Learn something every time I watch your videos. It's lucky I don't live in Englewood... I'd be at your door every day for rebuilding my 1970 Ironhead. Thanks again Jared. Hope the farm is shaping up.

Hey thanks Michael. Definitely been staying busy at the farm sorting things out, it will be nice eventually with a big shop and room to work. Thanks for watching buddy!

Got a 74 with a bolt on. Kick only. Fuel on cpl primes, turn on ignition, kick her through. Mine starts 1st or 2and kick. All about how the carb works.

The key to getting it to kickstart easy is to have a good battery, a good new coil and a electronic ignition. It will fire first kick every time. Next year it won't fire is easy. Buy a new coil lol

Hello from Ky Brother,.. I have just bought my 1st Harley ever. Its a 68 900cc sportster. I have a video of it on my page. I have a question.. well actually a few. I am new to working on Bikes and mine is the Points non-magneto version. I was wondering if you had a bike there that has the old distributor points ignition, and perhaps you could make a video on the proper way to time it please? Ive been replacing parts left and right on it and ill keep this bike forever. I have no desire to even look at another bike so Id really appreciate any help. I do have a manual but having a visual hands on description would be awesome. I dont want to mess my bike up. It was running before I had to pull the dis. out to get the cam cover off to replace the gasket. thanks for any help I love your videos! - Tim

timmylee1974 Hey Brother, I actually just picked up a 65 900 Xlch with a distributor. I've got a couple bikes about to come off the lifts soon and the 65's going on, that's one if the things I plan on replacing on mine too. Thanks for watching and stay tuned.

Hi again,.. well its time to order some parts for my bike via Ebay and I was wondering if you could help me out so I dont order the wrong stuff. I need a new generator,. I do know its the 12v system but is there a certain output that I need?.. and is there any way I can test my 3 terminal voltage regulator to make sure it works?..
@jfrost77hd
@jfrost77hd 7 жыл бұрын
timmylee1974 Hey Tim, I don't have generators listed on ebay but I do have a couple new chrome ones, I also have the 3 terminal voltage regulators. I could work you a deal on one or both. Sometimes the regulators just go bad, get a meter and check the output going from B+ to the battery. Also check what's going from the generator to the regulator. Think it was you I talked to about making sure you polarized the generator?

No but I did speak with you about how to properly time and set distributor ignition points on my 68 xlh.. If you dont mind me having your number you could text me.. I need a few other parts as well and some knowledge as well if you would be so kind. nice weather is here and I just want my damn bike running lol.. I know the gen Is bad and I just really wanted to change everything out for the charging system to new so I dont have to worry about it. I bought the bike from a guy that got it in on a trade and he didnt know anything about it other than it would run with a full battery. shoot me a text if you can brother.. 859 907 2191- Tim

Starting process stock 68 XLCH...fuel on, choke on, retard spark on Magneto, finger on kill button, kick twice, finger off kill button and kick hard all the way through! Just straddle the bike so you don’t snap off the kickstand!

Hmm this 68 has none of those... lol. This is an older video, it's magneto fired with a capacitor to eliminate having a battery and no electronic ignition here either. Its a good running bike now... have updates if you wanna check it out. Thanks for watching!
