Very good news. I've gotta keep this thing rolling because a new bike or a crate engine just ain't in the cards right now.

At the very least i'll be getting new torringtons..... might as well get that Wood +4* gear while i'm in there. Fueling race lifters and a high flow oil pump couldn't hurt either. My wife is gonna be pissed! Thank god July shutdown is right around the corner.

Default Clean Your IAC Vacuum Inlet

Discovered this 1/4 inch hole in the intake, on the inside, under the top. It feeds air into the IAC motor. When cleaning out your intake, don't forget this vital hole, because it can have a great effect on how your bike runs. Rub your finger on the inside of the intake until you find it and shoot some throttle-body cleaner in there when you're cleaning out your throttle body.

They do nice work, including two-tone stuff. And there are always some interesting pieces waiting to be picked up...


I shot a similar color, except dark blue midnight metallic on wheels / air cleaner cover / controls / horn cover and many other odds and ends, I love it.

Haven't done much to my Dyna other than ride it this season, which I admit is kind of nice. I've got a few things planned for the future, but they'll have to wait. Too many other projects...

Not to say I haven't been busy in the garage working on a Harley. I'm putting together a 2016 Softail Deluxe to be sold. I've always liked these bikes, and when I'm done I'll get the opportunity to put at least a few shakedown miles on it before I sell it. Don't think there's a chance in hell my Dyna's going away to be replaced by a Softail, just to be clear.

The bike was in an accident, and partially disassembled when it made its way into my garage. Here's what it looks like now.



Thread in the Softail forum on how I ended up with the project and future updates:

Nothing wrong with owning them both. Each has it good qualities. I do like the paint scheme, and Deluxe seats are nice. tp

I wouldn't mind owning a Softail, but it would be an Evo Springer. This one isn't titled in my name, and will be put up for sale as soon as it's done.
