    Cool video. I just bought a 75 model ironhead that needs some work too. It runs really good. The clutch is slipping sometimes and alot of other stuff that needs to be done. 🙂

    Im looking to restore and custom build my dads 84 sportster. He left it to me when he passed a few years ago and it needs pretty much a ground up rebuild. I dont have any motorcycle exp as my only mechanic exp is in aviation. What books or resources would you recommend for gaining some knowledge on motorcycle restoration

    • @ironridermoto
      @ironridermoto  ปีที่แล้ว

      100000% the factory service manual and the factory parts book. These are the only 2 you need. Happy wrenching! 👊
