Thank you for being the only logical dude on youtube that doesnt give an hour long line of bullshit, before the how to.

I for one enjoy your videos as I've learned more from you than some of the self-help vids out there.

We have a 2005 Dyna Wide Glide, I believe that the procedure would be pretty close to the same for it. I can see and feel that there's a front end alignment issue with ours. It even pulls to the right when I let go of the handlebars when riding it.

@RevelatorAlf 2 года назад

Yep check your fork alignment and bearings too if say

You'd be long retired Alf, if ya had a quid for every time you've had that bike up in the air mate.👍🏍

Ha ha tell me about it

With 6-foot long extended forks?😄

@sportster88 Год назад

Thanks for the fork adjustment tips Alf! I never would have thought of that. Was John the Revelator an influence on your channel name?

More a twist on the bible but that in part too as I first call it that as well for a few videos when I started

Excuse me for this. I'm a car mechanic, for a long time, and I just can't see this making any difference. My M8 softail pulls left like many others (Australia) and recently I changed the fork springs to lower it. The forks are 39mm, and slide into the triple clamps which are roughly the same wide. Unless the forks are bent, if they slide easily up through both triple clamps, there is no way they could be misaligned. There is just no room for movement. Even if there was a fraction of movement, I doubt that would effect the bike in any noticable way. The only thing I can see that would effect how the bike corners is front wheel tilt to one side. Maybe one fork has more or less oil than the other? Maybe one spring is weaker than the other? After changing my fork springs I was very careful with oil level, fork height, etc. I noticed no difference, however the tyre is nearly worn out, so in my case I need a tyre first, then see if it stops pulling to the left or not. But even in saying all that, the front axle will hold the wheel perfectly upright. I want to fix my pulling issue, but I do not believe its the front causing it.

Alf,, doing this with single disk front brake will cause miss alignment (works oke with dual front disk)). I would suggest push bike to a wall and press wheel against it.

@RevelatorAlf 2 года назад

yes true but if its within parameters it's still fine, hence why there will be a difference pulling from either side

Can we get a close up for those who don’t know the terms yet😬(me)

@chrisvantassel8867 2 года назад

I have a 2020 Lower Rider S, from day 1 it has fought me on right hand turns, I have to push the right handle and pull the left to keep it from trying to stand up. It corners left perfectly. If I let go of the bars the bike falls to the left when go straight down the road......it gets fatiguing.

@RevelatorAlf 2 года назад

That is not set up properly. You need to check wheel and fork alignment as well as steering head bearing settings too by doing a pull test

@hundo123 2 года назад

hello my friend my 03 dyna turns farther to the left than right,is that normal? when turn to left signal almost hits tank but to the right its a good inch from signal to tank.
