Thx for a great video. Gives more than just the service manual. My lady just bought a Superglide, with a need to have the disc exchanged. I have to start from the beginning with tools and so as we go with the metric system over here in Sweden. Again thanks for vid.
Awesome video, I myself need to get rear tire replaced and have a 2008 Fat Bob , was looking to save some money on the labor since I am a mechanic myself but haven't wrenched on bikes that often . Thanks for posting , might just do this myself and I have the service manual as well .
@@cliffcares6455 already done:). Your tips about marking the tensioning bolts and backing them out 4 turns really made putting the belt back less of a worry. Thanks again.
Gorgeous paint job. Needed this for my new girl. Thanks! *edit after 👀* Shame the guy spectating couldnt help with the camera! Still a great vid and I subbed :)
Thanks. Yea that usually works with most calibers but not this one. Harley doesn't give you any slack on the hose. That's why I swing out the inner pad like I show in the video. Then you just reverse that when installing the caliber.
Thanks brother hey one question about the spacers. I put the groove lines facing out but I was looking at my brother's fat bob and his lines face in from factory. Does it matter? What's the purpose of the lines on the spacer? Thanks again
Dude it is the same bike!!! I just took off that same license plate!!! Had to put my veteran plate on. LOL that's funny, here I am checking out videos looking for one like this and the video I find is my bike!!!
Thank you for the detailed video. You just saved me a few hundred bucks on a tire swap. Much cheaper to just drop the wheels off vs getting the shop to do the whole thing, thanks brother
I got a 2011 dyna with a weird rear wheel issue. The center line of the tire is not even with the center line of fender. Tire center line is to the right of the fender center, all spacers inplace, it's spoked what could cause this issue
Thanks. I've done that before and get people claiming that I'm giving out wrong specs. So I leave it to people to look up their torque specs for their bike. I always suggest getting the service manual for the bike you'll be working on.
Cliff I think I may be the next owner of that bike two owners later of that same bike!!! I live near Fort Worth and have the exact same bike with the same paint etc. Everything is the same on my bike. BTW it is a numbered paint job from Harley.
brake pads suppose to come off like that? when I did the front, pads were on there tight and clipped on. how does battlecruise compare to american elite or scorcher? how do you make sure the alignment? is that what the permanent marker was for?
The rear are different then the fronts. Don't know to much about the Battlecruisers. Scorcher are Harley Davidson OEM tire. American Elite in my option are the second best cruiser tire. Second to the Michelin Commanders.
Dude, first of all nice video. But may i ask why you touched the belt tension screw? Cant you just leave it in place, the way it is and just remove the axle so the wheel slides forward a bit and the belt becomes loose anyway? So you dont take the risk of f***ing it up with the belt afterwards.
I first marked both the top of the adjustment screws. Backed them out 4 turns. Then when re-installing. Turned them in 4 turns. Putting my mark back in the same spot. Check the belt.
In video, when re installing wheel and fitting the brake caliper (rt side), it appears that the lip of the rim at about 1 oclock has a gouge in it caused by installer fitting tire to rim, or is it just dirt/lubricant I'm seeing? Also, is that a 19" on the front? BTW, excellent video for rear wheel removal/install!
That inner brake pad is always a pain in the ass! You can actually remove and reinstall the rear wheel without removing the caliper. I have the same bike n that’s how I’ve always done it. Good luck with whoever is doing this for the 1st time. It’ll be easier every time after that👍🏻
Thanks. I did finally figure that trick out. Don’t remove the caliber. Lift the bike. Then twist the wheel to clear the caliber while lifting the bike.
@@cliffcares6455 for someone who will be doing this for the 1st time, (have a 2011 wide glide), is it possible to get a video on this trick? Awesome video btw! Makes me feel confident on doing this kind of work my self!

Thanks. That was my dad. He was in town visiting.
Thanks for this !
huge help! thanks for the vid. should mention you might have to compress the brakes to get the new pads to fit. Still a primo video

Nice. Happy to help. Ride safe.

Now that's pretty damn sweet hell yeah
some good tips!

Super, merci
Right on.

Great Video, Thanks. Would have liked to seen the torque values and final belt tension on the ground. That said, video appreciated.

Nice.
Thanks for the video. What kind of Jack are you using?
Nathan Wells Cratfsman aluminum motorcycle jack.
nice cliff thanks, but please tell me why do the machine markings on the spacers need to be on the outside?
Not too sure. It's what the Harley service manual tells to do. So, I try to follow the manufactures way.
brake pads suppose to come off like that? when I did the front, pads were on there tight and clipped on. how does battlecruise compare to american elite or scorcher? how do you make sure the alignment? is that what the permanent marker was for?
The rear are different then the fronts. Don't know to much about the Battlecruisers. Scorcher are Harley Davidson OEM tire. American Elite in my option are the second best cruiser tire. Second to the Michelin Commanders.

Thanks, how did you get the alignment though? You just used the screw gun, and the alignment wasnt set?

I believe it’s the glare from my light.
On my fxdb07.i had.too.losing.the.shock.bottoms.than.its.easy
Definatly change out the rear disk for a full floater. Come on HD, we customers deserve better!
Pull the axle first, push the wheel forward, and then you don't have to adjust your belt tension every time.
Yup , just punch it through with a big punch and push forward
