I had a 94 flhtc traded to a 1999 fltri. When i did the bikes running temp is almost un beleivable. The 94 with the 80 inch motor was much cooler is this normal? I have friends that have traded And went to 88 inch engines all with the same complant. I put synthic oil no change in temp. I added a true dual set of headers cooled down some. Is there a heat sheild avalible or is the 88 engine. A hot running motor and the new motors on all the harleys to hot for southern states in the summer.
some punk kid stole my bike, now that I got it back Im trying
to find out what wires go where on the ignition swicth because
they rip the wires to hot wire it. On the back of the swicth
there are numbers. Does anyone know what color wires goes to
what number, or how do I obtain a wiring diagram for the swicth
Thank you

OK ... I need help. I need to replace the stock between fuel tanks ignition - light switch on my FXSTS. That rotary unit with brass rod thing is not reliable. Seems that EVERY time I'm on a distance ride & needing to get somewhere, it messes up. Seems this is becoming an every month occurance. Anyway, ... I can't find a replacement in Custom Chrome or any other site I've tried. Anyone know who makes & where I can get a switch that is sealed (similar to that on my Sporty) that will fit & one that will not sacrifice the cover & looks of the original setting? Thanks. I appreciate your help. Braveheart; vertigo91198@hotmail.com
I have a 77 sporster with some sort of problem I cannot figure out. I am sending this out in order to find someone who might be able to help. I have tried so much to fix it I am at my wits end. So here goes. I have had the valves redone and since have not been able to ride at a steady rpm above 2500 since. I can ride around town just fine but the minute I hold a steady rpm above 2500 It will start to pop and spit as though it were running out of gas. I let it idle down and it recovers and is just fine for about another quarter mile at a steady rpm. I have rebuilt the carb, replaced the coil, new plugs and wires, condenser and points, the gas cap is vented, said a few choice words, and probably a few other things I can't think of right now. Has anyone had this happen?
I have a 1999 Road King Classic and the speedometer works for about the first 30 miles of every trip but then starts jumping and then finally quits all together. Any ideas why and how to fix this?

I replaced a ignition switch on a 1989 springer softtail. When disconnecting one of the wires from the switch itself I saw/heard a spark and the same when replacing it. Everything worked (lights, horn, dashlights)except the starter wouldn't when I pressed the start button. Did those sparks blow a fuse that might keep that button from working the starter? If so, where would that fuse be at so I could replace it? Thx for your time.

I have a 2004 Vulcan 2000 with 600 miles. I can start it (in nuetral with greeen light on) no problem. When it runs for 5 minutes, the temp light goes on like it is overheating. At that time, I can not shift it into nuetral, and if I shut it off, it will not start until the engine has had sufficient time to cool down. Then it allows me to shift back into nuetral with ease, and start up, until it warms up. Is there a safety precaution that prevents the shift lever from going into nuetral and stops the bike from starting until the engine cools??? Hekp? Thanks in advance.

I am confused....where does the 3 quarts of oil go in the 79 sportster? I know the oil pan below the seat does not hold that much. Does it go into the main gear/clutch housing? If so then it seems that I would want to use something different than 20-50 weight. The manual confuses me as it says something about 1.5 pints for transmission and 4 quarts total oil for engine..but I don't see any seperation between engine and transmission.
Thanks for any reply.

Hi, just bought a Yamaha Majesty scooter second-hand for a very reasonable price.

The fuel gauge float is stuck on full on my 04 softail night train. I am currently in east France with only a basic tool kit,and alone. Its a pain trying to judge how much fuel I have whilst trying to cover long distances,and contend with the alpine winter conditions.
Is it easy to fix with only basic tools and how to do it,called my dealer but got a lecture about the warranty,nice as they serviced the bike prior to departure.
Any help before I leave this house and net connection?

Hello everyone,
I just bought a used 99 ninja from a friend of mine. I rode it for about a wekk and it would not start again. I changed the battery, spark plugs and everything still not starting. Finally we broke down the fuel system and had the parts tested. All parts are in order. We are about to replace the fuel system relay, but I can't find it. Where is it located and is there anything else that we should check? I am a new rider and I am not very familiar with the working in's and out's of the cycle.
Thanks,

Bought the bike at a Harley shop 250 miles away and they told me then and still tell me they can put a electronic cruise control on it. When I ask the Harely dealers closer to me they say they have never heard of being able to do it on 2001 and older bikes. Has anyone ever done this? If so could you email me and let me know how you did it and what part #'s you may have used to do it. Thanks

Hey, I've got a leak at the starter bendix thats appears to be from too much oil being slung by the clutch basket into this region.....didn't do it last year ???

Is a vent or something plugged up here ???

To Wally with the 06 Ultra. I have one myself with all of 138 miles on it. Down for winter for new exhaust, seat, detachable tour pak, backrest, lighting, heated grips, etc. Be prepared to spend LOTS on HD parts at the dealer for the detachable rack for the tour pak ($129) 2 different kits for docking hardware ($45 for one $53 for the other) then between $200-$400 for detachable backrest/pad, then $35 for lock for rack, and $35 for lock for backrest. That doesn't begin to describe the large amount of time/labor for all the dismantling of the electrical/speaker wires, antenna, and if you have the tour pak off, you have to get an antenna relocation kit ($79) to use your radio. I did all that with my 99 Ultra, and it's a hassle unless you plan to ride a LOT of time with the tour pak off. Instead of getting a PT job to pay for all of this, do as we do, scour ebay for the parts. Lots of people, myself included, buy our parts there at 1/3 to 1/2 HD prices. Be careful who you buy from, and make sure their "feedback" indicates they are reputable. Got any more questions, or want more info, contact me any time.
just got 06 ultra and would like to be able to make tour pack detachable any tips

I bought a 1983 GPZ 750 off of ebay. The shipper told me that it started and ran before he packed it up. Since I received it Dec 24th, I have been unable to start it. I charged the battery and added gas, still won't start. I am waiting for a service manual, but until then I am missing some good riding days. Anyone can walk me through the steps it takes to start. It has carbs, and a choke. If I spray quick start fluid, where exactly do I spray it? Where is the air intake? Thanks. Any help is appreciated.

I have a '94 Dyna Glide and the foot lever (brake) is so high that my foot has to really curl up uncomfortably to stay covering the brake. Is there a way to lower it down some? I see the bolt that is easy enough to get off, but it seems things aren't really adjustible because you still have to put the cotter pin the same place as before. Am I wrong? I'll be the first to admit I'm one of the least mechanically inclined people I know, but I'm hoping that this is something someone can walk me through. Thanks for any sincere advice or help with this problem.

Hi need help i own a 1986 honda goldwing 1200 that keeps blowing the 10amp ignition fuse as soon as it starts.
Has anyone installed the aluminum spun gauges on an older than '04 Electra? If so where can I find a connector ? I am trying to install on a 2000 Electra. The '00 uses a 6 pin conection, and the new gauges use a 12 pin.
The radio on my 1990 Ultra Classic more less works when it wants to. The on-off switch doesn't always seem to want to stay on. Sometimes when I push the switch the radio plays great. Other times when I push the switch the radio just flashes on and then off again.
Has anyone else ever had this problem? What needs to be done to correct it? Is there an easy fix?
Thanks,
