Bike Talk motorcycle forum

I was wanting to know if anyone had any information(tech tips, performance tips, etc.) for 84-85 softails. I have an 84' and i love it. All my buddies ride newer bikes, so I'm the only one with a 4-speed and a kicker. The only thing I've really done to the bike is put on a 99 cv carb and 2" drag pipes.

I am getting ready to install a set of Vance&Hines Big Radius pipes on my 2004 Fat Boy (EFI). The Mech doing the work for me tells me to get the best preformance I will need to install a TFI fuel adjustment (?), and a high flow airfilter kit (Harley). Is there anything else I will need or should consider?

I know this is a opion question, but what the heck. I finally talked the wife into letting me get a new bike. I like the wide glide, it fits well but the standard soft tail is around 3-4 thousand less. The money really is not to much the issue, but I hate to waste it.

So which one????? Any why

Thanks

Have a 1981 Harley FXEF I am rebuilding, I have excessive play in the front wheel causing disk's to rub on front lower forks. Any ideas on correction, please let me know. p.s. also looking for crossovers, any ideas....
