pics in shed.

In my video I showed that I had roughed up the drum roughed up the brake shoes and made sure they make full contact but it's still ain't much breakup front.

      Yeah moe, I just got done watching your video. Are you 100% sure that your cable is not stretched and that’s why you can’t get the adjustment out of it at the adjuster? put a new cable on there. is it possible to unbolt the cable at the cable arm in the drum and Wrapping the cable tighter around the bolt essentially making it shorter instead of buying a new cable?
