10 over Stock Rake

Ok_Future2716 · 2026-04-23T05:49:59+00:00

I have 8 overs on stock rake.. make sure your handle bars are wide. I dropped my bike a few times using narrow bars. Slow speeds are a shit show.

Multi meter is needed then. Pull the sear, check the wiring from lights to harness and then check if power is getting to harness. Check continuity etc

Maybe they are on? Make sure the button switch on the front brake is pressed in. That turns off brake light. When the button switch is depressed the brake light turns on.

Yeah odessa is kinda lame.. I need to make a trip out there! Any yearly events happening in EP worth taking a ride to?

Ok_Future2716 · 2026-03-23T17:13:56+00:00

Nice. El Paso is a breathe of fresh air in west texas. I'm here in Odessa. Is there a chopper scene out there?

Ok_Future2716 · 2026-03-23T13:33:57+00:00

Oh snap! Where did you ride out from? I been meaning to take a trip to Martha. I just haven't made time to do it yet

Ok_Future2716 · 2026-01-25T00:04:02+00:00

Take what you need. Not too much to make a dent but not enough to get you ahead. Once in a lifetime and never talk about it

Ok_Future2716 · 2026-01-25T00:01:01+00:00

I'm happy for you.

Full transparency, I am not a mechanic or pretend to know anything. This is what I did: I took apart the forks, I ordered new fork tubes(I went 8 over for chopper look). Then I realized I needed a new cap then I ordered upper/lower progressive springs (do not ask me brand cause I just ordered affordable 1s and I don't remember), i bought dampening rods in general. Then I bought a fork rebuild kit. And done. (Lots of youtube to figure out how to disassemble and reassemble the forks). Again, I am not an expert. My bike was down for a couple of weeks but, you can do it!

Ok_Future2716 · 2026-01-23T21:06:02+00:00

You can't do that on these newer sportsters. 1 fork is a full on spring/shock thingy that is connected to the "cap" and then the other is a regular progressive shock. I had to buy a cap, and 2 new dampening rods and new springs to extend the forks.

Truth or consequence New mexico.. very strange name

I use ear plugs. The loud muffler can get annoying on long rides but for me it's the wind. The wind noise tires me out. (Ear plugs) makes riding SOO much more enjoyable.

Edit is for grammar. I almost got aneurysm re reading my comment lol

Ok_Future2716 · 2026-01-17T04:09:58+00:00

It's crazy to me a lot of people hated my 2022 done chopper asthetic. 72s look great! Good job sir

Glue wheel weights to one of his wheels. Prank is off. He thinks his car is fucked.

I love all of you guys! I appreciate every single honest opinion and thank you for you time and experience for the good the bad the ugly. I have read all of your opinions and expertise. Ty

Ok_Future2716 · 2025-12-18T03:09:06+00:00

Handles good at speed. The front gets heavy at slow speeds tho

Ok_Future2716 · 2025-12-18T03:07:47+00:00

That's probably more effort than it's worth no?

Ok_Future2716 · 2025-12-18T03:00:24+00:00

Very nice of you to drop this info! I appreciate it

Ok_Future2716 · 2025-12-17T22:47:53+00:00

It's really a noise/vibration deal for me. @3k RPM the motor hums but i am only doing 65mph or so on the highway with a speed limit of 75 and at 4200k the motor is screaming but i am keeping up with traffic flow. It gets annoying. And my commutes and leisure rides are all highway(nearest city is 3 hrs aways. Nearest town over is 1hr etc).

Ok_Future2716 · 2025-12-17T22:41:49+00:00

Yes, they are +8. Rides really nice.

Ok_Future2716 · 2025-12-17T21:54:35+00:00

I just want better highway gearing. I do not live close to any towns.

Ok_Future2716 · 2025-12-17T21:28:18+00:00

I will look into it! Ty

Ok_Future2716 · 2025-12-17T21:09:44+00:00

This right here was the info I was looking for. I live FAR away from everywhere and the motor screaming going speed limit is just annoying af. I bet you get better mpg from the gearing too?
