One of if not the best dude in the cycle world ....been a fan for two decades ....awesome guy!!!

[@BillyLaneChoppers]

Thank you sir, this is much appreciated

[@JoeFurtado-xv5no]

I miss the days of carbonated engines they had their quirks but man nothing beat the sound and you had to learn how to wrench on them. I learned something new watching this video appreciate you passing on your wisdom brother

[@BillyLaneChoppers]

Couldn't agree more

[@zachwitters3293]

I'm new to magnetos, this is very helpful. I have 82 fxe with std cases, it has dual magnetos and dual plugs.

[@needmetal3221]

Clay looked fantastic. Lots of grip

[@BillyLaneChoppers]

It was!. Really good surface at this track

[@bruceedgecomb8722]

what a great teacher

[@BillyLaneChoppers]

Thank you sir

[@larsblankenfjell9814]

You are fantastic Billy!!!

[@BillyLaneChoppers]

Thank you, I appreciate that you watch my videos

[@keithcarchide806]

🤤 Love that bike man! Fascinated with 45s and I’m working on finding one myself to build. Thanks for sharing more on one your race bikes. Sweet builds man.🤙🏼

[@BillyLaneChoppers]

Now is the time to buy a 45, cash is short. Hope you get one.

[@andregonzales04]

That bike is bad asssssss

[@joshpitts25]

Really enjoy your vids yo. Keep it up!!

[@mercinary856]

That is great info to share. Your bike looks great by the way.

[@BillyLaneChoppers]

Thank you.

[@rodeleon2875]

great detail and explanation as always. that 45 sounds sweet at idle. i'll bet it would set off some car alarms. lol

[@BillyLaneChoppers]

Cams in my WR have high lift and extremely long duration for exhaust scavenging. It will barely idle at 750rpm. Such a great engine

[@glennh.2573]

Hey Billy I roll my crank around every chance I get😅 always great videos brother

[@BillyLaneChoppers]

Everyone should. Thank you

[@Musclecar1972]

Just wondering if you’ve ever done anything with the V-Rod engines. Considering the heat in Florida, it might be a good choice for a city cruiser.

[@BillyLaneChoppers]

I have not. I prefer older stuff I can tune with a screwdriver

[@Musclecar1972]

@@BillyLaneChoppers I understand, I don’t do well with modern technology myself, that’s why I stick to the older muscle cars, I know what I’m looking at , I don’t need a computer to tell me what’s up. Although right now, the W-30 I spoke to you a few months ago is throwing me curves I’ve never encountered. Just ordered an original intake from your neck of the woods, hopefully it will cure what ails it.

[@lasersbee]

Thanks for another useful tidbit...😉

[@BillyLaneChoppers]

You’re welcome. It’s pretty much the same method for any V-twin engine. Using that crank case web is a neat trick

[@1Badbiker-lu3vi]

Hey Billy ! Me is Fred from the Netherlands , Love your videos and learn alot from ya bouth shovelheads need your knowhow abouth custom wiring a neutral switch . I use a ledligth ,1 wire to the ignition and the other wire to the neutral switch , DOES not work ? replaced 3 switches...if I take the wire to the neutralswitch and ground that the light goes on ? whats wrong ? Please help out , can,t find nothing on the web...

[@BillyLaneChoppers]

The neutral switch connects the circuit to ground. One wire to the light is all you need

[@jimhmod]

Good stuff!! Messing with a friends '47 flatty that has a Morris mag that seems to have intermittent sparking issues but also has an issue with kicker. I think it has too much shaft end play and the kicker gear on the far left of the trans isn't engaging firmly causing it to slip when kicking, not giving me a full stroke kick. Any idea on how much end play is too mcuh?? The manual I have doesn't seem to list any specs that I can find

[@BillyLaneChoppers]

It’s not the end play. You need a new crank gear set. They wear out, or the bushing wears on it.

[@jimhmod]

@@BillyLaneChoppers Thanks, I'll be finding out as soon as the bike lift gets empty

[@superlite177]

Way cool.

[@BillyLaneChoppers]

Thank you, I love these flatheads

do you answer any of your messages ? , we have left a number of comments and never an answer . . . . . .

[@BillyLaneChoppers]

I respond to as many comments as I can, such as this one. There is no messaging available within KZbin. I have almost 50M views, so you can imagine that I cannot possibly respond to every comment. That said, I appreciate you watching my videos.

[@pamdunn8454]

@@BillyLaneChoppers I've watched you sense the great biker build offs , I've been hooked sense you did the hub less wheel and the wicked hand made gas tanks with car parts - are you interested in a 1942 WXA project for sale "were cleaning house"

[@sanderpena]

you still built bikes for people Billy? man I would love a chopper from you.

[@BillyLaneChoppers]

Yes. I’m down to doing 1-2 a year. I have a couple here that I’m finishing up, you’ll see them on KZbin

[@guillermocarrillo3959]

I thought you said you would set the timing at 45 degrees?

[@BillyLaneChoppers]

I did say that, but I retarded it and started at 35 degrees. I eventually settled on 42 degrees BTDC.
