I was able to get these pipes installed no issue and they sound amazing. However, I can't seem to get the stock heat shields on..particularly the shield for the rear cylinder. Wondering if anyone else here has ran into that same problem.

@empcycleworks I know, but it will eat the oil pump eventually. Went through it with my 2012 ultra limited 103. I got 60k on it, and the crank shifted. At that point, I rebuilt the bike in 2022. Now it's amazing(20k later). I have a 24 Road King, so we will see how that goes. Love my Harleys . Like any toys they are not cheap to play with.

Harley engines have all gotten too large. A 96 inch motor for a motorcycle is enormous. None of us are pulling school busses out of the mud. Pick nearly any 750+ cc crotch rocket motor and put it in a rigid frame and you'll have a faster bike in similar style. 350 Hondas used to be "big bikes" and 500cc up Triumphs were massive. Harley's always been oversized. Don't get me wrong, I still love all of them, I just think there's something being missed being missed chasing after 100ci plus mills.

Ive had 7 Harleys. Ive changed starters on all of them, but this is just stupid. 2004 FXST, I've never had to remove this much shit to change a starter. I think this bike hates me anyway, i have it fir sale and every time i ride it something else breaks. Really. Since I've had it for sale, ive had to replace the battery, fuel pump, sending unit, front tire, battery, and front brakes. Then the starter took a shit. Either it doesn't want to leave, or it just doesn't like me.

@@empcycleworks I couldn't get to the bolts or the electrical on mine without removing the oil tank. And I left the primary intact. I might have to wiggle it a little but the new starter will go in without removing anything else. But I had to pull the old starter out and measure it before ordering a new one so the bike is going to sit there like that for a few days. Just a PITA. I had 2 Sportsters that were a piece of cake. My 88 FLHTCUI was pretty easy too. This one is just stupid.

I have an intermittent gear sound every now and then from my 2000 Heritage Springer that has been described here. Can you give me an estimate of how much the labor alone would be to replace the starter at an indy shop? If it turns out it is just the jack shaft and the ring gear that needs replacing, about how much is the cost? Just a ball park figure. Thx

Thanks for the video it helped me change mine. I should have listened to the torque wrench aspect cause I broke off the bolt head to one of the top stator cover bolts. Not too big a deal as it doesn’t leak and it’s hidden by the fairing so I’ll just end up riding it until I either attempt to remove the broken bolt or just get a new stator cover and actually use a torque wrench this time

The spring is the major problem with the original setup. Even though the pad is of a similar material, the hydraulic setup lasts longer. If money is not an option, gear drive cams eliminates the issue entirely.

If your pinion has less than 0.003” runout, you can install gear drive cams with a stock grind and eliminate the tensioners altogether

Excellent job Question. When you align the cam and pinion gear are you holding your straightedge flat on the pinion sprocket and looking for a gap on cam sprocket ,or are you laying straightedge flat on both sprockets then measuring for gap? When i lay straightedge flat on pinion sprocket i have .035,but if i lay straightedge flat on both i get .009.Thats from the factory with a .110 spacer.Its like the two sprocket are not exactly flat with each other.i have .0045 runout.And if i spin the pinion sprocket 180* i always get a different reading.Hope all that makes sense
@empcycleworks
@empcycleworks 3 ай бұрын
I lay the straight edge on the gear that is the tallest and measure the gap on the other gear. Laying the straight edge on both gears will not give you the correct reading. I would try a .140 or a .150 shim. And re measure.
