Desperate times lead to desperate actions, dropping the bike onto the left side works to shuffle fuel around till I can fix the issue. Otherwise I think the test ride is a success!!!

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.

That is the sickest first year evo bagger ive ever seen. I hope you dont change its aesthetics at all. It looks perfect 🤘

Aesthetics are staying for a while, and (hopefully) will make it to South Dakota next year! I think it suits the bikes attitude and character 👍🏻

My first Harley was a 90 FLT, great bike, took a bit for automotive style insrument panel to grow on me but when it did, I loved it!

Why fix it if it's not broke runs fine must need a top end

Lol I really have an addiction for old bikes. Particularly cheap old girls that nobody wants but turn out to be lots of fun. I like wrenching, and I think its better than sitting on the couch rotting your brain!

I used to strip bikes down & restore them as best I could with new parts etc. But as I get older I've just fixed them up enough to use & found it a lot easier (obviously) but also I can use it straight away, not be to precious about paintwork chrome etc and most importantly enjoy it. Currently running around on a 100cc Yamaha that is clean & everything works but shows it's age (& history) with pride. It makes me smile every time I get on it. My restored RD400 is great but the little 'hundred' is my go to weapon of choice. Hope you decide to fix yours up & use it for a while. Enjoy.

Life changes over time, I’d have done the same as you when I was younger… whatever I do I’m keeping this on the road (once it actually gets on the road) and riding it often!

Can't wait to see how it'll look once you fixed it. Hope for a nice new paint job.
