- 1988 Harley Sportster project bike I just picked up. It has not ran in an unknown amount of time. The video shows me doing basic diagnostics. The next video will be a carb rebuild and hopefully that will get it going.

I just bought a '97 883 that has been neglected for 20 years. My first venture into the Harley world.
Videos like yours are a tremendous help in bringing this thing back to life. Thank you!
And I just became a subscriber from Detroit. :-D
Nice video. Love the editing and filming too. No music is the way to go. Love to see part 2
This is a very informative video series. This is necessary work to get a bike that's been sitting around back up and running properly again. I've been there -- many times. Thank you.
Awesome! Upload part 2, please. From 🇲🇽.

Thank you, good luck on your trip!

I have another one up that I just posted. Will upload more regularly from now on
I really enjoyed this! Awesome editing!
I’m picking up a 2003 hugger 883 that’s sat for many years in a shop. I’m looking forward to it running
Good luck. Usually a good fuel system clean (carb, tank, lines) will get it going. I usually put a spoon full or two of oil down the spark plug hole before turning it over just to get the cylinders wet
Open throttle full when chk cranking pressure.
Going to start rebuilding mine again soon
Have you started yet?
@@wolfscrape I worked on some things. Changing the wiring harness right now. The original was hacked around. Was a real pain to troubleshoot electric issues.
👍😎👍
That red line attached to the carb. Where does it attach to????😮
I've got an 88 883 myself. Took a couple years buts it's a Hammer 1250 with a set of V2s and 87 1100 heads with the bathtub chamber as of now. I've had it 5 years. I see you have an S&S on it. What jets you running out of curiosity? I have a .295 pilot and a .70 main I think in mine right now. Always playing with jets in it. I know this is a year old now lol. Mine don't seem to like an S&S for some reason but I am running drag pipes and blame those. It's fine after 2 grand but slow to me taking off. Love the whistling sound the tear drop air cleaner makes when ripping on it.. Can't get a mukuni to fit because of the right side petcock and a CV just a CV to me. works good but seems like the bike had more in it. saving for that exhaust still. Good video
I've sold the bike and don't remember what jets I was running. It ran perfect with the S&S though. Just as good as the HSR I ran on a different Sportster.
@@wolfscrape I ended up finding out it was a bad coil an not jets on mine yesterday go figure. Glad. I'm tired of messing with carbs lol
Great videos by the way. thank you!! I wonder if you can help me. I started having this issue today. Having problems going into neutral. And also once in first gear and I start moving the acceleration becomes rough and bike starts to chock up as if it once to shut off. This same issue continues through out the other gears. I adjusted my clutch several times recently. Will this be an issue cause by poor clutch adjustment or a fuel deliverie issue??? Kindly advice me please. Thank
I wish I could help but it could be a number of things and without seeing the bike I won’t be much help
@@wolfscrape ok. Thank you.
How’s that Harley coming along?
I’ve had part two done for a while and just haven’t gotten around to uploading it. I’ll get it up this weekend.
@@wolfscrape have an HD sportster 1988 as well.
@@Mr1972z Ok, now I am actually uploading it at this moment. Thanks a lot for watching.
