@@DKCustomProducts I like the instant information at the touch of a button. if it lasts a year or two, I will buy another one when this one craps out. if not, I will consider the Jes analog setup.
I’ve been using that oil dipstick for 2 years now. Great purchase & a must have. I’m surprised that I don’t see other Harley Riders in TX with them. It just frustrates the dealership if they do your oil change. They most likely won’t reinsert it right. So double check.
I am not sure it has the ability to initialize it for the first time after you install it. I do know that it has the ability to activate it/deactivate it once it is installed.
@@toddgittins5692 I have a 2006 Street Bob and 2021 Street Glide Special. The biggest issue I had with the TC was the IPB. But it was basically when the service manual said it was time to be replaced. When I was finally able to buy a new bike and get the Street Glide I was thinking a new bike would be worry free.

@@jackpals2026 Yep. Do you think those are going to just stay riders edge bikes? Aren’t those just little Chinese made Benellis with a very expensive HD tank badge?
Here is my question, what are you going to sell when the below happens? Harley-Davidson is planning to phase out motorcycles powered by its storied internal combustion engines, and will slowly but surely transform into an all-electric brand. Harley CEO Jochen Zeitz tells Dezeen that after 120 years of being famous for its big gas-powered models, electrification is the logical next step. That is, if the company plans on sticking around for another 120 years.
We reckon that we will still be riding our traditional V-Twin Harley's, and that we will continue modifying them to enhance our own riding experiences...that is how all our current parts were developed, and we don't see that stopping, even if HD is no longer selling them. There are millions of them out there. IF, and this is a big IF, we end up getting an electric powered bikes, we probably will be modifying those too. Here's a video we did on the subject- ruclips.net/video/ArMNyQiRcpQ/видео.html
@@DKCustomProducts Thank You for the link. Very good video and information. Time will tell what may happen as new laws are being made all the time. Here is one that will be in a few more states than in California. California will ban sales of new gas-powered cars by 2035, but the conversion to battery-powered vehicles poses numerous unresolved issues. California made it official last week - the state will ban sales of gasoline-powered new cars after 2035. Gov. California plans to ban sales of new gas cars by 2035, requiring all vehicles to be electric or hydrogen powered. Seventeen states have vehicle emission standards tied to rules established in California. Now, they're weighing whether or not to follow a similar mandate. New York, Washington and more are expected to adopt California's ban. Colorado and Pennsylvania are among those that probably won't.
Yes. Step by Step can be seen at this link, and I will also paste it below. www.dkcustomproducts.com/gas-tank-lift-kits-c4.htm 1. With bike on kickstand, take the bolt out of the front of your tank. 2. Loosen (do not remove) the bolt(s) at the rear of your tank. 3. Turn your handlebars all the way to the left and raise the tank up your desired lift height to check for clearance issues. 4. Turn your handlebars all the way to the right and raise the tank up your desired lift height to check for clearance issues. Be careful when lifting your tank, you do not want to hit against something (forks, handlebars, trees, blinkers, etc.) when checking for clearance.
Hi Mike, Answering emails and calls are top priority for us. Most are answered within a couple of hours, no more than 1 business day., So, when I saw your comment I immediately went to our email to see if I could find emails from or to you. This year we answered emails from you on: Feb 16 Feb. 2 Jan 26 Jan 11 I think you should check your other folders in your email, because 2 of those emails were answering your question about the Tank Lift Kits for your bike. www.dkcustomproducts.com/touring-model-tank-lift-kit-dk-trg-tlk.htm
If you say you sent replies I believe you. I have always gotten answers on questions but when I asked about raising the tank info I never saw anything and never checked my spam folder because your emails always came thru in my inbox just fine.
I have the inch-and-a-half in the front and a half inch in the rear and could not be happier with the results
Good deal, thanks for the comment and your business, we appreciate it. 👍😎👍
The tank lift will also help in installing a oil pressure gauge
Thanks for commenting! Good insight! 😎
I installed the HD oil temp dipstick... so far, it is working well. I am also getting ready to install the oil cooler fan.
Yeah, good to hear. I like em too, until they don't work. Fortunately they are more reliable than they used to be.
@@DKCustomProducts I like the instant information at the touch of a button. if it lasts a year or two, I will buy another one when this one craps out. if not, I will consider the Jes analog setup.
Yeah, I like those features of the digital dipstick also! 👍
Love learning more about you guys and the company!
Thanks man, appreciate the comment. 👍
Good info as usual from yall @ D K Customs. Thank you for all your hard work and facts
Thanks Jack, appreciate your good words and all the help you are to the Harley community. 👍
👍
Thanks! 👍

They are to busy over tightening the oil filter, to get the dipstick in correctly. Gotta have their priorities.
😂😂😂😂😂
Good deal, knowledge is power! 👍
Good job guys thank you for the great information!!!
Thank you, glad you found it useful. 👍
Enjoyed this video….. I also have a question….. Does the Power Vision have the ability to turn on or enable the HD accessory oil cooler fan?
I am not sure it has the ability to initialize it for the first time after you install it. I do know that it has the ability to activate it/deactivate it once it is installed.
When will someone make an oil temp dip stick for baggers? It must be possible.
I use a long HVAC thermometer. Of course, gotta do it when you get home & pull your stock dipstick.
@@toddgittins5692 I'd like to keep an eye on it during day-long summertime rides.
@@jackpals2026 I run the A1 vented dipstick, anyway. So, I'm stuck doing the way I do.
Even a set up like the Dakota Digital gauges use with the drain plug. Just run to a little temp gauge.
They have been around for decades for baggers. HD has a digital one and JesCustoms has analog temp dipsticks. We show photos of both in the video.
Are you still going to have a mono shock for the Sport Glide?
It is in the very early stages of development. If we can come up with a better shock than is already available, we will. 👍😎👍
Hopefully those little Chinese kids will be more consistent when they start build the bikes.
I wish they could get an oil pump right, the 1st time. Early Twin Cams & early M8s, were both junk.
They already do: HDs 350&500cc bikes.

Queston when checking for tank clearance, do you raise just the front?
Yes.

1. With bike on kickstand, take the bolt out of the front of your tank.

3. Turn your handlebars all the way to the left and raise the tank up your desired lift height to check for clearance issues.
