for the past 25 years i have written a few hundred HOW TOs for various Motorcycles, Cars and Trucks i have owned...
over the rest of 2023 i plan on converting most of them to step by step videos to show you how certain things are done on the different vehicles and hopefully this will not only save you time BUT money too
AWESOME!!!! glad it helped you out.. i did the drivers side trans mount unfortunately my camera crapped out half way through the job... i will make a descriptive video explaining how i did it if you are interested
yes, that video is coming.. changed up how i decided to mount it and it worked out perfet... i have a couple others i have to edit first so it should be up by end of the month
Curious as to why you're going with the drilling holes route for the back rest instead of just using the suction cups that are already present?? Perhaps because it will not stick well to plastic?
Looked like he wanted to stop there and have a polite conversation. If I was with you, he may have gotten what he wished for. I need to come back for a visit and collect some more mirrors.
I want to get this for my Magna but I have a 7 inch headlight. Limited fairing options for 7 inch headlights. I figured i could dremel/sand the headlight opening to enlarge it to fit but doesn't look feasible on this.
unfortunately NO.. would take a lot of modifications to make this work for a 7" headlight.. not sure if memphis shades makes one for a 7" headlight but you may end up having to go with a cafe style... or look for a used fairing on ebay... i had a few Magnas back in the day and ran vetter rooster fairings.. they do pp up from time to time on marketplace AND ebay.. if you find one make sure it is complete with brackets AND WINDSHIELD as the screen itself is hard to find
Each to their own. But it does nothing for me and I don’t think it fits the lines of the sport glide at all. But good luck to you dude; it’s your bike and if it makes you happy then that’s all that counts.
This video was helpful, I saw your review on Amazon for this led light and looked you up and realized I have watched a couple of your other videos. I liked and subscribed, good content!
Just bought one from Temu £56 bargain price compared to what you normally pay in Britain, it has the same fixings, this vid has been a great help, cheers my friend.
the issue is the FP4 itself and NOT the iPhone .. join the vance & hines FP4 group on facebook if you want to see the problems 90% of the people are having with the POS
@thousanddollarmann7978 the problem is your on Facebook with all the other looser. If your not getting it call them and they will link to it and upload a map. Deal with them directly not with others on Facebook. Some things are not plug and play, you have to take the time to understand it and then the problems will go away. Good luck.
Any tips on getting it back on? I’m replacing with a white wall and I cant get it past the brake caliper, I’ve tried to just put it back under it normally and that wouldn’t work, I tried removing the caliper and the little mounting bracket but once I get the wheel back under it I can’t get it all to fit. I’ve even taken the belt guard off at this point. Pain in the butt!!
do you have it up on a bike jack? if so about a 1-2" thick board under the tire and then lower the bike down to line up the axle BUT reinstall the caliper assembly first as you cant do it with the tire installed... ALSO unfortunately since you removed the caliper you will need to realign it for brakes to work properly see this video for that procedure ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7nqGdIlZBxQ.html
@@thousanddollarmann7978 So I got my wheel back on and got to the brakes. I did his tip step by step, and now my pads are stuck to the rotor and the piston is fully out. I have no pressure in the brake pedal. Any tips? Forgive me I’m very new to this lol.
@@horsfe4therzfishin448 its tough for me to say without seeing it in person BUT i would start over.. you will have to take it back apart again ( IM SORRY ) as i know its a pain in the backside to get the wheel in... when you had the caliper itself off it sounds like you may have gotten air in the system... i would take it back off carefully compress piston after spraying down with brake clean once done , replace pads if they have any wear so you dont have to take it back apart again then remount the caliper and reinstall the wheel and then go through the caliper centering process again and bleed the system ... i have a video for flushing the brake systems..
I’m so angry and disgusted at the people in this neighborhood. No obeying the speed limit here AND the Stop signs. Thank God no one was hurt or killed.
you have no idea what you are talking about.. followed THEIR install directions to the letter.. nothing but problems with the PILE of EXCREMENT.. nothing but problem with tune itself and auto tune is 100% worthless... join the vance & hines FP4 group on facebook if you want to see the problems 90% of the people are having with the POS
sorry dude i apoligize .. i assumed everyone has heard the horns on the touring/softail/dynas from 2014 on up... as they are all the same part number...
batwing part # should be in video description MEM7011, mounting hardware is in the hardware install video but is 2320-0113... windscreen is the spoiler 9" sorry i dont have that part number off hand
forgot to add, make sure you subscribe to this channel.. i have abnout 25 more switchback specific HOW TOs that i will be uploading throughout this year
this is the 2.4L so only 4 across the top... but if you have the v6 and its due as you know its a PITA job so you just have to lay across the engine and just do it..
it is nearly same dimensions as a king tourpak NO its not coated in leather with faux straps it is actually made better as i have owned a king pak and it was not as sturdy as the givi
Hey mate great videos, can I ask how you got on with these. Q1,When they are full, are they easy to put in and take out of the panniers? Q2, as these are both the same size, which pannier do they fit best? Q3, is there any spare space in either pannier? Thanks in advance mate. 😊
hey thanks for the compliment.. i am far from a professional but do the best i can and its nice to hear that you enjoy them... with that said that have not had them on a trip yet , probably sometime in April as i have a weekend trip planned towards the end of the month but i do not foresee an issue with putting them in and taking them out due to the way the clam shells open i will try to remember to update how they work.. they are both the same size so you will have room .. let me add that i have a set of bags for my street glide too and when packed there is some room left over in them...
no i did not, that one was in good shape.. i believe it was replaced before we got the car.. i will be doing the side one under the battery as soon as the weather breaks
im a firm believer in doing it yourself.. just budget enough time in case you run in to an issue.. also i would spray some wd40 on all the mounting bolts and nuts a couple days before you plan on starting.. @@evanmoyer2486
This video is exactly what I needed to see. If I already have forward controls, would my job be the same? I have a 2022 softail standard. Could you provide a link to the aftermarket brackets and hardware?
hi, check my Sport glide play list as a couple videos prior to install are the parts used unboxing and the links for everything are in the description of those videos ... if you already have forwards on the bike this set up should work as the sport glide came stock with forwards
in my case it is... i have a habit of breaking bolts off... but i can tell you on those torqua clamps i see where people under tighten them because thy think they have reached the proper torque value.... seen many exhaust pipes laying on the side of the road heading to and from rallys
Thanks Just a hint don't film dark things in a dark garage with a background of an extremely bright outside, or all we see is... shadows and darkness. But I did learn. Thanks again.
NO, that would make it too tight.. you are looking for a happy medium so to speak... too tight you still get vibration, too lose you still got vibration but in a different RPM range
Great video, I’m certain this is the way I’m going to go for my 2023 Sport glide (we still have them 2022 & 2023 models here in the U.K.) I’ve removed the mini batwing fairing on mine and it’s never going back on again. Useless. Don’t see the point of it. Keep up the good work 👍🏻
AWESOME!!! thanks for the comment.. and YES i love the memphis shades over the mini batwing.. the shield does its job especially at highway speeds.. i wish they still made it for the USA if they did i would have had a brand new one in my garage
