I thought I was watching a video about cleaning a Harley engine. How did this turn into some kind of therapy session!?

[@bigrednick100]

You’re videos are great. I certainly can identify with how you were feeling at the time this was made. It really is amazing how much you can learn on here.

[@Mr.Schitzengigglez]

Used a bunch of stuff on my '86 Sporty.
The original starter had every drop of leaked oil baked on.
Oven cleaner seemed to be a good friend.

I really appreciate your honesty and I love these videos!

[@HouseMadeUS]

Thank you man. 💪🏻

[@badassskier824]

This is a great video. Keep it up. Love to see it

thanks

Can I get the same look with a 2001 sportster engine. Mine doesn't have a smooth finish.

[@HouseMadeUS]

Is it a black textured finish? Like a powder coat?

[@zechariahliszewski]

@@HouseMadeUS I have the same question. Mines powdered but I am trying to get a better polished look. Thanks again man. I love the hammer videos as well. It is nice to get another perspective from those videos. Thanks again!

[@trevorhenry1003]

... wire wheels are going to embed into the aluminum and re oxidize or rust

[@HouseMadeUS]

Surprisingly that didn’t happen. Turned out great! 👍🏻

[@trevorhenry1003]

@@HouseMadeUS oh that's good!

[@scootertrash647]

Thought we was gonna see how to actually polish it. Waste of time

[@dbear3]

Appreciate the info but I think youd grow your following if you actually demonstrated the task rather than just explaining
