The $1 Harley
#132
So, yesterday I spent an hour at te parts counter at the local HD shop (uke's hd in Kenosha). I went through a laundry list of small fiddly parts I needed. They said they had everything on my list when I called. By the time I left the shop, I was carrying ONE fork reflector. 1. It was supposed to be a pack of 2 but someone opened the pack. Looks like everything is special order. It didn't cost any more, but I could have done all that over the phone.

I use dropbox.com you can store and share stuff from there. It can back up your phone pics too if you want it to.

Tech tip and please heed this one it's critical for that bike. The rear pipe broke because it wasn't mounted up and supported well enough , aside from breaking like that they tend to either strip out the bolt hole going into the heads or worse case actually chip off a part of the flange. Repaired more than I care to remember .
Whatever pipes you use please make sure the rear of them are well supported together and tied into the rubber mounting bushing. FXR's will spit one in heartbeat if they aren't done right.

Oh they will work just make sure the are mounted up solidify & straight. Shovelheads will give you fits with pipes if they aren't and FXR's being rubber mounted and bouncing around in the frames take a little more care getting them right.
