- This video will cover these topics:
Weak points in evo cam chest and how to correct them.
Lifter wheel breakage - which can easily take out your whole motor - and how to detect and fix it.
Front pully and the leak problem behind it.
A few other tips as well.

Brotherhood in biking,,can't beat the hospitality those folks gave you
May the motor last another huge distance and carry you on more adventures scotty
✊
glad to see there are still some down to earth folks out there, much love and respect to them all
Yea them Utah people are really cool. Very friendly / helpful.
Great video, Scotty. A+. You certainly put a lot of time into this one for us. I learned a lot.Cheers.
This one DID take a lot of time. Oh well, its a job!
Really nice people here, home cooked meals looked great....
YOU SCORED 🏁 Happy veterans Day! Those were some fine folks who helped you out... Rat shop or not...pure gold as people!
Motor sounds good. Glad you threw the fat cam in 🐒
I have a ‘94 Road King. I have learned a little bit about working on Evo motors by watching this channel. 👍
Glad ya found a motor. Your correct about the satisfaction of fixing what you can when you can.
Wow! The biker community is again shown to be the coolest, hardest, most helpful group around. Sounds like the old bike has another hundred thousand miles to go! Thanks Scotty. I am again inspired thru your channel and folks you show me. Stay safe! fred
I am a few years older than you and bought my '97 FLHRI new. Fantastic video on the motor exchange, very informative. You are living my dream. Ride safe, keep 'em comin'. Thanks
I’ve been watching your videos for awhile now , and i keep going back because you put really interesting to me , videos of your travels ! Great job Scott ! Thanks bro !
Thanks, Rick, and all who helped and assisted Scotty's return to the black top and start accumulating miles on that "new" EVO. Go Scotty!
Man, every Evo owner in the country should watch this. You basically cover every weakness in that engine/drivetrain. I still remember changing out the rear pully and belt on my old FXRT because I ran the belt too loose, and it wore through the case hardening on the pully. Teeth squared off and cut that belt to pieces! Lesson learned.
Absolutely amazing group of guys at that shop huh scotty. What an awesome thing they done for you man. Your a legend Scotty...thanks for sharing this procedure man. Thumbs up as always brother...
Kneez in the breez man...
Sometimes in life it's not what ya know it's who ya know ! your brothers in arms . Sweet
Good to hear your up and rolling again. Motor sounded good. Ought to be good for another 100 thou.
@18:05 It's not the way you do this! The look on Rick was priceless. I enjoy hearing Scotty bust balls.. Reminds me of the "Good ole Days!"
Thanks for sharing cam gear info etc..
Slight spoilers of Scottys book below.
I bought your book recently, I feel like I've found an old friend. Currently, 29, in the Navy ( on a carrier right now).
Your message and videos bring me peace and reassurance that I'm not insane. The death/rebirth of your characters.... I've felt that, it's like bartering with your soul/self, in how you interact with the outer world, and thru pain comes transformation. Too relatable. One day, I'd be honored to ride with you.
Thanks Scotty
Think id go nuts being on a ship that long Chris. Spent 6 days on one once and couldnt wait to get off it by the end. That whole book leads to a punchline at the end that brings it all together. And as u probably already know, that thing is like 5 completely different stories in one. The last ones the longest and by far the best i think.
It sure sounded good nice job Scotty , God speed 👍
What a cool mechanic vid. What a cool bunch of friends helping out.
What an amazing community, looks like you made some new friends!
No doubt 😊
Good content really enjoyed video glad to see you rolling again
glad you got sorted. Great to meet you!
Glad to see ya back on the road brotha! Those were some awesome people at that shop.
Reed breather is the way to go.
ive had one in my 97 fatty for10000 miles works a treat , no issues at all
Awesome video, thanks for posting Scotty!
You meet some amazing people
Definitely!
Sure liked the video. Nice to see there are still good folks out here. I'll certainly patronize that shop when in the area.
No doubt about it, fixing your own stuff, or making someone else's throwaway stuff work is satisfying.
I just finished up a kitchen table and chairs set for my wife. The neighbors ordered a set, and it showed up broken.They got a new one from the same store. That one shows up damaged. The neighbors tossed them out. I picked up the pile, and in a 3 hrs of work, consisting of some drilling, glue, clamps, a couple of braces, the wife has a new dinner table with chairs. Good on that shop for opening up their place for you. Thanks for letting me live the nomad life through you, Scotty!
Men who can fix stuff are rare these days 😊
that seems a pretty good on the week expense wise loved these two videos and hat tilt to Dirty Rat Cycles i love these thechy type videos
The inside the cam chest info was very interesting! So much like a Knucklehead or Panhead!
I think youre right
But the evo is simpler and has less moving parts than either of those motors. I find that very interesting.
@@scootertrampscotty
Yes, HD simplified and improved the Knucklehead-Panhead platform while keeping the original Bill Harley authenticity intact. That's why we love it so much.
I’ve had a few twin cams in the past. Upgraded to an EVO last year. Went through the cam chest and primary, put a new intake manifold and CV carb on it. It is satisfying to make it go on your own.
Defiantly!
The guys in that shop are great guys and everyone else who helped you but Rick is a really good guy God Bless them all 🙏🏻
Hes also one of the best all around HD mechanics ive ever met.
Congrats to your 'refurbished' bike. Nice you had some folks around with the right mindset and skills ! 👍
Great video, everyone who helped is awesome and certainly deserves all the thanks.
Glad you got your bike going and it warms the heart to see people helping people out.
Glad you are back on the road. Be safe.
🤙
Congratulations on the new motor. 🎉
Hey Scotty I bet it feels good to have your bike practically new again, hopefully nothing else happens till a very long time, thanks for the video man I learned a few things from this video,, be safe on the road my brother......🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Always feels great when your bikes in good shape again!
Hey Scotty, glad to see you’re up and running again. Hopefully this one will last you a long time sounds like you did a great job. The bike sounded good and you must be a happy camper with that. I wish you luck and safe travels.😊
Hey Scotty. If its dual plugged and set upfor a super G, maybe the low commoression is because of a BIG cam. Lots of over lap an duration
The low milage stock 1998 certainly looked better than the molested 1985 motor 😊
Hey Scotty, On your old channel you had several videos on a repair playlist. I would play on repeat. On TV out in my garage while wrenching. You had a wide variety of different topics on your old playlist with several videos under each topic.
I would greatly appreciate it, if you were to add your repair videos back to your new playlist. You have some of the best info on Evos available. Your videos showed me how to R&R my compensater and Stator, clutch..etc. And a whole lot more.... Thank you for sharing your Knowledge Freedom and Liberty.
I intend to get around to that Jet
Most Harley Motors are so loud that the rider/owner won't know that anything is wrong util it blows up.
Might want to considering doing used oil sampling.
Great stuff Scotty loved it! Ride free in America 🇺🇸
good brother, glad you are made whole again. of course your probably in Mexico by now but now less worries. Thanks to everyone that chips in to make this happen. the world is full of good guys, don't let the media tell you otherwise.
Its true
Hey scotty, really enjoyed that vlog.
I know it's not your normal type of content but found it really interesting and the way you explained the mechanicals was excellent . Great work 🤟
Oh, the subject matter of my vids just fluctuates with whatever i tend to find interesting, or sometimes just because ones easy to make. Most tale a lot of time.
Really interesting video, I don't have a harley but I envy the straight forward way they are built and how you can work on them. You got some good people helping you to. Stay safe and enjoy that motor.
Great video. Happy riding. 😀
In this day and age of media we tend to see the worst in people. But you, and others, are showing us there's still good people out there, more than we realize. They're whats is keeping America free. Thanks for opening the cover of your life and sharing. God bless your travels. may the road ahead be filled with good people.
Dont watch Main Media
Yours too 😊
Great video, happy trails and many trouble free miles
Always find the Brotherhood on the road no matter where I am.
Motor sounds great, always enjoy your videos, stay warm 🌵🌵
Nice new motor video very educational to some of us even though I'm pretty mechanicly in clined I still have a lot to learn about harley engines before I tear into one on my own, thank you for sharing all of that Mr Scotty
Practice makes perfect. . .or at least u get better 😊
Good stuff ✌️
We love these how too, "desert island fixes"and than all the variations of, etc......Plus the professional way,vs the minimal way.... The long distance were and tear fixs that a lot of guys never experience.Your knowledge of high mileage were and tear is invaluable ......Plus you put out a kind of self taught confidence that others pick up on and run with it....(thank you) Last and most important is your relation ships with all of these great guys and shops around this wonderful country of ours(and not to forget the great gals as well) thank you for giving us a very persanal look at your life. Now i know of another great shop, thanks to all you mechanics that help keep the" scoot " T.S." on the road...God bless you,montana Guy from the high lonesome...
Alot of that experience was really hard won 😊
WOW, YA CANT BEAT AN OLE ROAD DOG'S EXPERIENCE KNOWING ABOUT THE BEARINGS AND PLASTIC CRAP! I HOPE THAT EVO SERVES YOU WELL BRO. IT IS MY GOAL TO RIDE UTAH ONE DAY!
The Manufacturers and aftermarket have been having troubles for awhile with lifers not hardened correctly. Great video 👍👍
I think u are right. Got an older set of low milage liters in there now.
Hey Scotty, would you rather us watch your videos on TH-cam or Rumble? Which is best for helping your monetizing?
Whats very best for the American people is always any other channel besides CensorTH-cam. The people should never allow/participate in censorship. With that said, my rumble channel is monitized, my utube channel is not.
Great video, Scotty !! 👍
I just traded my Evo Fat boy for a Twinkie road king. We're both happy so I guess it's all good. I must check the cam tensioners though. So far this has been my favorite couple videos Scotty. Be safe out there.
l dropped a bottom bearing on the front pot in middle of nowhere 1500 miles from home....bought 2nd hand evo for $3k & still going strong in my 94 FLSTN..... & l chewed out a lifter & cam in my 84 softail l had.. was easy fix.. so l feel yoy pain mate..at least changing a evo is a pretty easy job... cheers mate & hope ya get pleanty miles on this motor.. cheers from Down Under..
U must be riding the damn thing!
@@scootertrampscotty l sure do... cheers
Looking at picking up a 89 tour glide tomorrow, first evo, first Harley, excited to get into this thing
The old ones are geared to low as im sure youll see. Easiest way to fix that is to intall a 34 tooth front belt pully (2 extra teeth). And no belt change nessasary, just slide the rear wheel forward some. Each tooth will change your 5th gear about 5 mph. Id buy a steel pully from either Andrews or Baker.
I mean old like in the 80s. The factory geared 5 speeds up by the mid 90s as speed limites went up.
I didn't know anything about Harleys. My friend said his was making a noise. I went to his house and listened. (I am good with a lot of different engines) I told him it sounded like a tappet. I went on utube and looked up how to remove tappets from harley. He had adjustable pushrods. Sure enough bad tappet. It wiped out cam too. Ultima engine. Found new cam on ebay. Used new S&S lifters. Didn't replace plastic breather and now wish I did. Any way liked working on it so much I bought a 1998 Dyna super glide for myself. Replaced lifters cam bearing breather SS&S and put in Andrews ev23 cam.
U like that cam? It still good over 3000 rpm?
Still working on the motorcycle painting tank fenders and side cover so I haven't driven bike yet. I like it so far but that is just listening to it in the driveway. Seems like a really good cam pulls from 1500 on.....according to andrews.@@scootertrampscotty
Emery is the man!!! I'm proud to call him my friend. Love the dude.
THanks Scotty IMlearning alot watching your videos
Great video Scotty nice to get going with all those fresh engine n parts, good you stayed with the factory cam, 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Scotty, good description of the cam chest parts and operation. To me, it’s the most complex part of the engine. Bearings and gears all wearing no matter what oil you use or how often you change it. I just went thru all kinds of hell rebuilding my old Shovel. The cam chest presented the biggest fitment issues. Good luck with that new engine.
Its the bottom ends that scare me
Don't scare me Scotty as long as they are not to ugly😂
@@terryswann2592
Or smelly
Great video Scotty! Thanks for sharing! You're a Legend! Let's Go Brandon! 👍🏻🏍🇺🇸
Awesome video and awesome content can’t wait for the next video Thank’s Scotty
Still good people in the world
Finally 🙌✌️
I just picked up a set of Evo lifters from the Harley dealership; $90 for the set. Sometimes the MoCo surprises you. Great video as always, and great maintenance tips!
Those are some nice shops 🤘🏻SCOOTER back on the road 🙂👊🏻
Good lucky with new motor
Very cool of those guys helping you out! New motor sounds great!
You should wash all oil lines out if you got a oil cooler clean it out good
I replaced all the oil lines. It really needed it
Excellent tech rundown on lifters. Fully enjoyed the video man. 👍👍
This is a great video I love the story and all the knowledge I learned about the bike. Thanks for sharing
I have a set of early stock heads that fit right on that 85 evil motor.
great video looking forward to more great story of tractor and farming
Very interesting, I wonder if my 08 1200 Sportster has the same lifter vulnerabilities? Glad you've getting everything all fixed👍
The genuine HD "Dash B" lifters are much improved upon. 18523-86B
What makes these better? I really wanna know.
@scottykerekes2471 im sure you are aware that any time the Mo-Co improves upon a part they assign a "dash" number to it. I've had the same issue you had with the previous part number and only lasted 30k miles. Since then, I've purchased the Dash B ones, and so far, they've been holding up significantly better. I've got 60k on my dash b ones and recently pulled it apart just for peace of mind on my end, and they're all still good. I threw them back in and will address them in another 40k miles. I think they made the shaft thicker, or possibly the bearing was improved upon. I wish I knew....
I do know that they're significantly improved upon from their previous version. Just my 2 cents.
That motor sounds sweet
Sounds like you got it all covered Scottie. You pretty much swapped everything but the compensator. As clean as that motor was, you should be good for a while. I have a 98 FLSTC and do basic maintenance every 3 months. The only thing I ever had issue with was my lifter block screws came loose on me all at once, all 8 of them started backing off and I lost some oil, scraped the blocks and lifters, replaced blocks, lifters, cam, and pushrods. Now they're blue lock tight at torque spec max. No more issue. I know this is going to sound crazy but your motor seems louder than before. But mine has that louder sound as well and I'm running stock pipes. I'm looking for another video with your old motor running so I can compare the sounds. Be safe...
Yeah. This pipe used to be a lot quieter. I even tepacked it but it keeps getting louder. They tell me pipes become "seasoned" and change sound. I think its true.
Good info scotty
Great details man! Keep on rollin! God Bless!
Awesome video! Thanks for sharing.
Ride on Scotty! Great times on the rode
Hell yah
OLD SCHOOL BIKERS ALWAYS COME THROUGH
Great bunch of guys !
Damn I would give anything to have a shop like that that I could actually live in !
Well, i was pretty happy when it was time to leave. U could see snow on the mountain peaks my then.
@@scootertrampscotty yeah luckily we see snow every few years here in eastern NC and it only stays around a couple of days
Looking Good Scotty... Back into "wind therapy" :-))
Why do I work on my own vehicles of any kind? Simply because I can, and I know it was done "right". I say that but there's obviously someone who's better than me. It's just that I absolutely know what was done when I did the repairs. That's the satisfaction of doing it myself, and I've seen the condition of the motor for myself.
It's also good th know you're running again and won't get snowed in for the winter in Utah.
Definitely
Excellent lessons for people running an evo most problems were very common issues moco evo lifters are pretty damn good ,Very relevant information 1800 $ won't get you a oil change at harley that evo build will last .many miles motocycle gods willing I envy your lifestyle ride on sst
good to see you Scotty
Great video scotty, Thank you 👍🏼
Awesome video awesome people
In life things just always seem to work out. That's my experience. 🇨🇦
Replace the INA cam bearing, and put a Torrington bearing. 93 was last year for factory Torrington bearing.
