Guy showed up at the bar with a 42 knuckle yesterday. He’s has it since high school. Mostly original. Started it 1 kick, twice. I’m still trying to get my shovel to start 1 kick every time. I’m just a youngin tryin to get my learnins in!!! Thanks for the videos 😎🤘
Hi Todd great to see you looking so well..your eyesight seems to have improved and your articulation in this vid is clear with no brain fog..keep them coming..
I wouldn’t even know where to start with starting one of these real old school harleys and I’ve been riding bikes my whole life. Thanks for this. Very informative
@hunting harleys I had been watching you for about a year before I bought my first bike, a 2000 xl1200. I know she is a little younger than you are interested in, but I have to say that I knew that they had to warm up, but I started using your technique of feeling the heat work it’s way through the cylinders with my hand from you. Seeing you touching and palming the cylinders while they warm up, and imitating that, really helped me learn my bike and her quirks. Awesome videos my dude!
This video really made me be able to start my Panhead 1 kick. I was so used to kicking the shit out of it. Im 25 so trying to learn as much as possible.
Wicked cool Todd, thanks for the demo. I run a Mikuni 42 flat side on my 02 Train and although starting the motorcycle has come a long way, she certainly has her own way of talking to me here in New England throughout the seasons. Long live the venturi controlled fuel leak
So when you're talking about cracking the head before it warms up you're referring to the knuckle being a cast iron head, in 48 when they switched to aluminum heads they aren't as prone to cracking as the older iron heads correct ? ...
I do it different Todd and starts always by me kick it 3 times and shove on then choke off and 1 klick on the choke and restart half way and start that’s the way I think
They way I start, is full choke,, kick over 3 times with full throttle on. Then put half throttle, turn key on,,open1/4 throttle open,,kick over,,first kick,, will start up,and keep running ..

Awesome videos my dude!
Informative, educational and colorfully put, so that everyone can understand!!!👍😊
right on. uber cool. I have found with my bikes that none of them are exactly alike. They all have little differences in how they start.
Beautiful motorcycle... and thanks for the good information on starting. Great video...

Damn, thats a nice sounding bike.

Beautiful bike. What a bike in that condition worth?
To many factors. Year, condition, originality, does it have its original paint or not
У меня Днепр МТ тоже чем то похож на этот мотоцикл!👍🔧🔩⚙️🤘

Sounds so good
My grandpa hurt his knee on the the sprocket, and he wasn't able to kick it no more, dam dirt roads back then .
That bike's awesome !!!
Looks like fun!
Thank you Todd!!
Эти Харлей Дэвидсоны так сами плохо заводятся или что то не так у этого мотоцикла?А так мотоцикл очень хороший👍🤘🔧🔩⚙️
Awesome

Each machine in each environment starts differently
same for pan !
❤❤❤❤❤ nice.....👀👀👍👍👍👍👍
yep mess up your kickin more then you want to haha
Круто,машина обалденная,но чтобы ездить,надо быть механиком.
Like starting an airplane
It was because you had no whiskers ..
everyone knows a bike will never start if you point a camera at it......
Thank God for electric start and fuel injection.
electric start, very yes. I can get along fine without fuel injection though.
