Out of curiosity why Bitubo over SE Ohlins or Ohlins? I went with SE Ohlins because I ride my bike hard enough I got orange peel and rebound wear(stuff you see on track bikes), and I was in need of total adjustability. I was super tempted to go with the HyperPro which has a remote res with Low and High speed compression adjustment, but no one had done an SE Ohlins on a Softail video, so I said, why not? A tip, once you start riding that bike real hard through corners, keep a watch on your front and rear tire wear patterns. If you start seeing a sharp ridge on the back edge of the tread and the front edge is wearing round, that means your rebound is too slow. Almost everyone who does these after market shocks on harleys has too slow of a rebound setting(I made that mistake myself). If you dont ride fast or twisty roads enough you probably wont see this kind of wear though. Tire wear will give you a good insight into how off your rebound setting is.
@kidmoto2223 күн бұрын
Bitubo is a lesser known brand but has been making race suspension for sport bikes since the 70’s. They have a very long history of race suspension. It’s fully adjustable like the Ohlins but for a fraction of the price with ZERO sacrifice in quality. The front and rear are all fully adjustable rebound, compression and sag. That said I have it on pretty good authority that the SE Ohlins are a licensed name product not an Ohlins true product. I’m also looking for an upgrade from stock not looking to race my bike. I just spent six days riding CO and WY from my place in ND. This was close to 3k in six days so the upgraded suspension did exactly what I wanted it to do.
@FranBunnyFFXII23 күн бұрын
@@kidmoto22 Oh the SE Ohlins shock is 100% made by ohlins and licensed by HD under and exclusivity deal. They secured ohlins making them a compression resevoir version of their shock and to be the sole distributor of the part. It's just an HD 516 with a compression reservoir added, and tuned to HD's specifications, which generally means for a broader range of weights of riders so it can be sold to more people. The performance is excellent reguardless of who made what where, and that's what matters about it in the end. It was expensive though, yes.

@kidmoto2227 күн бұрын
It doesn’t. The M8 motor is designed to mist oil back into the heads and with the stock air cleaner that is all contained inside. When you have a more open air cleaner it gives you the impression that it leaks. However the real issue is the sub optimal oil pump. When I did my Stage 2 and installed a complete S&S Cam chest it comes with an upgraded oil pump that solves the sumping issues of the old pump.

My guess is that Custom Dynamics are making lights that are completely “road compliant”. I don’t know about the Letric lights but the moons lights do have a disclaimer on the packaging that they are for off road use. Since motorcycles only have one light it’s not really cracked down on.

That looks awesome!! That faring looks 100% better then that crap Harley puts on their bikes. I never liked faring's until I saw this one. Its nice and clean and wraps around the front of the bike real nice like a glove. Its a smaller faring which doesn't take away from the sleekness of the bikes frame. Looks real sporty and minus all the electrical mambo jambo which makes no sense when you're riding and one less electrical thing thats going to brake down on it which saves u lots of $$$$.. If u want electronics just by the helmet that has all that in it. Nice bike!! I have a 2018 RK special same as yours except mine is industrial grey which like almost identical to that color on your bike. Hey how is your oil pump running did u ever upgrade it? Some are saying the oil pumps on the 17-19's are malfunctioning on some bikes but Harley says that its only happened on a few bikes because people are over revving their bikes and riding at high rpms and thats what causing it. What are your thoughts on this whole oil pump issue?? Let me know?? Thanks
@kidmoto222 ай бұрын
Thank man appreciate it. Oil pump…so my bike was running great and not any oil issues until about 15k. I started seeing misting of oil from my air cleaner. I was planning a stage two upgrade and so I installed the S&S 475 cam chest. This replaces all the internal parts of the cam chest. The S&S oil pump is far superior with three chambers to sump the oil and it moves it so much better. This resolved the oil sumping issue and misting from the air cleaner. Plus the cam upgrade and the bike sounds and feels amazing. 10/10 would recommend a cam chest upgrade.

So to my knowledge I’m one of the first to do the install this way. If you have a little skill and are willing to do some fab work you got this. I cut the side and bottom of the nacelle off so that I could still install it back on the bike. This allowed for the front end to turn but still have a finished look to cover the mess of wires. I sprayed the edges for now but will have it sand blasted and re-powder coated at some point this season.
