Hi there new here. So I fell the other day and the bike refused to start. Got her home , soldered the wire I found cut replaced the main fuses that messed up and reconnected the battery. Once’s i turn the kill switch to on, the bike starts turning on and off again as if I’m switching the kill...

So I've looked through a lot of these posts about leaking fuel pump gaskets. Mine is doing the same thing. I went to replace the gasket and noticed the "nuts" for the bottom two bolts don't have threads anymore. Looks like that bracket bent at one point. How do I replace it or fix it?

Hi there - The Aux Lights on my wife's 2022 Softail Heritage have gone out of alignment: When I ride in front of her the one light is noticeably brighter than the other. I guess I have to adjust it. I looked up the procedure in the service manual. It seems to be straight forward. Any...

Well as it says and shows I snapped the plastic transmission dipstick.. hoping someone has some knowledge on how to remove it now. I’ve tried the mallet and flathead to get it to budge and it won’t. I’ve tried an extractor but in the existing whole and it’s not deep enough so it just chews up...

Hello! Just joining and had a quick question. I have a 2005 Softail that lost power last night while riding, but only to the speedo (stuck @ 50 mph) and gas gauge. Everything else works and rode the bike home. I’ve checked fuses, but not sure on next steps. Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi, I searched awhile and not finding specifically what I'm looking for. On a FXST 2022 Softail Standard, has anyone put a wider tire on your stock setup? I may go with a EZ 200 kit from Heartland USA on the standard as its mostly for canyon carving use but eventually want to show it when I...

I have recently put new bars on my 2001 Softail standard, and once everything is back on my throttle has decided it doesn't want to spring back when releasing it. I have checked to make sure the cables aren't pinched and everything went back the same way it came off. The only thing that I can...

I was looking to swap out the engine on my 04 softail for something else, but would like to know if it's possible. If so, what are any suggestions y'all have on what I should swap to?

1998 Softail - 88 cubic inch has a brand new battery, brand new stator, but it's not firing. We were riding one evening on our way home and while going down the road the bike just quit. Could it be the voltage regulator? What else could it be? What should we check next? We really need help...

Hey y'all. I'm a moto mechanic but relatively new to Harleys (3 years experience). I'm just about at my wit's end with a mystery problem on my 86 Softail, and hoping there's someone with more experience who can weigh in. I was riding to work a couple months back, and stopped at a store for a...

Here's a video of the process.

Hey everyone! Riding season is finally here in Saskatchewan and I'm eager to get out riding. I've gotten everything back together from this winter's mods, but I keep getting two error codes. B2141 - Blinkers flash normal and all work, but the dash indicators flash fast. I just replaced the...

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am brand new to Harleys and haven't owned a motorcycle for more than 2 of the last ten years. Long story short, I inherited my Dad's bike recently (will own forever). It has been sitting relatively unridden for the last 3 years due to estate stuff...

I have recently come I to posesión of a 1995 Softail. During a frame up restoration to bring it back to life I put a new 95 wiring harness on it as the ones one it was spiced into more times that I could count. I put new wiring on it and now I can’t get my led turn signals to function. Can...

Looking to add a soundsystem in my softail deluxe, I want everything put into stretched hardbags, but still have SOME capacity for storage. (Minor things, hoodie, smokes, glasses, gloves) I just have no idea where to start. I have a budget of about a thousand dollars for the project. But I dont...

I'm not a huge fan of the mini apes on my 2020 Street Bob, but have never swapped bars in my life (this is my first bike). Two questions: Will I need to shorten my cables if I move to something like a hollywood bar? Has anyone done a swap like this and can light my path on complexity? Thanks!
