Hi. Very good video. Simple but very functional. Thank you for take your time to teach

Can I do my pan head cases

These are the kinda guys I'm trying to spend time with. A real man spreads knowledge. Awesome job👍

The old float looks pretty hard shape. New one is definately a great improvement! Got a coat on while you are working? Just like living here in the Great White North lol. Wish I could attend the Chopper fest show. I am sure there will be many interesting builds there. All the best to you and Mike.

Finally, a video explaining the offset of late model specific FX Springer hub/wheels. I have been wanting to put an all black 21" front spoked wheel on my 95 FXSTSB Bad Boy for a long time, but haven't been able to find an aftermarket option. According to your video, I can buy a new 21" for a standard softail and adjust the spokes to achieve the correct offset. Thanks!!!

Great video . I don,t have a Pan but I,m sure you have helped many guys out there as myself with my bikes . Thank you again !!!

Hi Mike I'm looking for a Evo for a new project and someone has a '84 out of a fxr for $1000 and it needs to be rebuilt and he knows nothing about it or condition as he's just a wheeler dealer. Wondering if there is anything to look out for with an '84 and if there's any years you'd recommend? Would I be better off paying $3000 for one already rebuilt. And if you prefer bottom or head breathers? Thanks in advance

Hello Mr.Kaplan👋🏼 here’s regards from PolishMan living in Ireland🙋🏻‍♂️🪬

Good to see you guys that is one SWEET RIDE thanks for the videos

This is my kinda carb! Made to do the best job possible and live forever with maintenance. Adjust the mixture as you roll! Getting the float set on a Keihen CV by bending tabs, then re-bending because you bent it too far, no drain plug, yada yada yada! When set up properly, they give good performance and great economy, but I'd sure like to be able to say I had a Rubber Ducky Float in my carb :)

I sure do enjoy your videos. I was wondering where you get your leather saddlebags? I am thinking of getting a pair for a 06 road king.

Cool stuff Mike. I had to do a double take the other day at the grocery store. You have a twin brother in Tennessee. Hahaha

Just looked up enfield racing and they are going strong, still selling the rubber ducky

Nice looking Iron Bags from Max

So good to hear from ya ! Was thinkin of you guys during the fires and worrying about you glad your safe .

Ah, a brand new floater in the bowl, to gauge the pantry door, level headed & ready now, for that Twist that wants some more . . . 'MORE!?' As our atmospheric pressures, are split through differing tubes, it speedeth up the airflow, like the gap between nice boobs. For that V is for venturi & they sure know how to suck, but if your straw runs dry in the pantry, you need more than a rubber duck! - you need fuel* (*Petroleum motor spirit, openly sold in the colonies, but known as 'gas' . . . they're a strange lot out there : )

I used one of those floats in my WLA and it works great.

Dale and now Matt at wheels through time are true believers in the rubber ducky floats. They have been using them for years and have rebuilt a shit ton of old bikes over the years. love the work y'all are doing keeping this great American iron on the road

I'd love to get a Linkert for my pan. Been running a Super B for 25 years and it's been great, but I would try a Linkert if it wasn't too messed up. I know they're pretty expensive. Have you heard of the floats made from PEEK? There was a guy in Illinois named Cotton that was making and selling them.

Hello Mike and Mike. From Thomasville Georgia come to bike week in Dayton Florida

Thanks Mike , I always gain a little more knowledge for every vidio I watch .

You have no idea how happy I am to find your videos. Thank you!

Lol the best of help ( including myself) with something you're used to doing alone is aggravating at best in my opinion. Im not as old as you Mike haha but my hands also think its funny to play ooo ya almost had it. Appreciate the content man, im going to put a Mikuni on my shovel hopefully this week i get too it. I don't have the shiny kit though just the carb so ill be doin what we call chop, cut, rebuild from scratch but at least i have a route to follow. See how things go, ill have to do some yoga poses and put on some classical music cause im not proud of it but i may have a slight temper every so often and well ... Thanks for what ya do man, my mentor permanently moved on a few years back and you remind me alot of him so really is tough to watch ya but fuckin appreciated more than ya know.

Hey Mike, My problem. I have a ‘09 Street Bob FXDB. I installed a Frankenstein Trike kit on it because I needed the balance of 3 wheels because of a heart attack. My rear wheels and tires are 15x10 Centerline auto drags and 295/50x15 Radial T/A’s . My front wheel is a spoke wheel. I bought a 2000-2006 Fat Boy solid wheel that I want on my FXDB. From what I found I need to remove the original fat boy bearings and install the new bearings, 6205-rs bearings. I am stuck there. I found spacer kits for 25mm. Hopefully they will line up brake rotor to caliper. I will remove I rotor since FXDB is single rotor. Have you ever done a swap like this? Old 3/4” and installed on 25mm axle?

Hey Mike, First time commenter. Love your channel. Your sage instruction and advise has been invaluable on my latest vintage bike project. It is not my first vintage bike but it is my first Harley. This video was very helpful but I have a question. I noticed you timed the points first then gapped them. I'm no expert on harleys but I've changed a lot of points and timed a lot of engines. My process has always ben to gap first - then time. Changing the gap changes the timing. Changing the timing has no effect on the gap. Am I wrong or did I misunderstand the video?

Maybe you could show how to remove and clean injecters on a 03 fatboy sometime.

@pacificmike would it be possible to contact to discuss an interview please? I’m unable to email you via the website as it needs an update from the site owner.

Having a hard time on your website to send you an email. It says the link is down.

Did you ever get your old 45 done ???

The rocker arms in your video look very close to the sifton rocker arms that I just bought that don't seem to be fitting properly. they're a little bit longer than the factory rocker arms that I have. They're like a 16th of an inch longer so the big fat spacer doesn't bottom out on the raised shaft boss. So I can't simulate my end play at all and that's why it is binding up when I tighten the nut. I bought a set of four rocker arms with shafts. Are the rocker arms different lengths and specific to a particular shaft?

I figured out why my rocker arms were binding up when I tighten the night after assembling them dry with only the large spacer. I watched your video where you showed the raised portion on the shaft protruding out past the rocker arm. So I pulled mine apart and checked the same thing. I measured the new rocker arm itself to the old rocker arm that I'm replacing and the new ones are a 1/16th of an inch longer. When I slide the rocker arm onto the shaft, the machined raised boss that the bushing rides on does not stick out past the end of the rocker arm. It's actually recessed. So chamfering the spacer with a 3/4 inch drill bit will do nothing for me. I need to take material off of the spacers apparently.

What is the part number for The rocker nut washers? Can't seem to find them but I need them.

Keep up the good work Mike! You really don't know how much you've helped me through out your videos! Much respect ! Greetings from Greece!

Thank you for all your videos Mike they are extremely helpful and you are very knowledgeable and I appreciate it. I'm installing some new rocker arm shafts and rocker arms and new fat washers in my rocker boxes and when I assemble everything with just the fat washer and a little bit of an assembly lube on the shaft and I go and tighten the rocker shaft nut the rocker arms seizes up and when I back the nut off slightly the rocker arm frees up. There are no shims anywhere and all parts are new. I don't know what's going on. Can you offer some guidance?

I'm installing new rocker arms and shafts in my rocker boxes and when I assemble everything without shims using just the fat washer I tighten the shaft nut and the rocker arm seizes. I loosen nut slightly and the rocker arm frees up. What's going on? All new parts.

Mike What is the best carburetor for a 1974-1975 stock motot....except i have Anfews PB+ cams.? Thanks John

I always set things down right in front of me and can't find them to lol

Hey bub I've got a 100 inch revtec an a baker 5 speed.well my problem is that the arm that comes across the top an my cable connects to some how came up from the trans one day an now it went back down but now the arm won't shift the bike even when I pull the clutch

What do you think about installing the pistons into the jugs first with just the bottom of the piston hanging out far enough to install the wrist pin?

Outstanding vidio

This man in a saint

Thanks man, I have a 51 fl parts project bike I’ve had no idea how to get together. Your videos are really educational for me. Thank you.

Mike are them xa or wla forks on that bike thank you

I appreciate you Mike! Back when me and my dad were learning about Evos we both used to watch your videos and talk to each other about it. He passed away last year and I haven’t really been online much. But I wanted to let you know everytime I watch your videos it brings a tear and a smile. You’re a blessing 🤝🏻🤝🏻

Metzler Me888 90/90/21 looks like. I didn't get to see the second part of the fork seal replacement. Great videos and tips

Thankyou for your help! I'm fired up to get my old bike back together!

Mike is awesome he says everything step by step and is very knowledgeable I enjoyed watching him rebuild a evo motor and sense then anytime I need to know anything I look him up first plus subscribed to his channel.
