great video, in depth, lots of little tricks. Are we going to see more of this triumph ? You know we want another Todd sportster saturdays ... or triumph tuesdays or WLA wednesdays or shovelhead sundays ! :D

Great video Todd. I ended up using the stock Triumph forks on my 66 Bobber but these would look really great. I have an 88 Harley Springer and love Springer forks.

I never seen brake lines like make your own brake lines right there That's a good idea, with kind of a compression fitting at the banjo bolt..

This is extremely timely. I put a springer and disc brake on a big twin last year, but there were issues with the spacers and the install (instructions were terrible and there's not much online). Guess there was a small amount of play in the caliper because the first time I tested it it locked the front brake and caused me to dump the bike. Interested to see how this install goes and if there's any tricks or what I missed.

Nice one, Todd. Woo! 🤘

Awesome video Todd. I do have one question though. I understand why you said that front end would not work on an Ironhead. However, did you forget about the adapter neck cups that allow a big twin front on an Ironhead ?

Excellent video Thanks!

Simple months ago I bought a 1970 almost stock shovelhead while the paint is not original. And it has those type of socket bolts that hold on the front and rear brakes. I'm pretty sure it didn't have the star hub so the star hub must have been prior to 1970 mine did have an older style hub though.

I had a 69 tiger and I always thought those two fork or front bosses. We're for a sidecar mount.....

😎👍😎

[@MoeLarrycurly1]

I was wondering is there something special about a StarHub other than it's old probably well made and I see it has a zert fitting..

[@christophersmith7714]

A sidecar or something to do with the Police version of the bike I seem to remember.
