oh man the link doesnt work! where can i find the proper ones.. i got the ones that are both hollow a few days ago

bernie? i think he would see what you're doing and say its not environmentally friendly

after trailering to buy the bike and negotiating a good deal, would you have backed out if you had caught the 1988 error? i drove about 125 miles with a trailer one time to buy a bike and thought it looked rougher than the ad portrayed...so, i backed out of the deal and drove home with an empty trailer. i just bought a 2006 1200 myself and have had a smidge of buyer's remorse. the bike is almost too nice for how i want to ride it.

Your risers are installed backwards lol

Bro did you had to change any cables?

I know this video is a year old mate but I wanted you to know that I really enjoyed watching it...greetings from Australia, keep making your vids, very inspiring

Do you need to strip the whole bike down like that in order to take out the engine?

Thank you!

Next time compress forks with a ratchet strap

Didn't have to change any cables of Brake line ????No mention of it???

What size bit is the back of the speedometer housing?

Nice job with those mounts!

Have you noticed any corrosion with them being aluminum and forks being steal?

Looking very good I've had to watch videos on everything I'm doing to my bike lots of them 😊

Exactly what I needed to know,thanks ✌️

Did you install this without replacing the fork oil lock? It seems like you have to separate the forks to get it out

Cannot learn from this...video is too fast😡

nice job! Did this require resistors to not blink too fast?

Hey do those big radius sit lower than stock? I’m worried I might scrape them. I also have an iron 883

Befor and after pics would have been nice

how did you jack up your rear fender to create clearance to stick your hands under your fender and on top of your tire?

Good job thats how we all learned.

Well I just started following you, hoping you went with the Evo🤟🤘💯

Hey Jose nice work and great info. You're saving others a lot of trial and error. I have a question for you, how'd you know which wire was for the running lights, blinker, and ground for both the new and existing?

What change did this make to your take & trail measurements?

Did your rear signals still flash after installing these? I have the exact same front LED ones that i just installed. They work perfectly fine. But for some reason now the back ones just turn on and stay solid when I put the signal on. They don't flash anymore. Idk why?

Definitely can use some help with my sportster. I cut the wiring

So those are 6 inch or 4inch?

every day Jose lol

bravo un abonné de plus de la France ✌✌

All of the preload on those springs seemed a bit weird to me with my Harleys - my old Brit bikes never had that situation, maybe a little bit but nowhere near as much as the Harleys. When sitting on my bikes ( I have a 2006 XL1200R and 2010 Dyna Streetbob both with heavily moded engines making great power) with stock fork setup, I found I could use up most of the travel simply by pushing and pulling on the 'bars while holding the front brake on.... and the 'damping' seemed useless. Thinking about it, I realised that the springs were too soft and too long - the softness gave a smooth ride but the preload needed on the springs stopped them absorbing the bumps - they tended to act like a child's pogo stick. I got some springs made up that were 50% stronger, wound simply (not dual rate or progressive), fitted emulators set fairly soft and spacers that - in conjunction with the depth of the topnut - gave virtually no preload, that is taken care of by the 'sag' with the weight of the bike and rider. I also used (two and a half Inch) extended damper tubes on the Sporty which increases the ride height but offers more travel so it's a better ride especially with decent rear (and slightley longer) units from Hagon... the bike habdles really well now and is so comfortable. The Dyna got two inch extended damper tubes, emulators, 50% stronger springs and again virtually no preload except that provided by the bike's "sag"..... ride height was a bit low and the extended travel accounts for more of the tubes than I care for so I'm using two inch over tubes. I also use Wideglide yokes (triple trees to you Americans !) which are raked two degrees and along with rear units by Hagon, the bike is so smooth and the raised ride height allows for increased lean angles as I was always grinding footpegs and breaking the clamps that hold the heatsheilds to the front silencer ! I do have adjustable topnuts to allow me to set the preload very precisely without dismantling the forks - something I cannot do with the emulators, I had to try several settings before arriving at what is right for me and now no longer have the uncomfortable 'bounce' experienced with the standard unadjustable damper rods when encountering unexpected potholes etc on the road. These things I mention seem to be standard on most modern bikes and I find it dificult to understand why Harley are so 'stuck-in-the-past' with the suspension systems they use - even later bikes with the supposed cartridge suspension are no better as once again, Harley 'did it on the cheap' !

Man can you help me with one problem. On my 2016 sportster iron 883, I have a slight oil leak from the screw located a little to the left of the main oil drain. That's a pretty big screw. The screw has a thread on it. How can I solve this problem so that there is no more oil dripping?

Why not just get extended tubes?

Next time cut it with a cutoff wheel in a grinder,it's easier to control...I just found your channel,looking like a fun build.subscribed.

That was just the info I needed Thanks

Where you at Jose!! You're getting closer bubba.

It makes for a good story

👍🏻 haven’t seen the other videos yet and i’m a year behind but hope it went well.

You made a good deal and especially for your plans to chop it up..I have an 06 sporty 1200 xlc ive had it for 8 years ,I love it . But ive been getting that chopper ich myself.good luck with the bike im sure she will make you happy.

What did u use for a welder

Why was it milky

Great videos

Can it be installed on a Honda Rebel 500?

Nice got it I was a little confused on how to remove the other cap thank you

For the left fork how do I remove the cap mine seems to be stuck to the spring

Great instructional video ! Good job!

What tires are those? Love the small white wall.

Good video.. most make it look easy then I get 1/2 into it and im screwed hahaha. I putting these on my Breakout as we speak, diff SS steal Brand but 2”.. thanks for letting us know what were in for. Ride safe🤘🏻

Sounds sick bro!! I’ll eventually get those, I’m rollin w/ 3” SharkRoad slipons on my 2022 Iron 883… #keepitrollin

Cant wait to see the bike come along. Your other vids especially the fork extensions really helped me out! 🙏
