Ok, I am trying to put my 76 FXE back together after I had it stored and "people" "borrowed indefinately" parts off my bike.

First things first is that I am not a mechanic, I have the SM for my bike but many of the parts are aftermarket or not original.

My first ? is about S&S Super Carburators. I cannot get my bike to fire at all. I have spark, fuel to the carb but do not know if the carb is doing what it needs to do. I have to kick start it as I all I get when I push the start button is a simple click. My bike sat stored for three years until I finally have been able to work on it.

I know that my question may not be specfic enough but I am at a loss as to how to explain what I need or the numerous problems I am having putting this bike back together. I am a first time HD...

Hello fellow bikers! Just bought A new FXDL and already want to change the front-end to a wide-glide. Any recommendations and how much trouble it might be? Also would put mild apes on it and was wonder if the wiring could accomodate. Thanks

I have a new FXDXI Dyna Super Glide Sport and I need to know where I can get Black pipes or who powder coats them? Any suggestions? Colorado based!

That had to be fun!
