Helping a veteran get back on his ride. The problem is he's lost his left arm serving his country. I'm attempting to create a right hand drive by putting the controls on one side. The clutch & brake I have figured out. It's getting all the electrical components on 1 mount, plus keep it user friendly. Any suggestions?

Standing behind my Fatboy and looking at the rear fender, it appears to be more to the left side of the bike. Not much, but noticiable. Is there anyway this can be adjusted? Maybe replace the fender struts? Anyone have or has had this problem?

I have a 2004 Fatboy...I need to replace the Headlight housing ( which has a dent on the back of it ). My question is, when you buy a headlight housing does it come with or without the wiring harness ? Going to a Harley dealer in a few days and find out, but really really curious now. Thanks.

Ok I am very new to this and the question I ask may be very basic but like I said I am new.


I picked up a 1988 1200 Sporster for a dream price. Then I realized it had issues.

I the charging system is not working. I tracked this down to the stator. How hard is it to replace the stator on this bike? Would be my first question.

Are there any other known issues with this bike or motor that I should know before I put money into it?

Any help or information would be much appreciated

I've almost decided to go with the V&H Pro HS 2 into 1 for my '03 Ultra Classic along with the Stage 1 filter upgrade and purchase the DynoJet Power Commander for the re-map. Anyone have any experience they'd like to give on this combo? I've done a lot of research and this seems to be one of the best ones as I'm interested more in performance, sound is a secondary consideration. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

(BTW, Direct Parts will be where I buy from!)
