A wonderful old Shovelhead! There's nothing else quite like it, and just look at the size of those balloon tyres! she's looking really sweet! Well done! Take care, all, and be SAFE!
The catch phrase of, "this ain't for everybody " is completely brought to light when you see the shot of his hands, the grease, chapped and somewhat busted look is pretty much a high indicator of someone who is truly involved in getting something fixed !! Really do wish you would consider doing your own builds / tech scenes as well. Ride safe, be safe, and don't forget to toss the cat next door a treat to calm his nerves . Cheers. Guy Speight
@@dho.onthesteel Well, I totally understand and I also respect your privacy , but mostly wanted to give you a big shout out and respect from one of the "older" busted knuckle crew. And just so you know, I'm still learning as I go. Guy Speight
Dennis should definitely have a RUclips channel. His knowledge of Shovelhead 's is valuable information to budding wrenches. Also he Explains calmly and to the point without Drama. From East Coast Canada 😈
Good job. That heavy grease on the tap to catch tiny shavings is a trick we use at our shop too. The last thing you want are those little shavings floating around in there. The bike came out nice. Smart move too; installing that skid plate.
I can't wait to see the new Sporty done. The shovelhead would need so much work to take it where it should be. I would change the front forks and the front wheel and tire for a slim 26" tire. And the back wheel with a wheel with the sprocket. And I would clean it really nice and make it really super slick.
Repop stuff don't always fit right.. what year is the shovel.. slab side is pretty cool. 16 500 tires look pretty good probably handles nice as well. If the place for a ride control is still there put one on the springer, it will keep it from hopping on turns or rutted roads.. cycle electric 12 volt genny is nice. U might like a ride control, its old school but helps put a better ride for the front end
As someone trying to get into bike building and fabricating, more detail with the builds would be great. That being said, everything on your channel is super helpful and inspiring, keep it up!
Hello! Very good video, I wanted to tell you that if you could put Spanish subtitles on your videos, since there will be many fans of your videos and your channel who are Spanish and since they don't have subtitles they don't know what the video is about. Help us enjoy its great content. Thank you so much for everything. A hug.
Man I like these Videos and I love this Shovelhead. Dennis should have his own RUclips Channel. I want to see both getting Done Of course I Love the Shovel.
Shovelhead first man, it was tucked away for way too long. It has the nr 1 priority to get done first😅 And also Dennis should be on the channel more, his insane knowledge for the shovels/ harley's is an absolute win for the channel man.
Wow, that's a great video. It's a really nice customized bike. I'm glad to be a friend of your great channel. Happy New Year. Always stay healthy. 👍👍👍🤝🤝🤝🤙👌💯
I will always say the hell with the sporty and finish the shovel first, as far as Nostalgic classics go you cannot compare a sporty to a Shovelhead, the Shovelhead is just the perfect Bobber or Chopper period, I would take the Shovelhead any day over a sporty!!!
I love to just look at that bike. It's like looking at a Charlie Russel painting for me LOL. Do you intend to put any springs on the solo seat or rear end at all?
Beautiful bike. Concerns, is that a oil filter sitting on top of the exhaust? If so I would think on long trips it would heat up and thin out the oil?? Nice repairs and upgrades. Thanks
Thats like asking witch of your children do you want to do well at school 😂 I'd say finish the Sporty First .. thats gona be more of an everyday driver. And keep the Shovel for those special days... A bit like not eating to much dinner so you can have desert... 👍
I wish you’d shown that skid plate install- as simple as it is I’m apparently missing something on mine! I have a cone shovel with an aftermarket frame so I don’t have any rear holes. Is that normal? Does it sit on top of the frame at the rear or mount underneath?
On an OEM frame there is a flat piece with mounting holes for the skid plate. It’s not the rear motor mounts. It doesn’t exist on my Paughco frame either.
Are your pipes 2in just curious shovels like 13/4 long pipes unless its a big inch build back pressure helps power and flat spots I've owned several anyway just my own opinion dig your channel be safe and greetings from Oregon
I feel like a junkie waiting on your shovel build videos lmao
Shovel done first... and Dennis should have his own series of builds too.
The shit on the tire had me dying lmao😂
Saw this comment as soon as he said “aww shit!” And it made it ten time’s funnier lmao

Thanks. I’m just a self taught garage mechanic so I don’t feel comfortable giving out technical advice. Still have a lot to learn.

Work on both bikes. Waiting for parts on one? Work on the other.

Good job.

The bike came out nice.
Smart move too; installing that skid plate.
Nerve wracking process. 🤞🏽 I think I caught them all.

The shovelhead is one sweet piece of machinery...nice vid btw keep them coming😁✌

shoutout the cat at 2:38
Was that a cat or a fox?
Shovelhead first man, it was tucked away for way too long. It has the nr 1 priority to get done first😅
And also Dennis should be on the channel more, his insane knowledge for the shovels/ harley's is an absolute win for the channel man.
Wow, that's a great video.
It's a really nice customized bike.

who the hell put a thumbs down? you need your ass kicked...lol Great Job Dennis!
Love the front end, love the tires, but is it comfortable to ride? I'm short and my back hurt just watching.
Stainless helicoils we use for tripped threads in alloy cases
May do that when it’s time to split the cases for a rebuild. I’ve seen people stick a cork in there after stripping the threads.
bro i just want more vids from you guys i dont even care wich one's done first lol
Love the wheel and fork set up. What size fork and wheel sizes are you running?
Keep a eye on intake clamps, they will loosen.
Shovel first !
What gas tank? Do you have video of how you mounted it?
I wish you’d shown that skid plate install- as simple as it is I’m apparently missing something on mine! I have a cone shovel with an aftermarket frame so I don’t have any rear holes. Is that normal? Does it sit on top of the frame at the rear or mount underneath?

Hey you got a 1970 Shovelhead I'd love to put those tires on it what size are they if you don't mind. Any information would be helpful thank you
I’m Shovelhead biased.
🤙🏼😎🤙🏼
What make, model and size is the springer front end?
Are your pipes 2in just curious shovels like 13/4 long pipes unless its a big inch build back pressure helps power and flat spots I've owned several anyway just my own opinion dig your channel be safe and greetings from Oregon
I agree, 1.75 is best for these.
Sporty hardtailing next please !!!!!
Esta hermosa buen video saludos👍👍👍🤘🤘🤘😍😍😍
good night, what is the size of the rim and tires?
Nice build tho
Definitely the Shovel that bike is Bad A** , you did a good job Dennis. my Harley needs better gas mileage
