Inside outside micrometer, or just micrometer, or calipers, verniers, vernier caliper are all used interchangeably in every industrial setting I've ever seen. Google micrometer, inside outside, Mike's pop up first, then the traditional outside mikes your talking about.

Glad I could help!

I got all of the sight glass stuff off of McMaster-Carr website.

Thank you!

You're very welcome! Anytime!

They definitely do top notch work. And they have packages for twin cams. That might be on my short list, my 96ci blackline has been needing some love lately. And in my opinion the pricing is very fair!

I want to leave my '02 Super Glide 88 cu in. Did a S&S 509 complete cam chest on it and really woke it up. Figured some head work wouldn't hurt.

Give them a call! The owner, Dan has always been available every time I've called. I'm sure more airflow will take that 89ci right up!

Much appreciated!

You can add a mechanical advance fairly easily. It should say in the instructions included with the ignition the exact part numbers you need if I remember correctly. If you haven't purchased the ignition yet I believe you can get a pdf of the instructions from dynas website, or even jp cycles if you look the ignition up.

Thanks for the response, I appreciate it.

My test light is a 1056 brake light bulb with some speaker wire taped to it, lol. Yours is probably led, it will light up asap, which is fine. Just rotate until the light changes.

Thanks! All of the engine work videos will start dropping in the next week or so, then it's time to put it all together!

Heck yeah! Love hearing that. Thank you!

Not really. The whole head is aluminum, and both valves are steel. They will heat soak similarly.

It might be!

@@DWchopshop ahaha. A suzuki boulevard 650? I had 1 and always thought it would make an amazing bobber. But it had low miles and I sold it for a pretty penny

@@1badombre82 No, this is a 92 Harley sportster 883. I've had a few boulevards in the past. Mine have all been 1100 (I think) and I definitely enjoy them. The hard part about making them q proper bobber or chopper is the shaft drive. That makes it really hard to change frame angles.

It's on and powder coated now! Everything will start going back together for the final time next week.

I appreciate that!

Customer wanted to keep the bike grungy. Not much I can do about that.

Much appreciated!

Any time!

Thats it man. The relay keeps the lower amperage systems from getting too hot. Modern electronics you can find these relays about the size of an ice cube or even bult into the keyed ignition.

@@DWchopshop thanks man

I definitely prefer fire ring. But MLS has its perks. I've never used MLS on an old bike before and wanted to give it a shot.

@@DWchopshop now I've watched all five episodes.. has the MLS gasket held up..

Sorry! Just saw this comment. I'm happy with the MLS. It's held up just fine, only a few hundred miles on the bike.

Life savers when you need em.

@@DWchopshop well I think I'm going to order a 716 that's what the lower judge the casebolt is. Half inch for the head to The jug boat on mine. Just in case I need it

Just a semi cheap micrometer.

Thank you!

Your welcome! Love your comments. I'll be sure to follow along on your channel! Keep me updated and let me know if you need anything!

@@DWchopshop will do 🏍️🖖👍👋

It's really hard to answer wiring questions without seeing what's going on, but the only thing I can see going on here would be clipping the light to the wrong side of the coil. One side gets 12 volts all the time, the other side gets 12 volts when it fires. The side with a constant 12v has a wire coming from the ignition switch (key)

@@DWchopshop talked to Dynatek. The ignition was bad.

Much appreciated!

I have, these don't shrink enough in a household freezer in my experience. You could purchase some dry ice and they would drop in, but it's a bearing race, not the bearing it's self. As long as you don't damage the tapered surface and it seats evenly it will be fine.

I was able to talk the guy that owns this bike into letting me rewire it.

I've never had an issue with a primary chain or belt on stock power applications. Both of my shovelheads still have the original primary chains, I think. I've had to replace the pensioners, but that's about it. This specific sportster has 72,000 miles on it. If you're not a big harley guy thou, I do have a yamaha and a suzuki project coming up eventually. Finish this sporty, then an ironhead, and I'll get into the jap stuff.

Primary chain tensioner was a tad tight.

Lmao! No, im the little guy now!!!!! This is an older video. I'm down about 100 pounds.

I'll let you know. The tank holds water just fine. There is no liner in it yet. Waiting for engine parts to come back from machining brfore slapping it all together. And thank you!

@@DWchopshop I didn't think it wasn't gonna work, but you never know till you try. I read an interveiw with Keith Ball from Easyrider magazine years ago who built a lot of custom bikes. He said he could spend 3 days on a project just to toss it in the trash when done. I know the feeling. It comes with the territory. As a friend of mine likes to say, "Welcome to the world of custom motorcycles". Thanks for the reply.

Right! I wasn't sure either but there's only one way to find out. I've done the same thing on a bigger level in industrial situations, didn't see why it wouldn't work on a small tank! And I think it looks a lot better than a plastic tube. Who knows, it might not be a long term thing though. And I agreewith Mr. Ball and your friend, lol. It's hard to stand out in the motorcycle world these days. For every one cool original idea that works there's 15 that got junked!!

@@DWchopshop It's hard to find people that even work on their own bike anymore let alone building them. I thought it was a dying art. It's refreshing to see other people doing it. I started doing it because I was too poor/cheap to buy a nice running motorcycle. It turned into a nice hobby. I'd recommend it to anybody. One thing it taught me is persistance & determination to finish what you start.

We're did you say u bought those at

When something like that happens to be I always start with the last thing it ouched. I would dig into the starter clutch again, check the forks like you mentioned. But your symptoms are similar to what a failing or stuck solenoid might be. could also be worth it to check your handlebar switch to make sure its not sticking.

@@DWchopshopafter tearing it apart and looking at everything I swapped out the starter solenoid with a new Accel one and so far it seems to fix the issue I was having, I also swapped out my Drag Specialities AGM battery too even though it was testing good, it was 8 years old and I figured it was time, the handjebar switch and starter clutch I left alone, sucks I only got 2 years and about. 2,000 miles out if the solenoid that was in there

POCKET SAND!!

That engine is currently at hammer performance getting gone through. I wasn't worried about something getting in the intake when the heads are getting ported.

It's really important to make sure you have a decent working surface. Lmao Also, my camera work and video editing has improved tenfold since this video.

I don't care, I'm subscribed and watching them all from now on. I've been watching shovelhead videos from here in the shit uk where the only good thing is my old shovel. Keep shit funny coz that's where it's at... Great work in its original form.. nearly choked and spat my tea all over my screen because of you.

@@DrVlok im glad you enjoyed it! Videos are sparse at the moment. I have a lot of parts out getting work done, heads ported and polished, Triple trees getting shaves, and so on. I will get back to weekly posts once I start getting parts back.

On a stock bike, your right, i would measure axle center to a point on the swing arm (some bikes have marks on them already). The bolts with the TC bros hard tail are the same length.

No problem! I'll apologize in advance that these videos are long and mostly unedited. Skip through, find what you need. This was at the start of my video editing journey. Ask any questions.
