    If you did not find a loose battery connection,, then possibly your coil is dyng. Sometimes they will work cool, but once egine heat builds they will loose fire.

    Be sure to check your ground post. Down behind the rear jug by the starter. I had that same problem on my dyna and turns out that it was just loose. Tightened it up and haven't had a problem since.

    I wish I would have known you were in town! I was literally 10 minutes away at a poker run. Next year it would be awesome if you come up and join us for at least the parade ride to the first stop. We have had as many as 400 bikes at the poker Run, and every year the start is police escorted, and intersections blocked for us to do a continuous parade from the start to the first stop. Next year the first stop should be the Ohio veterans memorial Park in Clinton Ohio, it is a place worth checking out regardless of a poker run or not

    On the "it could be worse" side, I was in Cleveland that weekend but spent it in the ICU instead of seeing the show. I was heading to Amanda's Rocky Mountain Roll on my Sporty when a sudden tire blowout sent me skidding sideways down I-90 at 70mph. I got to enjoy 5+ broken ribs, a punctured lung and a slight interior rip in my aorta.
    On the bright side my Sporty survived with minimal damage. I just need to swap out the handlebars and a couple cables to be back on the road.
    The old girl still runs fine.
    You just can't beat a Sportster.

      OMG. I am so glad you’re okay, honestly!! The sportster can be rebuilt. You on the other hand take more time. Here’s to a speedy and healthy recover friend. So sorry to hear about that. So scary!!

    I haven't been to Hale Farm since 1987. It's a great ride and a great place to visit. Hopefully, your Sportster won't give you any serious problems in the future. Weems built an amazing Ironhead Sportster! That Honda Shadow 600 was done right for a smaller displacement metric bike. My fave is the tough guy Shovelhead at 17:08. I like choppers built around drop seat swingarm frames. I liked the fact that bike's frame wasn't raked (just stretched in the down tubes). That EVO chopper at 18:27 is choice. I like the Soutwest vibe of the bike. Ride safe.

    Somewhat rare K- model at 20:44 on vid timer...Didn't see many of those out on the road decades ago.... Appears to be a lot Panheads...One of my favorite Harley engines.... Very nice custom builds at this event. ... Thanks for bringing us along...> You figure out the issue with your Sportster? Hopefully before your ride back...

    Sounds like your voltage regulator is trying to go out or it's connection/pigtail is coming loose. It's that little black box hanging off the front lower part of the frame behind the forks. Only has two bolts that hold it on. Get a Lectron brand if you replace it, not that Amazon Chinese crap. 😉
