[@megastick9324]

I bought an 83 FLHT in worse shape than that one a few yrs ago from a guy cheap. It’s was beat and ugly, but I wanted the shovelhead drivetrain for another project. I planned on selling off the roller and title to get some money back, no offers. Yrs later the wife asked, will an EVO motor fit in there? Yup, it’ll bolt right in. “ why don’t you build it back with an EVO for us to ride together?” She rides her own custom 82 FXR we built. So over a few yrs I redid the old bike. 107”S&S motor from a Big Dog, converted to belt rear drive, upgraded brakes, 6spd OD gear set, tons of other upgrades but used as much of the original bike as possible. Today it’s a smooth as glass two up tourer. The 107, recammed for low and mid range is smooth and strong and the old FLT frame is a joy to cruise on. It was a long process but it’s a hobby, so saving the old iron is a labor of love. Those ugly old FLTs are some smooth bikes on the hiway.

When picking up a bike, turn the bars AWAY from you; much easier to pick it up.

@tta850 it's a pain changing out a belt, impossible alongside the road. I'd keep the chain more maintenance, but you don't have to take your primary apart to change when it breaks, and it will break. The belt is my least favorite thing on my 83 FXSB!

Nice to see NYC neighborhoods from a helmet cam (and not from someone going stupid fast on a Japanese bike). Good job getting it going. My 93 Glide Ultra is coming along and almost road worthy. Following your journey!

Amazing man ! I'd love to fix one up, I got my first bike about 2 months ago in rough condition and I've done a good amount of work to it to get it running smooth. Great Video !!!
