Me he vuelto literalmente loco para encontrar un video para cambiar las pastillas de mi sportster custom de 2002, lo más padecido ha sido este pues las pinzas son casi iguales (van sujetas al eje trasero por un brazo de la misma pinza y no desmontan) y digo casi por lo siguiente: en el video dice que el tetón cuadrado va en la parte exterior y en la mía va en el interior me volví de nuevo loco (igualito que en la búsqueda de videos) intentando colocarlas según el video, llegué a cortar unos mm que había de diferencia entre las pastillas nuevas y las antiguas y no había manera, 3 horas largas cagándome en todo y no acababan de coger la posición para poder meter los pasadores, al final en un último intento desesperado puse la pastilla del tetón cuadrado por dentro y encajaron solas!! Por eso digo lo del "casi iguales" los que tengáis una sportster con ese modelo de pinza tened en cuenta este detalle, saludos
Thanks for the help you’re a lifesaver! I had some weird residue on the inside of my speedometer that showed up all of the sudden. Thankfully it cleaned right up.
Yo al coche se lo cambio cada 10000, a la moto cada año. Los filtros de forma alterna. Pero lo que realmente degrada el aceite es el uso y un poco el paso del tiempo.
Dude, thank you for this video, seriously thank you! I had a perfectly good speedometer with a needle positioned wrong at the 6 o clock position and it's always been that way. It worked fine just was 25 mph under my real speed so as you could imagine it was annoying to look at and to have it blocking my digital screen. I had no symptoms of a faulty or dirty speed sensor as everything worked perfectly including rpms odometer and even the speedo besides the needle being wrongly positioned. This video gave me the confidence to open my speedo up and zero out the needle. The speedo you had in the video is very similar to mine almost identical actually so to see a step by step and thorough description on how to pull the needle up and off was just spectacular! I did everything exactly how you did it and at some points I was second guessing myself like prying the crimp up which took me a very long time to do and especially the needle itself which required alot more force to get off than I was expecting and it scared the hell outta me. I realized the needle has 3 click positions when putting back on and I had to place it at 1 mph to get it to 0 because the first 2 clicks seem like its lined up at 0 the first time I did it but than the final 3rd click to push it all the way down kept moving me down 1 mph. So I started at 1 mph and the first 2 clicks were at 1 mph than the final click lined it perfectly at 0 mph. I did diagnostics sweep and it did the full 120 mph sweep which was first test than I rode it and the speedo worked perfectly! Thanks to ypur video I finally have a perfect speedometer!!! I really love the speedo I got too and it is like brand new so it wouldve sucked having to change it. I can't tell you how long ive agonized over this thinking id have to spend $350+ for a new speedo and/or speed sensor but all I needed was to reposition the needle all along and until your video I thought wasnt possible! So dude, seriously thank you!!
I have that speedo on my Harley and the needle is in the 6 o'clock position and is 25 mph under my actual speed when riding. It literally sits in the middle of the electronic screen for odometer reading etc. What is wrong!? Can I fix it by moving the needle back to 0 if I open it up?
Supergooood! Really. Thanks for the video! I've done everything step by step. The most important thing in the work is to be PATIENT !!!! Just go slowly, slowly, round by round.... Thanks!
Anyone still replying here ? I replaced my led with success but now my odometer is acting weird and most of the time it is showing all zeros…. Anyone know why ? Thanks
My speedo needle broke about 3/4 of the way down and this video is gonna help allot at least now I know I can replace the needle rather than 300+ for the whole assy
Hey were you able to reposition the needle in your speedometer? My needle is in the 6 o'clock position in middle of digital analog screen instead of sitting at 0 and when I ride it will go up like normal but be 25 mph under the speed im going. So if im doing 25mph the needle will get to 0 and 8f im going 50mph the needle will get to 25 mph. Im stressing about this and don't wanna change my speedo cuz of the odometer reading not being accurate. Wondering if you know if I can fix this? Thanks
@@AstroRampage Ahh damn man im sorry. I best not try to mess with it and should just bring it to the shop cuz I don't have gentle hands and am clumsy with tedious jobs. Haha
Thank you for this video. Help! I just moved to Geneva Switzerland and need to make the change from miles to kilometers. I prefere to change the whole odometer. Any advice on a reliable website or store to purchase this from. Thanking you in advance.
magnífico trabajo!!!, tengo una pregunta, ¿no sería mejor taladrar las alforjas con una broca corona?, voy a montar unas Vramack Seven modelo 2 en hyosung aquila gv 125 y estoy mirando info antes de cagarla jajajaja.
I installed a much larger motor in my bike and it's likely going to break the analog speedometer which only goes to 120mph. I noticed that the metric ones are good for 180 kp/h. I see some metric ones on ebay but they're expensive but I'd love to buy one and make it accurately read mph.
Hay cosas en el video del cambio de esfera que no son la forma más adecuada de hacerlas, como la de abrir el arillo exterior y posteriormente su cierre, la forma de retirar la aguja y alguna otra cosilla, para hacerlo como solución de emergencia mientras no se encuentra un profesional que lo deje como de origen puede valer e instruir a los que munca lo hicieron, es mi opinión.
Buen día excelente información,una pregunta por qué en los manuales de servicio no aparece el número de parte del filtro de aceite, o donde se puede checar para una HD 1996 de ese modelo te agradecería mucho me informaras gracias saludos desde México
