Great video and explanation. Love the attention to detail in chasing the threads and cleaning the stock parts. Mistake in using engine mount bolts and torquing brings me to what we say to make fun of ourselves, “we do it right cause we do it twice!” Great job!

I still watched the entire video... Even though I have already installed the sputhe kit on my 2016 FXDLS with new engine mounts. Definitely helps! I think it took me a hour to do it all. Definitely helps removing the rear wheel, but I didn't have a lift either

That rear stabilizer is no joke. I just put one on my 04 fxd. I did not disconnect the rear suspension. I Probably should have, but it's on now. I ended up just using a super long 1/4" extension in the aft hole, got the front in, and then it was easier to do the rear bolt. Hopefully, it kills the wobble for the time being. Appreciate the video help with figuring out the stabilizer mounting.

@@GilstrapGarage 🤣 I know how that goes! My wife and my mother love to ask how long a mechanical task is gonna take and I usually kinda roll my eyes and laugh and just tell them how long it's probably gonna take but you never know what you're gonna run into. One rusty or broken nut, bolt, something hard to get to, don't have the right tool, etc etc can turn a half hour job into half a day or more.

I have a 1981 FLT (first Harley to ever have rubber motor mounts). What is interesting is, that it has the stabilizers for sideway movement installed from the factory. Even the swingarm rubbers are stabilized by the frame. If you ask me the design was better in the old days.

In theory almost everything back in the day is. With each passing day and with companies being handed down to other generations, especially these eras with those who see business owners or entrepreneurs such as Jeff bezos hoarding billions and almost trillions now they also look to cut as many corners as possible to make as much profit as possible. There's no pride in the product anymore it's all pride and how big and deep your pockets go.

I have a 03dyna wide glide, and I am not sure if im getting the wobble or if it's just wind buffeting. When I hit straight aways, at around 65, 70, i definitely feel the front end shaking a bit, but it's also happening especially when crossing a bridge, or passing tractor trailers. ????? Either way, it's a little unnerving, and may do some of these add-ons just in case, so to speak. Great video, thanks for doing this. Stay safe man.

Thanks for the Vid ! I agree, the Dyna chassis,powertrain mounting system is sketchy AF. You forgot to the mention the softail lowrider S alternative. No leaks, plenty of power and handles like a dream. That Dyna is very nice and I would guess over 20k invested.

True, after I watched the video back I realized I didn’t say anything about the softail. Maybe I’m still upset with myself for not buying one 🤣 I bought my dyna new in 2017, and I almost waited for the “2018 Dyna” to release. When they killed it that year, I talked a lot of smack about the new platform….until I rode one. Hands down a superior motorcycle

Always wondered if the Sputh Stabilizer (which I have) would fit with the Speed Merchant skid plate (which I also have). Thanks for clearing that up. Was wondering if you went with the Glide Pro rear motor mount as well or just the front? Also any word on how the set up of Sputh plus Pro Glide went after install? Thanks again from Aus & Ride On (AC/DC reference 😉 ).

Man, I’ve done motor mounts where they are in and out in a breeze. This was the worst I’ve ever had the drivetrain shift on me though. On another note, it may be a lot easier to install just the Sputhe if you don’t remove the motor mounts like I did. I’ll have an honest opinion about that in the near future because I will be installing some on my bike.

Hey B, I'm caught between a V-twin and a hard place. I have two friends, both of whom want to sell me their bikes. I can only buy one and in your mechanical opinion, which is the better purchase: a 2009 Road Glide or a 2007 Dyna. I did not list mileage on either because I'm going to do an engine swap as soon as I snag whichever, so my main concern is pure fun factor. I've never understood the pay more to go slower (power-to-weight ratio) of baggers but they do have more of a boss hog presence and at the same time - I do like the looks of a well done Dyna. Both quoted me $8,000 (and the Dyna already has top and bottom mounted stabilizers) and if you were deciding between the two, which direction would you go? Especially if you knew that you were going to revamp everything anyway. I live in San Diego (lots of mandatory freeway riding) so the Road Glide wins out on long-distance quality but in all seriousness --- I am not buying a motorcycle for comfortability. That's what Cadillacs are for. Glide or Dyna? Which would John Wick pull up on?
@GilstrapGarage
@GilstrapGarage 2 жыл бұрын
That’s a tough question man, lol. I love smashin long distance miles, and have no problem doing it on a dyna. Parts availability, you’ll be able to find used stuff all day long for they dyna especially in San Diego. But for $8k, I’d lean towards the bagger. That number is a pretty good mark on the dyna, and it’s real good on that bagger. Roll the bagger, if you feel like you made the wrong choice sell it and get a dyna!

Not necessarily. You can grab a long pry bar or something and check for excessive play. You can also check to see if the drivetrain is pushed back towards the frame excessively
