Parts can be poor but good ol American ingenuity! Fine craftsman. I'm 37 just bought first Harley a 1968 XLCH. Searched the internet Forums, TH-cam etc... Found Tatro Machine the best informative intuitive . My Christmas present an inside view of World famous Tatro Machine Shop. Tanks a thousand keep filming and spreading the word on a great American Craft. I live in Montana other wise I'd be at Your shop! How can I order a shirt.
Thanks, Im going to have a look at putting my kick stand back on. Yes I had to use a 4x4 block. It never tipped over but ty looked like it was more than ready to timber! Square??? Mine is a 79 Sporty, nothing on "lil Sistah" is square! she lubes the chain well! haha I dont have to change oil in it, burns and leaks it...ADD MORE!! Sherry Lynn
Two days late but Merry Christmas Tatro. Early Happy New Year as well. All I can say is..you da man Tatro. I doubt there's another wrench NEAR as all round brilliant.
Tatro it’s funny but most guys either would’ve just run it or scraped it. Nice re-machining of the part. Sure don’t give you much confidence in new parts.
So, out of curiosity, do you ever send copies of your videos to these manufacturers showing them how bad their quality is? It seems to me that since your videos are public that they might want to consider doing something about their products when they realize that thousands of potential buyers are seeing how bad their products are. After all, if nobody bitches nothing will ever change.
they don't like it when i tell them about their bad parts and how to fix them. some of them even stop selling to me. parts are what they are and they change over the years so you have to keep up on them. tatro
I remember when quality meant something in this country and hopefully it will make a comeback. Really appreciate what you are doing Tatro. Happy New Year.
Looks like a bike builders Nightmare - Great Video

just thinking out-loud, i remember this part was over size to start with. could it be possible that it was meant for a ridged or softail application
no, just made wrong and needed a little tune-up.

Unbelievable that an American company would ship so poorly a finished piece, zero QC after the fact.
welcome to the real world.
