My Electra Glide Standard FLHT enricher cable, plastic junk, crap, where it mounts to bracket at Knob breaks about every other year. If its not broken it wont stay where you set it. I was told that you can by after market replacment much better quaility. Where, I have searched every place I can think of. Stock carb has been recalabrated, runs nice with shot gun straight pipes and steel baffels. Happy with preformance, dont want to change carb. Any suggestions. JP

Does anyone know if you can put a wideglide front end on a 2005 springer softail is the frame the same as a softail standard?

I'm getting ready to start doing performance mods to my 2003 FXDX and would like some opinions regarding the following:

Vance and Hines ProPipe HS 2-1 vs. Thunderheader 2-1 - has anyone used both and which provides the best street performance? On down the pike I am planning on going to a 95 kit when the funds allow and don't want to have to buy another set of pipes.

If I go with the VH pipes, should I use their carb kit or go with the HD SE kit?

Anyone got any beginning settings on the carb adjustments that have worked in this type of setup?

I have the stock air cleaner on the bike (it's a 2003 anniversay bike) and it has a 2003 anniversay air cleaner trim medallion that I would like to keep. Are there any mods I can do to the stock air cleaner in order to keep it, but not...

Just changed out bars and switch housings and need to take off the brake line and make a couple of bends. Can someone tell me what the proper tool is for the brake line bolt at the m/c (Dyna dual disc).

Thanks

Recently I bought a custom bike. Ever since I bought it has been hard to start. Now it wont start at all. It turns very briefly and then hangs up. I have replaced the starter, the bendix gear and the battery. Its a 96in S&S. It acts like its out of time. Anybody know of a manual to show me how to time this motor. Or can anyone tell me how to do it? No points or condensor.
Thank You Quigley
