Thank you
It probably helps and I don’t have an issue with my wife’s 24 M8, some issue on my 23 M8 bug I think it’s that clutch cable auto adjuster. My 08 TC was fixed by ditching the comp sprocket for a hybrid comp, an adjustable shift linkage that allowed me to get rid of the slop and a correct clutch adjustment.
Yeah you shouldn’t have an issue on the 24’s they changed the shift drum design. Even with an old school jam nut style adjuster you can still have some issues. Those auto adjusters are and were a TERRIBLE idea lol
Im 65 and been on Harleys a long time. Hot rodded several of them and learned this: If you want a race bike ,save yourself a bunch of time, money and aggravation, go buy a race bike, Japan makes a shit load of them. If you keep your Harley stock and dont hang a bunch of high-priced junk on it, It will serve you for a Long time.
It’s funny you say that, I had the pleasure of knowing this ole timer named David willet….David, had a 1987 tour glide names “old Charlie” he put 419,655mi on Harley caught wind of this and in 1999 have David a brand new ultra classic he then named this one “old Charlie II” he proceeded to put 296,855 on this bike. David was an awesome dude and would come to the dealership just to sit and talk with people. After working on his bike one day I said David….what’s the secret? He said I keep my bikes bone stock and don’t abuse them. I clean every aspect of my bike to make sure no dirt causes problems. He also had a 2005 Honda Bergman that had 105,000 ole David LOVED TO RIDE 🙌🤘
@ Absolutely, but I guess we were all young once and have to go through all that to get the wisdom of an old guy. Lol
lol !
I finally found yalls channel. I was the recovery guy with Gladiator, talked to you guys a little bit before and after. Love the videos, the prep, trail commentary, and although bikes aren't my jam, I enjoy watching gearhead stuff none the less. Glad you guys had a good time in Booneville. I would have liked to seen how the Pan American woulda done down on the KAT 2 sections and the creek, but I also think you would have to be a little nuts to run those sections on 2 wheels. Those rallies are designed to test a lot of your skills and navigating is definitely one of them. Picking lines, knowing the vehicle. How to not destroy your vehicle in the process. all the maintenece prep. Then there is the fight to stay at it for 24 hours or so. Kudos to you for putting on a hallova showing. That one out of Booneville was way rowdier than the previous events for 24 hours of Appalachia. Anywho, love the content, don't weaken, and hope to see you guys in March down at the Mothman statue. TTTYFP!
AWESOME !! Yeah it was good talkin with you. Jake has entered into the March event and my hope is to be able to make it as well ! After I released this video I created another YT channel strictly for off road content. Life has been busy and haven’t had an opportunity to post content for that channel but it is in sight for 2025. The new channel is called @AppalachiaOverland I put a video up about me going to help in WNC….anyway I hope you had an awesome Christmas and I hope 2025 is killer for you as well. Hope to see you in March 🤘
2023 models will be 2 years old with no significant incentives to move them. Especially the RKS.
Dealers are gonna be stuck with so many new 23’s and 24’s they won’t know what to do with them
After watching your video, I order one. Installed it yesterday on my 2020 Road Glide Limited. Wow, what a difference. It shifts so smooth, and so far, no issues shifting into Neutral after a short or long ride. Thank you!!!
AWESOME !!! Happy to help 🤘
I just bought a 2024 breakout and replaced the stock pipes with Vance and Hines short shots. Do I need to get the bike tuned? Your videos give a lot of info! Thank you
Congrats on the purchase 🤘 honestly I would. If it was just mufflers I’d say no, but full systems breathe differently so I would get a tuner. This will help avoid lean decele pops and maybe some dead spots under load
Boring
Glad you liked it
M8's its all harleys
TC’s are easier than M8’s
Do you think they'll bring the Roadking back? Thanks!
Yeah, I can’t see why they would can the RK. A lot of people love the RK and it was the OG touring bike
I have a 2022 Nightster & I love mine so I am probably biased lol 😆 . It is lightweight, nimble, & in sport mode it is fast. I put the HD switchback seat on mine & it definitely gives it a dyna look. I bought a sissy bar but I still have to install it. I feel that the Nightster does not get the respect that it deserves. I have almost 8k miles on mine & I've done urban, highway & country roads & the bike does well on all of them. It definitely needs more after market parts but I love mine.
Yeah it’s def a very underrated bike for sure !!!! One of the reasons it hasn’t done well is cause Harley did a poor job of releasing it
Yes that is so true!@VtwinRevolution
👍🏻
Harley doesn't give two F**** about old customers or new customers... I hope Harley ends up with everything they deserve... Don't Overthink IT!!!...😏😏
Yeah they’ve def fell out of touch with their customers
@@VtwinRevolution Glad I'm Not the only one that thinks that... 😏😏😏😏😏
I’ve been doing this for a long time now and while I’m critical of Harley I still love the bikes…..but that doesn’t mean I won’t talk shit when it’s needed
Usually my M8 goes into neutral cold or hot, but every once in a while, and I have not figured out under what conditions, I have experienced a problem getting into neutral while the trike was running. I remember being stopped by a flagger at a road construction area and was going to sit for a bit and neutral didn't come so I just shut it down. I didn't want to sit and idle anyway so it wasn't a big deal. But still, I thought something must be wrong. Now from the video I see it is a design problem. I got the EZ Shift.
Awesome ! It will make a difference
I agree with you on getting younger generation hooked 100% liquid cooled motor!!!! Plz bronxz for 10000 low interest rate harley has to do something for young riders killing the dyna worst move ever !!!! Wait n c I guess hopefully keep ultra indian pursuit is pretty solid bike
I’d really like to have a FTR1200
Already have the engine. 1250 rev max give it 160hp put it in a naked bike and done, HD saved. But no, the Sportster S and nightster are cheaper looking than chinese bikes and stupid designs by some art school chick.
Yeah the sportster line SUCKS ! I would imagine a hooligan style pan-am be produced
Wow, HD is giving new run off the mill paint colours 🤡🤯. Surly, this will save the failing company this time, i mean, it hasn't for every other year, but hey, surely this is the year 😂.
🤣
Great video and information!!
Thanks man, glad you liked it 🤘
I like my S&S Grand National mufflers. Good new channel!
The S&S GN mufflers have a nice tone. Thank you ! Hoping year 2 brings good success and value to my subs 🤘
I think the Soft-tail Engines will get the Partial liquid cooling of the Water-cooled Head Tourers.
I feel like they will as well ! And also get the VVT Motor
I bought my 05 RK and my 17 RK, both from H-D dealerships. I do my own work, and used to be an auto tech. Happy to say, any questionable items on either bike, the dealership replaced. I actually got 2 new tires, 3 hole service and a backrest and mount on my 17. Other than regular maintenance - replaced pads f/r, flushed brake and clutch fluids, engine oil every 3k, primary and trans every 5-6k, all synthetic oils, bike runs great. I put some Cobra NH pipes on, to get rid of the Honda-Davidson sound, and a KnN filter with a tune. From here on out I just plan to ride and maintain, and enjoy my retirement. I know about bikes, and recommend anyone not experienced, buy from a reputable dealer. Ask around before you buy. Dealerships are expensive, but you can ride with piece of mind and confidence, knowing a tech that deals with these bikes every day has your back. Good video.
That’s AWESOME ! Well said and this channel is focused on helping those that do their own maintenance glad you liked it 🤘
Any adjustments after install?
Yeah, but it was minor, I had to adjust the linkage so the toe went up a little
What is the tire age limit on used bikes? Great video. At my age I have little use for a fine tooth comb, nice to see you still using one.
🤣🤣🤣no age limit. We took in an ironhead sporty before and evos
Go ahead and send me that comb, one of the teeth broke on mine the other day and I’d hate to miss something
👍
🤘
Good behind the scenes insight on the work that goes into reconditioning trade in motorcycles.
Thanks dude !
Awesome video ! Thanks for sharing 🤘
Thank you !
🤘
👍🏻
Thanks for sharing that insight into used bike inspections. I enjoy our channel. 👍
Thank you !!
Great video. This is something people can do themselves also to check their bike.
Thank you dude ! Yeah this something they could check too 🤘
Thanks well done.
Glad you liked it 🤘
Makes me feel better about buying a used bike!
Happy to help !
What’s the correct primary cover gasket for 2016 road glide special?
Are you wanting the part number ??
@@VtwinRevolution sure
@ yes
34901-07
@ thx
Is your primary noisy with that dark horse?
No more than usual
Their gonna make a bunch of r2d2 lookin ass baggers is exactly what their gonna do and not only have they sold out over seas but their about to move all their production over their again… I love Harley’s don’t ride any other type of street bike but they definitely have been letting their American people down… Harley and the Davidson brothers would b pissed if they knew their family spot on their anerican roots for damn sure
lol R2D2 bikes…🤣🤣 that’s funny You ain’t wrong about any of what you’ve said and that sucks cause this brand used to be the heartbeat of America
WAIT..... my Harley has a neutral gear?? 🤣
🤣🤣🤣
As a technician for the last 15 years. I can say, i adjust hundreds of clutches every year. Every one goes into neutral just fine.
🤘
What dealership do you work at ?
New customer refuse to buy a bare-bone motorcycle with no tech at that premium price. Old customer are very resistance to any change and do not want any tech on their motorcycle. Harley is fucked. 🤷♂️ For next year. My guess is a new variant of the X440 model. An XC 440 scrambler maybe ? Heard they sell quite well in India.
lol dang….when you put it like that it’s hard to argue 🤣🤣 the problem is with models like the X440 Harley just releases it and expects it to be a moonshot. They don’t have very many P&A they offer, so with very little customization options the line flops, happened to the XG line and is now happening to the sporty line, when there isn’t any support from the dealer nobody else gets excited and starts customizing them which then gives birth to aftermarket parts. I am loyal to Harley but yes they are SCREWED if they don’t change something !
The only thing that will bring me back to the brand would be a quad cam Evo Sportster under 10 grand.
I was talking with someone at work yesterday and we both said they have to get these bikes affordable but also giving people something they want ! Not some over engineered crap version of it
Color that's it. No automatic no power windshield.
The auto windshield would be a nice touch….
Easiest way to find neutral..Turn bike off simple as that,don't need no frickn gadget.
Soooo…..you turn your bike off at stop lights ?
@VtwinRevolution of course not,just hold ya clutch in if finding neutral is such a pain. I was talking about if you are parking up.
I know….i was just giving you a hard time 😉
@@VtwinRevolution👍👍😛
Pleasure meeting y'all! Hope to see ya at the March event, (We were running the Grenadier) 💪
It was awesome talking to you as well !! We’ll see you there 🤘
I liked the house of kolor paints. The limited paint sets were also a nice touch. Bring back denim for sure. Denim purple, maybe. Road glide 3 and the trikes get the new front ends. Maybe a street glide ST. or maybe ST dies altogether. We will know in about 6 weeks, im assuming
How awesome would that be if the trikes got the inverted front end !! And an independent rear suspension !
Sportster s is the reason I don't think we will ever see a Bronx because it was a lil bronx. I think the majority of the new stuff this year will be the trikes being fully redesigned
Well if that’s the case MAN!! They really blew us away with the sportster line haha.
I put the Tab Performance with the louvered baffles. Think I’m gonna find some Zombie baffles and replace the ones I have. Might do the stage 1 first to see how they sound tho before replacing them. Do you think that stage 1 would make a difference with the current baffles? Just subscribed. Nice job!!!
Awesome !! Thank you ! The stage 1 will give the bike a little beater throttle response making it feel a lil snappier. I would recommend the Trask air cleaner it shows good results on the dyno !
I don't know about an M8 engine, but try finding neutral on a right-hand shift 1968 Sportster with a dry clutch at a red light. You have to do it while you're still rolling or when the engine is off. That was until I put a set of ALTO wet or dry clutch plates in it last year. Now it's like butter.
🤣🤣🤣
I own both the tc and m8 and don't see an issue with finding nuetral with any of them. It's the same use heal shifter
Awesome !! 🤘
They have motorcycles there be some new and same. Im a fortune teller
🤣
Great content. Thank you!
Thank you ! Glad you liked it !!
Just subscribed and looking forward to learning.
Awesome !! Thanks for the sub !
I wish they would offer all models in Chrome or Black like on the RG/SG/Heritage. I'd also like to see a bike come back with a Blonde finish.
You know…I miss the blonde motor, if well taken care of they were cool
