1990 Harley Davidson FLHS

Classic Bagger
 

Damn I like that blue.

• CV Keihin carburetor modified - slide drilled, idle mix screw unplugged,  needle jet replaced with #27094-88, idle jet 45,  main 185
• Rattling gearshifts: After looking at a new Road King, I did the same and cut a 3/4" ID rubber hose, 3/4" wide and slipped it over the metal collar between the gearshifts and the primary case to dampen the rattling
• Stage 3 engine work: shaved heads .050" to raise the compression to 9.2:1, EV27 cam, adjustable pushrods, Dyna 2000i ignition, Dynatek DC6-5 coils, Zippers air cleaner, Supertrapp 2-1 exhaust.  Sounds like an uncorked Ducati now.
  
• Replaced starter with All-Balls Racing 80-1001.
  
• Front belt-drive pulley came loose at 55,000 miles, replaced with a new Baker 32T long life pulley, new tranny nut lock plate..
• Replaced the Yuasa YTX 24HL with an Odyssey 680.  Replaced voltage regulator with CE-320.
• Tires: Tried the Dunlops, the Avons, the Bridgestone Spitfires, now on a set of matched Metzeler ME880 front and rear. 40-44psi.  Replaced the wheel bearings
