    😁 I just bought a 100% Stock 1990 883 (4 speed) Evo with 30k miles on it.... Runs like a top, I Love it, No regrets 👍.

    I still have my 1995 Springer Softail. It is my first and only Harley and it still runs great. It’s been very reliable with just regular maintenance. The best upgrade I’ve done is changed to a 6 speed transmission. Much lower rpm at speed on hwy.

    I rode my 87 evo home 110 miles. They just run well. Throw a couple gaskets at it too keep oil off the ground, and they're good.

    I got tired of my mixing valve contraption. For roofs i just batch mix. Simpler and more reliable for me. I'll x-jet driveways/patios.

    • @UncleBogator
      @UncleBogator  6 месяцев назад +1

      I think I'd be ok batch mixing if I had more room for a dedicated batch mix container. My last few jobs I've needed both the pressure and softwash systems. If I had batch mixed, I wouldn't have had an effective downstream mix. But yeah, it's kind of a pain constantly troubleshooting.

    The only mistake/my new worry is the new old bikes... is the stunt scene that these things went thru recently.
    Also! Dont skip over the 3 hole change... youll be surprised the lack of yt videos showing how to do so on the non soft tail big twin

      @josephfriedrich9792 6 месяцев назад

  • @rob3568

    The back wheel being off to the side also is an indicator of the motor mounts being worn, which is also a contributor to the wobble.

    • @UncleBogator
      @UncleBogator  6 месяцев назад

      In this case the motor mounts are new. The wobble was definitely do to improper torque. I have a whole other video coming soon of the fixes we’ve made so far. The axle nut wasn’t torqued at all. Just barely tight.
