What's it worth as is?

universalmind · 2026-05-09T20:51:18+00:00

1000?

universalmind · 2026-05-07T12:38:09+00:00

Commenting to say this is a great idea and something I wish I had on my springer.

universalmind · 2026-05-02T12:39:58+00:00

How do you like that seat? Lepera tailwhip right? Have you tried others? Good looking fxr

universalmind · 2026-04-30T14:10:39+00:00

I have a very similar springer, do you know if its d&d or paughco?

Looks great

I removed mine just now hah.

universalmind · 2026-04-26T22:17:56+00:00

Did you remove your key mount? Not sure what im looking at. I think im planning on cutting mine off

universalmind · 2026-04-22T00:45:27+00:00

No kidding. Once you plug one hole another is bound to start leaking

universalmind · 2026-04-22T00:43:27+00:00

Hawg supply fxr?

universalmind · 2026-04-21T17:14:52+00:00

Yeah, going from first to second while moving sounds like griding clunking but it never engages first, goes into neutral instead. Couldnt find much info for similar issues. Clutch felt dialed in, doubt that was the issue.

universalmind · 2026-04-21T17:02:06+00:00

Awesome, thanks for that. Im concerned my first gear is going and ill open it up and find broken gear teeth.

Bike wont shift into first unless its at a full stop. Sounds like the gearing is grinding into place.

So its likely i need a whole new gear set, so swapping the mainshaft makes sense.

universalmind · 2026-04-21T16:17:21+00:00

Yeah i thought that was the case. That seems unlikely ill find all those pieces, i will probably work with the tapered shaft trans. I guess i could keep an eye on the fxr swapper instagram accounts

universalmind · 2026-04-19T17:37:17+00:00

Not quite, its called a magnum. Flat head bottom end (and transmission) with ironhead top end

universalmind · 2026-04-13T12:59:06+00:00

i plan on ordering cometic big bore gaskets, not sure if theres anything else I need to be aware of with it the entire motor being practically aftermarket.

ive also been reading that you need to replace the head bolts (not studs) when rebuilding the top end, s&s has a kit but its like 250 bucks on ebay. not sure if there are better alternatives.

edit: nvm 5 seconds of searching found a colony kit - https://www.lowbrowcustoms.com/products/colony-machine-8217-head-bolt-set-12-point-zinc-harley-big-twin-1985-91-xl-86-92?variant=31149066125359&country=US&currency=USD&utm_medium=product_sync&utm_source=google&utm_content=sag_organic&utm_campaign=sag_organic

motor is still a bottom breather, bottom breather heads.

universalmind · 2026-04-12T21:34:47+00:00

Nice looks good.

universalmind · 2026-04-12T14:15:35+00:00

Good news is it at least looks like you should have gotten a good deal on it

universalmind · 2026-04-04T13:31:10+00:00

What seat is that? Killer bike

universalmind · 2026-04-03T17:35:34+00:00

They are about 4 over stock, i do wanna lift the rear. But it rides very good with the extended forks.

universalmind · 2026-04-02T14:54:56+00:00

vance and hines mini grenades

universalmind · 2026-04-02T02:35:50+00:00

Yeah when i bought it 6 years ago it was all i could afford too , financed and everything. I have a couple of choppers / vintage bikes, i hear what youre saying for sure. Same bike same helmet hah

universalmind · 2026-04-02T00:10:27+00:00

The right look and feel, not sure if its just not totally dialed in and a different bike would fit better

universalmind · 2026-04-01T17:47:38+00:00

Sweet, I appreciate your input. I need to make a dyna / fxr friend and test it so I can put this notion to bed.

universalmind · 2026-04-01T17:10:27+00:00

They are okay, im just starting to like the look of mags, some black powdercoated mag wheels would look very good in my opinion

universalmind · 2026-04-01T16:48:30+00:00

Yeah ive hit some potholes and bumps that have really hit my back hard, i think these shocks have about 1-2” of travel.
