Harley-Davidson Sportster V-Twin Ironhead Engine Rebuild Time-Lapse | Redline Rebuild - S1E6

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 มิ.ย. 2017
- After three months, 20,000 photos, and more than our share of hurdles (especially finding parts), we’ve completed another Redline Rebuild time-lapse video. This time around, Hagerty’s Davin Reckow tackles a two-wheel project, a bit of a Frankenstein bike with the heart of a 1957 Harley-Davidson XL Sportster. No seriously, its engine is an ironhead V-twin from a first-year Sportster. So strap on your helmet because we’re about to speed things up a bit.
Part 2: • Classic Harley-Davidso...

Hagerty amazing job.....amazing editing......honestly....well done
Damn! time lapse vids are just awesome, they are shot at almost full camera resolution and that is why does not matter when you pose, the 'frame' is razor sharp, so much detail!
These rebuild time lapse video series is the most satisfying thing to watch on youtube, ever!
You are truly IGNORANT
By far the very best time lapse video I've ever seen. Appropriate music, volume level spot on. Very nice work. Thanks.
No dejo de ver este video. Hace 2 años vi este video y cada vez que tengo a la oportunidad lo vuelvo a ver. Me facina el trabajo que haces. Me encantaria dedicarme a lo que te dedicas y tener el conocimiento que tenes. Un abrazo desde Buenos Aires, Argentina.
I love these time lapse builds you guys do, keep it up!
you guys have the best time lapse rebuild videos EVER
This is so entertaining the amount of knowledge and skill you guy’s have this is probably all just muscle memory at this point. I’m AMAZED!
This is gorgeous in all ways. Thank you! Hats off to master craftsmen.
What a beautiful piece of artwork! The camera is very nicely done, soundtrack is cool and the mechanics is first class!
Impressive skills, both in time-lapse shooting and engine rebuild.
the paint job on that beauty gives me flashbacks to Johnny’s Hexxer from Lost and Damned lol
love it, nice work, guys.
Bloody awesome and great to see these bikes still exist today.
Just look in the background at the machine shop when the heads are being done. So many years of awesome
the amount of patience required to do this is amazing man kudos to the fullest extent. 7 million views well deserved
awesome video. that V twin a thing of beauty. Such craftsmen to rebuild her!
This is really amazing, thank you for putting this together.
Absolutely love these!!
Hey Bryan!
Man, my dad and I watched all the videos back to back! We're in the process of rebuilding his '66 f100 with my three older brothers as well.
Einfach Mega eure Videos 👌. Die werden nie langweilig und es gibt immer wieder neue Projekte zu bestaunen. Weiter so !!! Beste Grüße aus Deutschland 🇩🇪😎
By far my favorite youtube channel. Have my like!
You have quickly become my new obsession on TH-cam.
I've been watching you guys for quite a while now and you never fail to amaze me love your videos.
Discovered this channel a while ago and forgot how enjoyable it is whether it be about a Harley or any other motorcycle.
You sir are doing superb work. You stated on the Sportster rebuild the original cast Pistons were failure prone due to cast Pistons. Did you replace them with something more durable? You must have spent days on the phone and Internet looking for parts. But though I am 67 and can remember the first time I saw one outside the showroom was when the kid took delivery of the bike. His first Harley and he saved every fricken dime, Nickle, and penny to buy it. Worked at a small independent Harley dealer one owner three employees. He was paid $1.65 an hour in 1957 and it took three years of saving every penny he could. Half the bike was paid by CoCa-Cola by returning bottles for the $.02 cent deposit for each bottle. Everyone laughed at him until he got the bike paid in full. First mod was to paint in red the name CoCa-Cola Fired on both sides, in October, 1958 he was drafted and wound up in the U. S. Army and served 9 months in Germany where he died in a traffic accident off duty. I was 8 years old when he died and it still hurts to this day even though he was 11 years older than me. To me he was the nicest guy I ever met and would answer all my questions about engines and bikes. Never saw him get mad and throw a wrench though he said the wrench was trying to escape his hand at times.
His mother still has the bike sitting in her basement and for some reason called me back in 88 when she walked up to me and asked if I was little Jimmy which was what her son called me and I'd hand him tools and run to the store for Cokes.
I talked with her about her son Joe until we realized we had been sitting on the bench in front of the store for over 3 hours. I was shocked when she said she still had the bike and even more when she said I could see it. After three weeks of cleaning and polishing it looks like the day he rode it out of his bosses shop brand new. I won't start it even though she said I could, it's got drag pipes on it and I don't think her ears could stand it at her age. I asked he what she plans to do with it and she told me I'll find out when she dies. There were other kids who hung around his garage when he was polishing the bike or working on it but the mothers would freak out and drag there kids back home not wanting them influenced by the " bad biker " living here. My mom thought after she met him that he was fine but mom was the only one to do so. I've got a bad left knee from a bike accident in 76 the other knee went bad a few years ago and 5 stainless steel screws in my left foot. If by some miracle I get the Sportster I will get ridden by me once on its final trip by going back home to the factory in Milwaukee to become part of the factory museum with the story of its history engraved in Brass.
The ole Lady still walks 5 miles every day and I think will outlive me. She tried to give the bike to me several years ago but I refused because I could see in her eyes she didn't mean it.
It still sits in her basement.
Thank you for bring back the sight and sound of a Sportster getting restored and if you ever offer the 20,000 pictures with a narration in realtime on DVD I will order a set.
Thank you.
Note:
I as requested will not tell anyone where the bike is so save your breath. I if necessary will take it to my grave.
This is fucking awesome guys. You deserve way more subs.
NOT SO MUCH!! They're inbred idiots that can't understand a performance motorcycle.
that is insane
how you can take all those components apart and put them back together just by memory
By rote brother, by Rote. I've built so many thousands of engines, I still sometimes dream about doing them. And wining best in class in a car show once. Resto-modding rifles...
Once you know the parts and where they go, 99% of engines follow the same or similar formula. They're not as complicated as they seem.
thats the reason why they take more than 10k of pictures
sad to say harley has flaw engines
if you do it the first time, it's a bit like putting together a puzzle, most components just fit in a specific place and only the right way around, you can't put them in wrong. A clean and tidy workspace, preferably big enough to lay down the parts in the order you took it apart, makes the job much easier too. The only really difficult part of putting it back together is torquing everything the right amount and in the right order.
Watched this with Steve Earle's 'Carrie Brown' playn. Loved it!!
Man, I've seen a few engines, but this is truly a marvel. I guess there is a reason old engines last longer than new ones.
TO BE CONTINUED......ARGH! lol....Cant wait to see the rest!
Its available now! Check the description
Not a fan of cruiser videos but gaaa damnnnn that piston lured me in!
That bike is far from a "cruiser"
This is so inspiring to watch. The job is awesome and the edit of the video is godlike, its what differs from normal youtube videos. I was going to comment on the smashed look the piston had but someone did it already. Cant wait for part 2. Gj guys
I would happily watch a complete rebuild of nearly anything with an engine in this format, no matter how long the video would be.
Great content
Nice video! Keep it up!
Goosebumps…heeps of goosebumps…GREAT JOB!!!!
fabulous cinematography, and the machine work was excellent too.subscribed
Who ever shot this film defenetly have insane skills
Dean Griswald He's taking about the way it was filmed stupid, stop being so triggered about all of these complements.
@@fulcrum2168 schizophrenia?
Great video as usual, you should do a video about how you film all of these!
Devious De they did
What's the video called?
NO
One of the best bike, one of the best technical crew, you are amazing, best regards from Old world
I don't know bro how you've made this time lapse
but this is one of the best time lapse I've ever seen.
Pure Joy to watch😘
amazing and very skilled.
same tech as my 1953 royal enfield bullet- piss easy.
NOT SO MUCH!!!!
Soo I watched about 5 of these now and thought, "hey let's watch some other people do a time lapse" OH BOY was I disappointed.
Yall are doing something special over there. I don't think I can end my day till I watch a few more. Keep up the great work👏👏
PLEASE DO ONE OF THESE VIDEOS WITH A TWIN CAM 2000-2005...THIS WAS FUN TO WATCH!
song 1 : OjOutLaw - Cold Plunge
song 2 : Flux - Hairstanding :)
Thanks ..brow
christophe vergniez thankssss
Thanks bro 👍🙏
1:16 the REAL reason for this rebuild : )
Dropped a valve?
Thanks 4 the upload! Amazing work!
I really like that primary cover!
Want one for my '74!!
Wow. That piston looked bad. What happened to it?
Something had to be loose in there? Broken Valve?
You nailed it. Broken Valve.
Hagerty Matt I think the piston nailed it more... xD
At about 1:00 in, you can see the failed valve retainer and spring during the disassembly - perhaps the valve head came off. Could have been the retainer was aluminum, never liked those for anything other than racing applications.
good eye but that was the other cylinder
Finally find music
Gyom Renegade Audio CARS 3 SOUNDTRACK
I could watch that for an hour. Great job!
Is a wonderful work, completely handmade and whose result is simply the best that can be produced.
Imagine doing all that every Wednesday. That's what it's like to own a Harley 😆
Haha. These are the "real bikes" that you need to pump an extra 15k into to gain another 10 hp. Yeah sweey Harley bro. The company is going out of business anyways. There will be plenty of restoration videos to come.
@I know you are right, And I just got owned but: its alright man.
@Jmac1000000 nobody can argue that! Expensive garage ornaments.
watch at 0.25 speed in the settings icon and you can actually learn something about the rebuild,
Absolutely love this bike, LOVE the end of the video, hilarious.
Nice video! No boring feeling at all on your 5minute video.
Just.. what was that piston..
That piston lost a fight with a dismembered valve.
and they could still use the head?

That's it I'm done I'm becoming to become a Harley-Davidson
Really cool video! I was surprised to see you are using those stones for the valve seats. I'm a Neway guy from the get go! Sure would like to have your hone. I have a Sunnen rigid hone with a drill. It gets the job done, but OH! I'd rather have your set up!
Sweet little bike. It hurt my heart to see it is going to be different when the Sparks started flying, but I anxiously await a tasteful change!
I think Hagerty technicians know everything about assembly,,, amazing,,,

whats name of the first song??????????answer please
Phenomenal amount of work...and I enjoyed the tasteful soundtrack as well
U know the name of the soundtrack?
It's incredible how simple those hd engines are!!
whats the music name ?
song?
Awesome work.Real craftsman.
Unbelievably satisfying to watch 👏🏻
How much would you all charge to rebuild my 79 honda CX500 engine?
This is so much better than porn.
What a great Full Service shop. In house machining and Expert Mechanics. Way beyond the skills and abilities you will find in your average Harley Store.
I love these videos, amazing production quality
what music is it in the background ?!! someone please mention if you can !! thanks in advance
Chinmay Roy First music I don't know.
But,Second music is "Flux-Hairstanding".
Just think soon all this will be replaced with just a battery and electric motor and this will become in the future seen like a steam engine in complexity , and people will say by golly they went to a lot of trouble just to have a motor .
Excellently made video 👌🏽👌🏽 Good soundtrack too 😎
Nice to see he's cutting the valve seats correctly! When cut correctly you don't lap them in. You grind the valve and seat with an interference fit so that the are ground at two different angles and as the valve and seat wear they seal better longer.
may i know the background song
It's called "piston broke, I know the feeling well"
@@bonkeydollocks1879 serious??
@@iamdaywalker it's a joke, see if you can work it out
Am I the only thinks this is better than watching porn?
KoolFOTO yes
KoolFOTO yesssss facts
Yes
No, your the only one!
Yup
My 1976 XLH has (spacer washers) with the cam gears. Interesting, I didn't see any with this engine.
Spacer washers are needed to correct 'end play' with each gear.
All engines are unique with their own spacer stack up. Usually these washers will get left out during amateur rebuilds or replacing the cover with a chrome plated one.
Cool video. Thanks.
Solche Videos sind einfach nur genial
Name of first song?

One of if Not the Best Time lapse videos of yours I have seen. P.S. Never knew they had such tall piston domes.
No matter how much work you put into it, it will still be just a Harley Davidson.
Harley Davidson when they turn fossil fuels into sound without the "side effects" of HP.
I am not a Harley guy by any means. Most of these plastic Milwaukee Parade Floats make me laugh. I have always wanted to find a nice clean 'Sporty' to put in the barn for the odd ride. They don't exist. POOF... they've all been dragged through accessory hell and left in sad shape.
@hugh-john fleming I don't know were you live but in the Chicago market most of the low mileage bikes are Sportsters.
Thats why you go japanese
Cool video. That crankshaft is awesome. Symbol of America.
Finally I found the follow up video.
Thank you
mechanic rather work on harleys cause there simple. but mechanic rather own a japanese cycle cause he never has to work on it.
Justin bustin Mechanics hate two-strokes because the owners do their own rebuilds in an afternoon over a six pack and leftover pizza, leaving the mechanic with no income. lol.
JETZcorp indeed im a mechanic and love 2 stroke motors. smell and simplicity and cost.
YES!!!!!
2 strokes are simple and cheap just simply take off 4 bolts bam you got the head off and can renplace piston
I have a bike shop and rebuild 70,s japanese 4 and 2 strokes all the time. Air cooled is air cooled.
What a fantastic video clip. Thanks for sharing.
DAAAM!! That was a well orchestrated video!😮
Thank you for the time and effort that was put into this vid!!!!!!!
Much as I hate Harley's this is one of the best rebuild vids I have ever seen.
I love how they do a spotless meticulous job, yet the shop is a mess. I can certainly relate.
Unbelievable,that team rebuilding anything 😮😳👌
Love to see the real time video, good stuff..
Wow that's great 👍 . I satisfy and love your working guys . The amazing footage !
Been there done that... I went with a hydraulic clutch, alternator, scorpion six spring basket, 79" S&S, and much much more. Loved it but it was a 💰 pit!
Good job. This shop and guys have made skills. My aunt and uncle could rip these apart and put them back together in a day.
Anxiously waiting for part two!!
You are the best team I ever see before!!!👍🤘👏
