Good video. I fitted a Super E kit to my 1998 1340 Evo, which had been fitted with Andrews cams. What a difference. Its mid range pulling power is effortless !
Great to hear that buddy, their accelerator pump is three times the size of the stock Mikuni carb.. so it always has fat torque on tap.. Thank for the feedback, it really helps.. Del.
Pick up little tips from your videos that make things easier. Thanks for the videos. Very good close up views and details.
Loved the use of the screwdriver bit to improve the grip on the hex bolt head. Genius!
Cheers Mark.. that was a correctly sized alun bit, not a screw driver bit.. it was the only way i could get a tool securely in there withg such tight access..... just common sense aye mate.!
Like your attention to detail Del, I try to do the same... Happy Trails, Doug
Thanks Doug, much appreciated, always good to hear from you..
Thank you thank you for a well lit in focus vid. Been involved in mortal combat with my carb. Idling fast,running fat, mixture screw all way in. Enricher lever is hitting breather screw that holds back plate to head.
Really great video - from both sides of the camera. Brilliant.
Thanks again for a awesom vid , so relaxing to wotch !!
A fellow 'tighten it till your neck cords and veins stand out' mechanic..love it !!
I installed the same Carb on my 1993 Softail Custom way back in 1994 it wasn’t hard to do just takes a little time and patience.
I still have the bike today and a 2016 Ultra limited.
Good video and nice job with the camera!! 😎👍🍻
Thanks Alan, we're glad you enjoyed the video.
@@Moonfleet41
I also subscribed 🔔looking fwd to seeing more.
Good camera work Sir!
@@alanwhiteside410 Thank you again, and welcome aboard, we really appreciate your kind words of support.
A pleasure to watch as always
Very kind of you Sir, thank you!
Paper and pen, check! Cold beer, check! Now time to relax and enjoy the show. Great video.
Nice carb Del! Foxdawg is starting to grow into a real beauty!
Thanks Steven, appecriate your words of encouragement... glad you're lovin' it !
wow so much said I will just say ditto. great job. you are building the motorcycle community with this type of instruction and education. thank you sir.
Thank you so much Robert, you are too kind.
Awesome video as always! Can’t wait to see it finished, but the build experience is priceless! Thanks!
Thank you David, yes indeed, it's always nice to finish a bike, but the journey is just as important!
Will make a big difference,however you may need to fit a high flow petcock as I did when I fitted a one to my bike,runs ok till mid range and then starts to get fuel starvation,hope this helps.
Really? Thanks buddy... I had wondered whether Pingel would feed it better... this being a twin cam, it may have a better flow than an EVO, but I could be wrong, maybe the same tap, but I will certainly monitor it... I will feed her what she needs lol
The only thing better than getting shiny new kit is when a new Delboy vid hits the screen!!!👍🏻😊
Thanks Phil, hope you enjoy the video mate! Appreciate your kind support, D&Px
Looking forward to hearing the bike running
Thank you brother, me too, can't wait for Spring and some sunshine to ride in!
Getting a sore head trying to remember all the bits you took apart to then put back together. Glad someone has it under control 😀
Thanks Paul, there's a plan to everything!... and if it doesn't go according to plan, then just make another plan lol
Looks great, and a great mech job!
Thank you very much!
@@Moonfleet41 Currently on FoXDaWG 29, the fenders are looking AWESOME!!
love the hack with the ring spanner and small bit when I think on all the times
I wasted tryin to get out all those hard to reach bolts aaaaaaaaah great vid as always
Ha ha.. sorry mate.. simple trick aye.. "use what you have"//!
That bike is stunning... You should raffle it off once it's finished I'd buy a few numbers!
Hi Chris, great idea but this one's not for sale my friend, at least not unless something better came along, something rare and vintage, because currently, modern Harleys really don't do much for me... wouldn't swop this one for a new Harley no matter what it was!
To be fair I wouldn't part with it either Del it's going to be something special that
Clean and methodical, it’s a pleasure to watch you work
Thanks Daniel really appreciate that!
That actually looks quite an easy home upgrade. Looking forward to hearing it run. Nice work. Catch you on the weekend.
Hi Andy, it is indeed a straight forward upgrade, S&S do a fantastic job of supplying a kit that literally bolts straight on, no cutting threads, drilling, tapping, or adapting things... just assembly only... along with some outstanding instructions and a full guide on how to set them up and get the best from them!
Great job you make it look easy!
Ever think of painting the cleaner cover black???
Thanks Jimmy, the cleaner cover is a central feature and I want it to stay bright, also you rub your leg on them every day so you'd scuff it in the end!
@@Moonfleet41 Makes perfect sense.
Thanks for the reply and have a great day.
@@Moonfleet41they also come in black but those covers aren’t cheap. Or just have it powdered coated.
Can't get enough of Delboy's Vids. Absolutely addictive. Can't wait for day 23
Very nice install and no excessive talking! I like that
S&S Super E, a thing of beauty and a wonderful install video to boot. This bike gets better with every episode, which is the whole point I suppose!
Thank you Peter, that's very kind of you mate, and you are of course dead right, an S&S Super E is the stuff of legends!
what idiots keep giving these videos thumbs down? even if you dont like his choices in accessories, the content, camera work and instructions area all great
Wow Great video Del. And great job on showing us how to do it. Great tips. I am like you by laying out the parts in a OCD way. It really helps you get the parts in order. Awesome.
Thank you buddy, nothing like being organised aye? That way there's no spare parts at the end lol
Thanks for the great detail on the install, about to get one for my fatboy
Glad to help, good luck with it and have fun.
It's good you got your hands in the carbs! thank for the videos
Del your attention to detail is commendable and I’m so excited to see the finished article as this bike is going to look sic👍😁👌
Thank you Gareth, that's very kind of you... getting excited now!
Looks great on the bike Del. Gonna be a quality finished product. View you soon.
Me being from "the other side of the pond I think I can safely say "there were many fiddly bits! ! Also my wife was not happy when I rebuilt one of those CV carbs on our kitchen table in 1986 "/
Hang on a minute, isn't that what kitchen tables are for lol... seriously, yes indeed, yuo're right, a million moving parts seem to pack in to one of these!
That's a lovely looking piece of kit Del. I think you made a good choice given the other modifications will benefit from it also. Wehey!
Thanks Steven.. yes indeed, all aimed at making it a "rider" and not a poser..!
Nice one ! thank to your videos, I just done today the front brake disc-pads change on my Deluxe
Great news John, glad it helped you my friend!
Good to see you didn't have any left over washers or screws. S&S Super E, can't go wrong. Excellent.
Yes indeed my friend, there are actually a few left over bits but they were meant to be lol.. you get a range of shims to pack out the back plate of the filter from the head, and you're never gonna use them all... and a little bag of jets in case you live on top of a mountain or something and need to jet for altitude ha ha!
Awesome job Del. S&S makes great products so you will be more than pleased with the super E carb.
Certainly am Sir, looking closely at the equipment, it is the most astonishing quality... so well put together and solidly built... it's the 4 barrel Holley of the bike world aye?!
Great to watch, nice work.
Good vid Del. 👍 👍 👍
Looking forward to fitting all the paintwork.
Cheers.
Thanks Christopher, probably gonna take a couple of video to get it all fitted, it's a long, painstaking and nervous process! But I'm up for it... gonna start at the weekend!
I thought for sure, when I saw the box, you were gonna pull out a black S&S teardrop cover. Your always keeping us guessing.
Hi, nice job, interesting to see how to fit that. Looking forwards to hear it running. thanks. Gus
Thank you Gus, glad you enjoyed, won't be long before we're on the road!
Not a Harley guy but lovin the bike so far.
Im not into this type of bike mate, but, this is compulsive viewing, so easy to watch the way you explain it all, actually looking forward to seeing this bike start up, lol, #converted.....
Thanks Bazza, nothing like the respect of the un-initiated..lol!
Very relaxing, great video! That air cleaner cover is a classic... I want the same looking S&S mini teardrop air cleaner on my M8 Street Bob once I have the chance for a Stage-1.
Hi Tom, sounds like a great plan, a timeless and legendary look for a bike... ! Thanks for your support mate, Del
You are an amazing Artist sir. It's a pleasure to watch your videos. Love from India ✌️
You make things look so easy lol can't wait to c the black parts go back on
I enjoyed this session very much. The project is coming along nicely and it's a pleasure to watch you bring it together. Wonderfully well produced and edited video as usual. I recognize that you are using quality recording equipment and taking lots of time afterwards to get it right.
Thank you so much John, that is very kind of you sir, and im glad you enjoy the videos.. Its important to keep improving the videos to earn the long term trust and respect of such loyal viewers and Patrons... Take care my friend, and have a good week. Del.
With all that lard that throttle is going to be smooooth as butter hahahahaha on the home straight now
You know it buddy, can't beat a bit of beef tallow!... Thanks for your kind support...
Your meticulous approach has been rewarded by a beautiful install, Del. Great filming and editing too. Can't wait to hear it run 👍
Thanks Keith, it's a real joy to work on and legendary kit!
Hi Del & Penny.
Glad you've gone for S&S Suer E.
Put one on my 1200 XL, What a difference, already done a stage II with Andrews cams and S&S lifters and S&S quickee pushrods.
No more farting or hesitations.
Want a big twin now.
Hi Ross, good to hear from you mate, sounds like you've got the bug, there's nothing like a big twin to haul you up the road, but at the same time, I imagine your Sportster could lose one round the bendy's, so it's always a balance aye! Ride safe!
Beautiful! Now that job looked fun to do ;)
Yes indeed Jon, it was a wonderful day!
Nicely done Del, bet you can’t wait to try it out on the road mate 👍🏻
Too right buddy, enjoying every minute .
Love it . I cant wait to see the finished bike and the first ride. Well done Mate.
A 1 euro coin fits perfectly into the choke knob and it matches the brass pieces on the carb.
Them grip are sooo much better also🤘
Hi buddy, these S&S carbs don't have a choke in the same way that the CVs do.. if you look at the air filter, there's a little lever on top of it that lifts up, and they refer to that as the 'enricher' mechanism, and it doesn't choke off the air in the normal way, it temporarily enriches the mixture hence the name... that's why I deleted the original choke knob completely.
But I love the kind of thing you suggested, coins and little mascots and things looks cool...as long as it's subtle and that, indeed, would be !
Nice job 👍👍👍😎😎😎
Thanks mate 👍
Great job del looks great
By the way love your work as in what you do on bikes and the way you explain things so well and love how you keep making videos with your wife thank you both for sharinv your knowledge with us
Thanks you again Chris.. most welcome buddy.
Great upgrade! I really enjoy watching you work!
Thank you Sir, twas a great day!
Yesh!! Very nice indeed Del. Nothing better than fitting some new shiney parts. Gonna look sweet with the blacks back on. Cool Quote at the end!! Awrabesht to you both from me & the clan bro. 😉💙🤘
Hi Alan, thank you for your kind words... Johnny passed on your best wishes to us all on Sunday, mate if you lived here we'd always be out lol... Love and hugs to all, D&Pxx
So looking forward to it going back together again.
Really great job, looks awesome! It's becoming a mint Dyna Del, I can't wait to see what happens with a good lot of black back on the bike again and dying to see what happens with the wrap/paintwork!
Thanks buddy, that's very kind, started on the black this week, should be the next couple of videos, it's looking awesome!
Love it! My learning and relaxing time of the week. Thanks Del and Penny! All the best to you / KB
Thank you Sir, glad you enjoy! D&Px
Nice job Del that's going to make a real difference to performance!
Sure is mate, can't wait to get out and play!
You made that look very easy...👍👏🏼👌🏼
This is very satisfying to watch ✌
Very relaxing to watch
Great install Del. S & S carb is a great bit of kit, she's looking good mate. Penny and you have a great week. Cheers
Thank you Buddy, yes indeed, top draw kit aye.. Enjoy your week and keep in touch.. D&Px
That carb looks awesome Del and high quality , have not forgot about coming down just so busy at work . Chat soon. Love the torque driver and TBar
Aha Tony, hoped you would appreciate that... gonna hold you to that visit, really looking forward to it mate! Just give us a heads up when and we'll make a plan! Have a great week, D&Px
Not long fitted an S&S teardrop airfilter kit to my Forty Eight Del i reckon I'm as pleased with mine as you are with yours pal 👍
Great video again cant wait to see it go back together now and also hear it fire up 👌
Hi Dave, iconic styling aye?!... and good choice, classic lines you'll never regret!
@@Moonfleet41 thats the truth pal 👍
Another excellent video, very educational for a novice like me, between you, TMF and Dr Vstrom you chaps are costing me a fortune👍 ps I can't wait to see the Harley on the road!
Thanks Fraser... appreciate your support, you know it's only things you want lol!
Del, with the carb upgrade did you consider changing the petrol delivery hose? Old rubber hoses are prone to cracking especially with the increasing ethanol content in fuel. R9 petrol hose is the minimum that should be installed. Also, I note you have jubilee style hose clips on the petrol delivery pipe, these should be changed for proper petrol pipe hose clips as the jubilee worm type can cut into the rubber pipe, the consequences of which can be disastrous.
1:09 , New hose and heat sleeve supplied with the kit..!
That was very satisfying to watch. :) I guess it's not quite that easy to replace 4 carbs and get them all synchronised. :) This is going to be one smooooooth bike purring along. Should be interesting to hear it start up, even without all the adjustments done. Best wishes!
Hi Patricia, yes indeed, im really looking forward to getting it fired up.. but a fair few things to do still yet.. ! have a good week.. D&Px.
Use a cheap Carb Stick or Carb Gauges to tune multiple carbs.
If using a Carb Stick just be careful not to go above idle or you will suck the mercury fluid from the Carb Stick down into your carb not a good thing but the stick does a good job! They make metal extension tubes that mount to your carbs usually comes with two sizes two long tubes for the inside carbs and two short tubes for the outside carbs then hook up your rubber hoses from your Stick or Gauges.
Looks good fella
Cheers John, good to hear from you mate!
Oh i had a huge essay but sod that !
Bloody nice carb install 👍🏻👍🏻☮☮❤❤
Nuff said aye brother..!
You make everything look so easy and I feel like I can do anything on a bike but I know thats not the case:)
Thank you so much my friend, we appreciate your faith, and you can do anything if you just apply yourself and give it a go!
Nice job del.cant wait for the black work to go on..
Thing of beauty, shame it's hidden by the air filter! Look forward to the tune up vid. Cheers Del!
Thank you buddy, I agree with you, the carb itself is a thing of beauty, but then if it's gonna have to hide behind anything, a classic dimple teardrop is the one and only!
Nice carb Del. Loving the back to basics no music just work noise vibe in this video.
Keep up the good work. I just wish I could afford to buy her off you when you're done.
TTFN
Thanks Tom, that's very kind of you, this one's gonna be a keeper, I don't think I could ever replace it, not just he parts I've invested in, but the rare model itself is quite unique.. thanks to Penny for finding it for sale in a place I wouldn't have looked.. was a lucky day!
Can’t wait to hear this cat ! Super video ....hooked !
Kind regards.
Thanks Beans, appreciate your support... glad you're enjoying it!
thanks for the video
Hey man, great video. From what I understand the kit comes fitted with a .028 intermediate and a .066 main. It comes with one extra intermediate jet and two extra main jets. Do you happen to remember what it came with? Can’t find this info anywhere and s&s has given me a different answer every time I’ve asked them directly.
Picked up a great little tip for the Allen heads Del. Cheers
Sure thing Craig, only works with 1/4" allen screw heads, but then you can use any torx head or allen bit and a 1/4 A/F ring spanner!
They are the grips I had on my iron, remember when I asked you about a video, which helped me, but you made it look so easy. They do look good, any chance of parting with the fat Harley ones to replace my fat chrome and leather ones, or do you keep just in case. I don’t mean for nothing obviously I would pay. Loving this project. Love the Harley’s.
Hi Ian, great to hear from you again... sadly, these ones have been tagged already, had they not been, you'd have been welcome to them mate, sorry about that. These grips I now have a my favourite shape and feel and I wouldn't use anything else, I don't have small hands, I just find fat grips a bit clumsy specially with gloves on!... Hope you're keeping well mate, good to hear from you any time, D&Px
@@Moonfleet41 no worries. I was slow on the uptake. Hope you and penny are well too. Look forward to next video.
So excited to see this finished :D
Hint - Loctite the 3 x screws @ 14:05 - 14:21. If the air cleaner backplate screws come loose they risk being sucked in the carb.
Hi buddy, those particular three screws come with a per-impregnanted cured threadlock already on the threads, so it looks like they've already thought of that one!... But good sound advice though mate
Wow, I really enjoyed that and learned so much. Thanks again Dell. Yours aye, Alan
Cheers Alan, glad you enjoyed mate... it was a fun day!
Quick question, did you have to order longer throttle cables to get it to fit right? I'm running into a problem with the length on my stock cables. Just trying to find answers.
I changed the bars so definitely ordered shorter cables, but try re-routing first before you spend out money you don't need to.
Great Video She is going to Look Fab Great Job Del 👏👏👌🏻👍
Thanks Chris, looking forward to getting mobile!
Great job buddy, you made a difficult job look really easy, hate messing with carbs, regards Stu 🤘🤘
Tiz a wizard's art Sir, but at the same time, it's stone age technology, so don't fear it... knowledge is power buddy!
Very nice jobb !!! Big like !!!
Wow those S&S carbs and air cleaners sure are sexy! You made that install look easy, Del... and sounds like you’ve got a bit of a man-cold. Hope you’re feeling better! (Just got home after 30 hours of travel... snow in the forecast in 5 hours time. Nice welcome home, right?) 🏍👍🏍
Hi Gary, oh my god, you globetrotters you lol and what a difference in climate! Wouldn't it be great if we were all successful enough to live our lives chasing the sun?!!... and yes indeed, an S&S Super E carb and dimple filter is a 44 Magnum, a Fender Strat, a Rolex Oyster, and a Levi 501 of the carb world lol Have a great week at home, and keep warm! D&Px
Moonfleet41 yessir-!
great video very well made!!!
Thank you David, appreciate that!
Awesome
Hi Paul, why thank you most kindly Sir!
well done nice job
What's a beauty!!!!!
Awesome video Delboy ride safe
You too Kris, have a good week mate!
I like the way u explain things to detail, Thanks Bro...
Thank you Sir, you're most kind, glad we're getting it right!
@@Moonfleet41 Keep up the good work, my friend.....
I'm an Ollie too!
looks like a quality piece of kit there sir , would have a closer look into the jetting , as stock it will only be a very rough guesstimate to get it running on a stockish motor at a guess
No, not at all mate, S&S have about 30yrs heritage with these carbs and they now send them out with rideable base settings, the only variation is your altitude and temperature which they can't obviously factor in, the main thing to set up is the accelerator pump as it's a matter of taste, how much of a surge of fuel you want, but mixture and idle speed at advised settings should run normally (so they say lol)
all good then
Meticulousness
It's the word for this episode my friend 🤓👍
Exelent very very exelent 😉
Pending like always
Best wishes
See on next one ✌️🤓
Hi David, Thank you as ever for your kind support my friend, have a great weekend and take care.. D&Px
@@Moonfleet41 equally my friend 🤓👍
And waiting the next episode
See you!!
