  The Feuling Billet Dipsticks are made In America and they vent excessive crankcase pressure from the oil tank on Harley Touring Models through a PCV style breather. Blow by is pressure that is forced past the rings and cylinder walls and ends up in the crankcase and then into the oil tank. All internal […]

“Here I go again trying to make something happen,” said John Grant of Hardtail Choppers. “We designed a replacement solid motor mount kit. It converts a rubber mount 2004 and up Sportster motors in stock or custom frames to solid mounting. Lots of reasons to do this. I won’t name them all, but they do

Here’s the link to Part 12: http://www.bikernet.com/pages/Mudflap_Girl_FXR_Part_12She_meets_SS.aspx Okay, so my Mudflap Girl FXR was running fine and I enjoyed every ride with the bare chassis, but I got a hair to treat the frame and powder coat some parts, but the corrosion treatment made the frame look almost black, and I didn’t want to build

We ran into the Reading Design group in Vegas at Bikefest. They had an extensive display to demonstrate their latest product. It’s a motorized adjustable power floorboard system designed exclusively for Harley-Davidson motorcycles. This patented innovation allows the rider to adjust their floorboards from the stock position to a full forward control position or anywhere

  Well it’s getting that time again, warm weather and beautiful riding, long trips to freedom! Aaaah, Summer! My buddy Andy and I were talking about our annual upcoming ride to Laughlin and he decided he needed to change his riding position for the trip (old guys ya know). So, what to do? Change the

Editor’s Note: Over the years we hear bitching about guys using trailers to attend events, but often there’s no other way to haul a family and all your gear to Sturgis or Daytona. Hell, as long at a brother or sister can make it and have a good time, I don’t care how they get

Not too long ago, my good friend Timbo approached me with a proposition, restore his 1964 Harley FL, I agreed. Problem was, it’s in a box, literally! So after a brief discussion on exactly what we wanted to do, how much it would cost and the possible value at the end of the rainbow, I

The Klock Werks NavBag is a multifunctional windshield bag made for Street Glides, Electra Glides and Trike models. The innovative bag features a slick magnetic closure and a special compartment that securely displays your GPS, cell phone, MP3 player or other device behind a protective screen. The screen is capable of transmitting the electrostatic energy

This kit is easy to use, easy to wire and a boat load of fun! When Rivera-Primo came out with the Mini & Mighty Magnum™ HedLED™ Headlights in 2008, they never thought that they would turn out to be as big a hit as they have. The integral LED turn signals are trick, cosmetically cool

Over the past three years our team at Biker Pros has produced over 35 custom bike shows. We seen 1000+ custom bikes from Los Angles to Daytona, and we noticed a major critical custom bike element, the wheels. Over and over a dominating competitive factor in a custom show are wheels and one brand consistently

I started off intent on just check the cam chain tensioners on my 2009 FLHTC, and then thought, what the hell. As long as it’s apart, I might as well upgrade to the Zipper’s Red Shift 525-HS cams. The 525-HS cams are a set of bolt-in units, and they allow me to use my stock

Well it’s that time! Now that Daron Ray of Hazzardous Customs is finished striping the tins to bare metal and finishing them with 1964 Highland Green from the Ford Motor Company (House of Kolor match), I can finally get the old girl back on the road. I figured as long as I had the bike

If you are thinking about upgrading the cams in your Twin Cam Harley or even if you are just taking it apart to service and or replace the chain tensioners, it is highly recommended that you change the factory bearing with a set of new Torrington bearings. The simple reason contains reliability and strength factors.

Here’s the link to Mudflap Girl Part 11: http://www.bikernet.com/pages/Mudflap_Girl_FXRs_part_11_The_First_Road_Test.aspx My son’s Mudflap Girl FXR is running and partially broken in. I even, finally, dialed in the Wire Plus Speedometer, and it’s working. I wish I knew what I was doing wrong, but that puppy works like a champ. I enjoy the tightness of the display

We have a goofy Shovelhead in the Bikernet shop called the 1928 Shovelhead. It has 21-inch wheels front and rear in a Paughco rigid frame, but some 1928 elements were used, including the re-pop semi-flat sided tanks, the rear fender and perhaps the seat. The bike was conceived by Bandit the bastard, built by the

Tail Gunner checking in! Well it’s winter again, so I thought I’d give my old Softail a face lift. She’s been a good old gal, a survivor of many a road trip. But the years are starting to show, paint chips, fading and rock dings everywhere, plus the old pin stripping is looking a little

Over the course of the next nine issues, IronWorks is pleased to bring you a series of articles from S&S highlighting bikes built with components from their Flathead Power division.

I suspect some are going to question why I would remove a reasonably new H-D automatic primary chain adjuster on my 2009 FLHTC and install a Baker job that must be manually adjusted. There is meaning to my madness. The automatic chain adjuster was designed to remove any primary chain slack, by noticing flex in

This is an interesting one. For years, we installed True Track systems to prevent touring Harleys from the negative effects of rear-end sway. The treacherous wobbling can actually lead to devastating high-speed wobbles. Most bikers disliked riding touring H-D motorcycles at high speeds, and wobbling as they passed 18-wheelers, when they were supposed to be
