It has been a while since I have uploaded a video on the FXR. Thankfully I have not been having any issues or repairs to make. This is just a brief update on what I have been doing with the bike.
Thanks again to @theridefactoryyborcity6647 for all of Joes knowledge. Thanks also to @UncleBogator and @BertsBarracuda for the ride and entertainment last Thursday. I hope I can make it to the next one.
I do have some more upgrades planned for the FXR so I will post an update when I have one.

Thanks so much! I have been struggling to make videos lately...but I'll be moving to Tennessee in about a month and the content should speed up.

Great looking bike! Idk if you found rear shocks yet but I got Race Tech GS3 14” for my 83 FXR and they’re amazing I paid $900 about.3 years ago. I often hear of people using Race Tech up front but not the rear but I couldn’t be happier with them

I ended up finding a set of fox piggyback shocks for like $500. They are great

You're right. But...if you go back and watch some of the previous videos, I have a clip of it running.

Progressive makes a 14.5 and I saw them at Low Brow custom for a good price. I went 2 over in the front and 4 over in the rear cause I'm big and didn't have the clearence. I hate leaning back in the seat.

Howd you get 4 over in the rear?

Yeah dude, it's so much work. Plus now that the bike has been up and running...I don't have much to talk about. Just been riding a lot.

My FXR also has a mikuni and I finished a full restoration a couple of months ago. Unfortunately, I've already burned out two starters after some startup time, Always working on the number. It's just very difficult for him to crank the engine, although the clutch crown is not the standard 66 teeth for easy starting ... I'm trying to figure this out now. And by the way, I also put new 14-inch bitubo on it and noticed that over time their adjusting ring unwinds when shaking at idle, changing the length of one or the other. I also don't know what to do with it

If you know your perfect adjustment, use loctite

The mikuni clone eh. Always heard bad things about them. Have you compared it to a real one?

@eff_ex_argg 9 ай бұрын

I have not. But I have had the clone on for a couple months now and it has been perfect. It runs a little rough when it's cold...but even the real mikunis do. After 4 minutes it's ripping.
