    John and Craig get some exciting packages in the mail containing knucklehead parts.thank you guys again! We both give it a go at starting the panhead John can't seem to start it but Craig can. We showcase a new to us 1970 Harley sportster. we kick start it and then ride it around the parking lot. John and Craig also show off a potential new project.

    I split my kneecap kickstarting a '69 Sportster that had been stroked out to 1200ccs(74ci.)
    It kicked backed, threw me up, and my left knee came down on the old style oil filler cap.
    Left me with a permanent limp.
    I still love old Sportsters.
    👍👍👍

      Perhaps you are right.
      At the time I only had ten years riding experience and owned only two Sportsters.
      I weighed 135lbs back then, and the only way I could put enough weight into it was by putting my left knee on the seat.
      When it kicked back, it lifted my knee up off of the seat and it came down on the oil cap.
      Thanks for the input.

    My first bike was an 1982 Harley XLCH. I remember washing it one day and seeing the starter was made in Japan. I remember writing Harley Davidson and asking what the heck. They told me that they didn't have a facility to make all of the parts and had to source parts from other countries. True story!

    I'm in Youngstown. Owned a '60 and a '72 Sportster. Now have a stock restored Model E Knucklehead only 214 medium compression units made. And a '99 FLSTS Heritage Springer, stock, Diamond Ice color. Love the fact they're 60 years apart. Hope to see you guys in Cleveland. Not sure why Sportsters got such a bad name. Great video!

    Seeing the gifts you send these boys and then seeing them open your parcel on their youtube channel is better than seeing yourself on the cover of the Rolling Stone. Well just saying, I never seen my self on the cover of the Rolling Stone, but i think it would be better to send these boys all your shelved items so they can raise more stockers / choppers / bobbers back from the dead!!

    I have a 1966 XLH that took a long time to figure the right starting procedure. I won't go thru the whole complex drill but UR right about giving it a lot of throttle. If mine does not start right up it floods easy so I give it 1/3 or more throttle and it fires.

    one of my ironheads is a 76. I have sportster knee from that one. Twice the kick didnt engage with all my weight on it as I kicked hyperextending my right knee. First time it just hurt a little , second time it had me on the ground next to it. I weigh 250 pounds . Im into serious weightlifting. Me and that 76 have a love hate thing. My 73 starts easy. Love my late 84 as its electric start. they are all choppers.

    I think the choke is sticking on the 70. It needs a high octane topper with a snort of mystery oil.run that bitch ruthless no choke. It will free that sticky valve.
