So good Steve. Always learn something from your installs.
Ride safe from Sydney Australia ✌️
Thank you Sir!! Much appreciated. be safe!
Is it just me or you do also like to watch this dude working. Ots like he almost knows what he's doing 😅
"almost" being the key word lol ..thank you for checking it out mark!
Having an 06 Deluxe myself. I love these videos. Not a fan of the cholo look but still getting some ideas from this build. Keep em coming brother.
yes sir there are so many directions one can take a softail as far as looks...glad to see you are getting good ideas. I have some more coming soon!
Where are you located sir? I want to put that wheel setup on my 2019 street glide
Great video. I have a question about the spacers. My 02 Fatboy needed a new tire. I'm wondering if the spacers are the same for all soft tails ? Where can I find a diagram of the rear wheel spacers? Thanks
go to this link and finish selecting your bike then you can choose to open each part of the bike and it will give you a detailed breakdown of the part and the part number. partsfinder.onlinemicrofiche.com/ronnies/showmodel/16/harleydavidsonmc/2002
@@sikbaggers Thank you for the link. I'm kinda in a time crunch so you have been a help !!!
Great video Love the bike. Quick question, what lift, and stand are you using?
thank you! I use the Apluslift...you can get it on amazon here but I would call them before making your order to make sure they can deliver to your residence. amzn.to/3NODSrD
Looks amazing! Are those wheels traditional wire wheels that will need tubes?
These are tubeless wheels..which is another reason I like them so much. They have a protective layer that is applied to the spokes on the inside that stops the leaks.
@@sikbaggers That's awesome, I love spoked wheels but hate running tubes.
What is there a design in bearing chanGe✌🏻😎
It's not just U. Excellent video with tips & tricks!!! Thank You!
Sorry for the late reply..been at Sturgis. Thank you for checking it out!
love the wheels man. Went to their website and picking out my wheels its asking about a "cush drive hub". What is that?
cush drive hubs are rubber pieces found in the rear wheel of the touring class motorcycles that are designed to reduce stress on drivetrain components during gear or throttle changes. Softails do not have them.
No BBB Rally again this year?
Unfortunately no...but its on our list Jeff! We have talked about it several times its jts hard to find the time to go.
Instead of your bag for your caliper, a square of bubble wrap and a rubber band will protect better
yes sir...before I had those bags I always wrapped them in towels with some painters tape lol...whatever it takes because you dont want that banging your fender for sure.
@@sikbaggers You just love them bags- they give you great memories, and I can dig it, man. I can dig it.-Yeah, I just drudged up my best Dennis Hopper. N'UCK N'UCK N'UCK is my best Jack Nicholson. Time for a beer, I've talked too much. Later!
Now I want to know where I can get stretched forks for my 16 Pro Street Breakout, because I have the EASY RIDER T-Shirt. Might as well go all in, huh?
Is advanblack going to come out with a softail bagger kit?
They already have hard bags and rails for the softails now..I did the videos on this bike when I first got it...we put lowering fairings on it, a tour pack and hard bags.
So when you got back the rear wheel from DNA was it still not true? Just wondering because I plan on ordering from DNA for my heritage 21” front 18”rear but I’m keeping stock fenders
There is a slight offset to the rear wheel but not in direction that they offset it the first time. running an 18 just makes it worse becasue you are so close ot your fender now that it is obvious. I went with Sinister fat spoke wheels in the end and I went back to the stock 16 in the rear and 21 in the front and no issues at all now.
Can you give me your thoughts on the Fueling vented dipstick vs. the Trask vented cover? I have a 2021 Tri-Glide Ultra and want to and one for preventive maintenance. Both seem to accomplish the same results. Thanks.
They look awesome! Quick question, why Diamond spokes over Twisted spokes? Personal preference or does one look better than the other going down the road
The diamond cut and the twisted are pretty equal going down the road. The diamond cuts are just easier to clean.
@SIKbaggers Could you please do a bar change video for StreetGlide I dont seeone in your vidz thanks great informational videos keep it up brother.
This is the last video I seen from you. Okay, I need your advice…I went to check my oil and the top of the cap came off and the dipstick stayed in.
How can I get it out so I can replace it.
The top cap is just that...its just a cap and it held on by 4 little prongs...can you pop it back it on or did it break? If the cap broke you will need to replace the cap and snap it back on.
HEY NICE VIDEO WHAT SIZE ARE THE WHEELS FRONT AND REAR AND WHAT BRAND ARE THE TIRES. AND WHERE CAN A BUY THESE WHEELS AND HOW MUCH ARE THEY. IM READY TO CHOLO OUT MY BIKE. I HAVE THE 2008 ROAD KING CLASSIC I THINK THE REAR WHEELS ARE THEY DIFFERENT.
all of the links are in the description or but here is the link to these wheels...you go through the drop down menus and build your wheels and it will give you a total. sinisterwheel.com/product/all-chrome-with-diamond-cut-spokes/ 21 front and 16 rear.
Love the new wheels. Spokes are awesome, and the new pulley and rotors really compliment the look!
Thank you for checking ti out Steve...im loving them..getting tons of compliments on them too..they really catch the sun which is what I was hoping for.
So are you saying it's better to stick with the 16" if you are going to bag it later down the road?
yes stay with the 16 so you can sit lower when aired out
Hell yeah. Glad to see the Softail back on the lift.
Im glad to have it back up there! Stoked to get these last few things done and get that new tin set in.
Are those both advanblack fenders?
@@daleclarkjr The rear fender is..they offer it now on the website...the front one is just from ebay
I understand the need for the 16 in the rear.. the 18 looks soooo much better on these bikes though. lol
yeah it does look better but man what a pain in the ass getting it all lined out and not rubbing....doing air ride on this one so the 16 works better for my needs.
Might of missed it but did you ever get the part number for the front wheel spacer and abs cover?
Solid video
thank you!
Sinister!!!!!! There from and in my hometown. Turlock CA. They have been in business for years. They started back when Toyota trucks were lowered and painted like punky Brewster wardrobe. Excellent family owned Buisness
Yes sir..super nice guys every time I talk to them. Very knowledgeable about their products as well. I would recommend them every time!
Those rims look awesome appreciate the video😎 change the fuel filter in the RG. OMG that some bitch was filthy at 40,000 miles. I’m glad I seen that one that you did appreciate your videos.
Thank you Brian! And yes ..I do recommend the filter change about 30 to 35k. Its usually pretty noticeable in the throttle after the change too.
Great Video, my 2019 deluxe ready to change to 21(3.5) front and 18 (4.25) rear from DNA coming this week, point of view I have a clue what I have to do because of your video. Awesome
Glad to help! thanks for checking it out!
I have a 2018 Street Glide and I noticed the front wheel spacer has been installed incorrectly. The lines are on the inside instead of the outside. Has this damaged anything that I need to be worried about. I never noticed it until I seen this video. Makes me sick to know I've been riding with it on backwards. Please advise. Love your videos!
You're fine. Some models, usually older ones had a chamfered end on them and that side went on a specific side. If you notice on your spacer it is the same on both sides. however the service manual still says lines go outward away from wheel. Its just a good habit to get into in case you ever run into one. Just remember lines out and youll always be good.
Beautiful build! Great information Steve!👊🇺🇸
Thank you Tom...the sinister wheels are really a high quality upgrade compared to whats out there...we had a couple of different wheels on this build and stuck with the sinsters!
thank you tom! Much appreciated
Thank you just did my heritage 21 and 16 thanks to your videos went well. I watch all your videos if I need to add stuff to mine.
Hey paul, thats awesome man..glad to help!!
Where did you get the pulley bolts from? All the ones i find the washers cover the recessed holes in the aftermarket pulley.
yeah well these do too and they are from sinsiter...that was my goof in the video before I realized I had a spacer in the box...and I didnt edit it out...but the pully goes with the recessed holes facing up and the washers fill the spaces.
This really looks amazingly good.
And i already liked the previous wheels.
These are so much better quality than the DNA wheels...The dna wheels are a good budget wheel. If you have them side by side you can really see the difference in the quality
I ride 2up, and run 21 front rear 18, have shotgun shock rear !! No probs at all !!
Hey that is great! Im glad you dont have any issues. Like I said it was super close, not touching but close..too close for me ..thanks for checking o9ut the video! Be safe!
Great video and information as always.
I have a belt tension gauge, wasn’t sure I was using it correctly. Your explanation on use made it clear how to set the belt tension. Thank you.
Thank you ricky for the comment and glad to help sir! Pretty straight forward just need a good reference point
I've been wanting to do a 21 conversion on my heritage with the fat spokes but on a fixed income who can afford it but it sure does look good great job
Hey Michael...yes wheels and tires can be pretty pricey. One thing I have learned about wheels, not just spokes, is that you really do get what you pay for on them. Its easy to buy some cheaper wheels and you will undoubtedly have issues. I really hope thee last!
Another great vid - thank you!
Do you have an opinion on traditional spoke vs the fat spoke? Thanks!
Thank you Jesse! Honestly it comes down to astethics...which one do you like the looks of better? Nothing really different about the 2 types other than looks. I prefer the fat spoke as they are easier to clean and in my opinion just look better.
@@sikbaggers Roger that! Thank you!
I mean… I’d take the old wheels. 😜
lol yeah well if you were close id sell them at a steep discount but I dont know about shipping them, they are heavy
@@sikbaggers where you located?
@@sikbaggershow much do you want for them with shipping?
P r o m o s m
what?
Hey where can I order the bolts to mount the pulley and brake disk at? Great video.
Lots of companies make them just google your year, model and you will find them in chrome or high polished ...I got these from Sinister but your local HD has standard and chrome versions as well. Honestly they arent that bad priced from HD.
@@sikbaggers cool thank you very much.
I'll pretend that I didn't see u put that belt pully on upside-down lol
yeah if you look at the clips I had it mounted upside down before I knew there was a spacer in the box..then I clipped in the spacer and then reused the old clip from tightening it down lol..its installed correctly but yes I was back and forth while shooting it LOL...it was along day...good eye though!
@sikbaggers I had no doubt that it was installed correctly. Just busting balls a little.
@@blackedoutbandit haha well i need it sometimes too
@@sikbaggers don't we all. Lol
Nice, I like 16in front and back!😎
Yes sir..im liking it much better! I feel more comfortable with the space and even the lower look the 16 gives.
Good Job. Love the wheels.
thanks for checking out the video and the comment! Love these wheels!
very nice wheels and bike
Thank you sir!
Really love the look 😎🤙thanks
Thank you tig! Im loving the diamond cut...man it really catches the sunlight.
Those wheels are gorgeous!!
Thank you! They really pop in the sun!
Really nice wheels
thank you Robert!
Why is it so you must use rotor bolts only once?
They are a double torque bolt...lots of stress on those bolts after torquing them...its kind of like head bolts in your car/trucks engine..one time use. They just recommend to replace them so they dont loose strength in the bolt after torquing and removing
@@sikbaggers double torque bolt-never heard of it, but then, I never worked on engines or Harley Davidson's before. The 1st time is always the most frightening. After that, you're almost a pro.
