I used some JB Weld and a small metal shim in the clutch handle housing to correct this. Then a small touch up with black paint. Problem resolved and unnoticeable. Oberon makes good stuff but shame on them for not shipping a few shims with the levers.

 

I used Oberon levers, surprising that they never changed the design for the newer bikes. I switched to Rick's levers on my 2020 for better operation and lever length adjustability.

 

Nope.Stock injectors. Stock oil pump, stock cam plate. No need to change these if you are still running the 117. And I have no desire to go any bigger.

Anyway. The results are 133HP, 133TQ. 120+TQ from below 3K rpm all the way up to past 5K.

S&S 475 cam. S&S air stinger A/C, 55mm manifold, precision lifers, quickee pushrods, tappet cuffs, etc...

S&S 2:1 Superstreet exhaust WITH catalytic converter.

The secret to this is not just going for parts with the highest numbers, but finding parts that work well together and somebody that really knows how to tune a bike properly on the dyno, Not just someone that has a dyno.

The bike runs great. Dyno sheets will follow.

 

Took a ride yesterday, was planning on 200 miles, but after 75 my left hand was hurting like hell. So I headed west and stopped at Boswell's Harley in Nashville and ate lunch at their grill. Looked at a used 2005 Road King. Not a scratch on it, one owner, but decided that I didn't want a bike with the 88ci motor.

Took a short ride down to the Harley dealer in Columbia, Tn today. They have a 2001 Ultra for $3900 with 88,000 miles. Looked in really nice condition except for a dent on the back of the front fender. How does that happened?

Anyway, as I was walking back to my bike, I see this shinny round thing in my front tire... Luckily I care a plug kit and a 12v air pump.

 

Went for a ride yesterday and got caught in the rain - bike got it a right state!



So this morning I gave it a good wash and changed it to the solo setup.

 

pretty bike, I like the car too...

 

Thanks
The car is a 2005 Jaguar X-Type 3.0L V6 AWD Auto with a set of Dare F5 alloy wheels (with yellow Rimblade rim protectors on)

 

How do you like them? Did it really change the clutch pull effort by much?

 

Put on cheap $30 eBay lay down license plate holder mount.

looks really good and saved a few bucks and took about 15 minutes once I figured out the bolts are 11mm on the inside of the fender.

 

I had to replace my derby cover gasket.
I got a James one for when I installed the Live To Ride gasket because it's an older derby cover that fits the wide primary on the 2018 softails.
But the gasket started weeping oil. I thought it was just some residual I didnt clean up so I didnt bother with it for a few weeks. I just wiped it up and "it's whatever."
I finally noticed the weeping oil was back after a little drop of oil dropped off the bike when I was getting off of it. got down and look a look and there was a small bit of oil that had trickled down and gathered at the bottom of the primary from the derby cover.
I cleaned it up and got home and there was a thin film of oil that had gathered on the primary below the derby cover.
So I went and checked the bolts and they felt a bit loose, so I tightened them up and put the bike away.
I went back out and the derby gasket was now leaking oil instead of just weeping it.
I have a highway 2 trip planned so I had no choice but to dash down to the dealership and grab a gasket.
Got home and there was light oil spray on my swing arm bag, drive belt, and everything else behind the primary.
Lifted the bike up, pulled the derby cover and the gasket had split at the bolt holes and was letting oil leak through.
Thankfully the oil loss was barley noticeable and I didn't have to top off the primary.
The HD gasket for that derby cover is a full sheet instead of a ring, so it captures a pocket of air behind the derby cover.
Installing the derby cover with that gasket is a ****in PAIN IN THE *** though, because it feels like the bolts are cross threading, and you HAVE to thread the top bolt first.
What a pain in the ***, no wonder they changed it.
I put some thread sealant one each of the bolts just to make sure that everything was sealed down.
Glad I noticed this before the trip.
