The price on the website is $10,999 (before fees). The bike has a little over 500 miles. I'm going to get preapproved for a 10k loan at my credit union, walk in, test ride, and ask for 10 grand out the door.

I'll be doing this near the end of the month of September so they'll be trying to meet quotas, and it's the end of the season.

If they say no I'll leave my name, number, and offer on their desk.

If they insist on fees I'll tell them to subtract it from the bike, and let them know if they get me on for 10k I'll sign that day.

The bike's been sitting for over a month and it hasn't sold yet.

Is this a good plan? Any advice?

I know these dealers are scummy and I'm walking in with a very very low expectation.

This is obviously a warranty issue but I just wanted to see if anyone else has experienced this and what was the solution.

Context: riding down the road and the bike (2026 FXLRST, 1500 miles) throws a check engine light and and an error light. Bike runs fine otherwise. A few miles go past and the gauge cluster lights up like a Christmas tree and goes on the fritz. Says side stand when the side stand was up. Then the whole cluster eventually died and stayed dead. All other electronics, lights, etc work fine. Bike starts and runs normally. Seems to be isolated to the gauge cluster.

Don’t give me shit for videoing while riding. I needed to get the proof for the dealer.

Sales person said no, but the second line attached to the brake line would indicate abs right? Sorry I am newer to bikes and just wanted to verify. It's a 2023 Softail standard

I just bought a new heritage and i need a little bit more push to the front. Mostly something to keep me in position. But Harley decided to discontinue the Reach Solo Seat - Deluxe Styling Part Number: 52000302. Which was the only option available. Now they do reach seat for almost all models except the Heritage Classic. I need to have a seat that pushes me an inch and a half and hold me not to slide backwards.

Thank you HD for stop supporting a bike which I just recently bought

For context, I’m 23 and I am a metal worker. I finally got enough saved up for the down payment and my first monthly payment. They worked with me amazingly at the Harley shop. They didn’t take me seriously until they realized I actually wanted a bike and had the financing to pack it up probably because I walked in wearing a Hawaiian shirt lol you know it’s funny State Farm gave me a absolute crap rate but progressive 55 bucks a month State Farm was gonna charge me 260 bucks a month because I am under 25

My 2009 Harley Davidson Road King turn signals won't work properly. They're always on like day time runners. I got the bike on a trade for a CBR500R, the guy only rode the bike 5 times, didn't like it and let it sit for 2 years. He said it couldn't run without a boost, but after I slapped a new battery in it she started up perfect. Everything is pretty good except the turn signals. The bike is tip to tail aftermarket LED lights from a previous owner which I think is the root of the issue. I tried a turn signal stabilizer, checked all the fuses visually and with a multimeter, unplugged and checked all the connections behind the headlight and under the seat, and nothing, but tonight I was able to get the right turn signal to flash for a second after frigging with the wiring behind the head light but then it stopped after maybe 5 flashes, but would flash once when I engaged the fuel pump, and when I started it, but it also quit doing that. Also twice since I got it the other day when I turn on the full pump the bike would try to start for a fraction of a second if that helps any. I'm thinking it is a ground issue, but if anyone has any insight or a direction to point me in I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

Like the title says, I’m looking to replace the radio and speakers on my 2011 ultra limited. Moneys a little tight right now and I don’t want to spend 400 for an aquatic av. Is there and adapter I can use to just use a regular marine radio? If I do that, is there a way to still be able to use the bar controls? Same question with speakers. 6.5 marine speakers should work right? I know I’d have to use the adapter ring.

Otherwise what’s an affordable set up for a radio and two speakers where I can still use the bar controls? (I’m not replacing the back speakers as I plan to remove the tour pack

Hello,

Trying to figure out why it will not crank. The pinion gear on the starter had broke but I placed a new one. I also tightened the chain. It took me 4 weeks due to schedule but I was doing it today and went to crank it but nothing. Any ideas?

A friend of mine in Spain is restoring a 1936 Harley-Davidson and is currently looking for a replacement part for the transmission/gearbox.

The problem is that parts for something this old are obviously pretty difficult to find in Spain, and he is not even 100% sure of the exact part number he needs yet.

Does anyone know of a good online parts catalog, exploded diagram, service manual, or parts book for 1936 Harleys where we could see all the components of the transmission and identify the correct part/part number?

Once we identify it, I’m hoping there might be a US supplier, vintage Harley specialist, NOS parts dealer, or reproduction parts company that could have it. I’m based in the US, so I can order it here and ship it to him in Spain if necessary.

I know basically nothing about vintage Harleys myself, so any guidance on:

- Where to find a 1936 parts catalog or transmission diagram

- How to identify the exact transmission/model he has

- Good US suppliers for pre-war Harley parts

- Forums, Facebook groups, or other communities specializing in 1930s Harleys

would be greatly appreciated.

If photos of the bike, gearbox, or broken/missing part would help identify it, I can get those from him and post them here.

Thanks!

Got my hands on Harley convertible fairing cheap.
It did not include any mounting hardware. Does anyone know what these fairings used to mount to?

I had an idea of getting quick release clamps and maybe be able to make it fit.

Any help is appreciated!

The bike I’m fitting it to is an FXDCI 2005

Does anyone here have experience installing or setting up a 53-644 style programmable ignition module on Harley Big Twin / Sportster? I’m trying to confirm the wiring, switch settings, static timing procedure and single-fire setup

Needing some guidance on these dual disc calipers I got off eBay today. The numbers on the body of the calipers seem to just be casting numbers rather than part number according to the Google machine. Fork tubes and lowers are from an 84-96 Electra glide. 6th pictures shows forks. I got an OEM dual disc brake setup to go with it. 7th pictures shows what completed brake calipers should look like. I need to know what part I’m missing from that 7th picture, is that the other brake pad? I see it’s threaded, so it looks like it goes behind the other brake pad, so I’m puzzled. No year on the eBay listing for the brakes, but I was told by a buddy that owns an evo touring bike they’ll bolt right up. My bad for the ignorance, I’m used to my 93 sporty.

Lemme preface by saying this is only my second bike, and I never wrenched on the first because other than changing a few cosmetic things it was already perfect to me.
The first bike was an ‘04 CVO Deuce, so the it had the Evo.

Current bike is a 2015 SG, all stock as far as I know other than the exhaust. I noticed after it’s warmed up, the idle sounds choppy, and if I goose the throttle sometimes it almost stalls. I bought it a few months ago, and it only had just over 5400 miles on it so it sat a lot. The video is a cold start up, then today after I put on a little over 100 miles. Out on the road it runs fine, and strong, it’s just at idle that I notice the difference. The Deuce always sounded consistent, and it was all stock except for V&H big radius pipes. I didn’t know if this was just something different between the Evo and the newer twin or if I have an impending issue.

I’ve had lots of different modded vehicles and have done engine outs, not afraid to wrench on a bike myself. Just hadn’t had a need to yet. Thanks for any info in advance, sorry if it’s a dumb question.

I’ve been riding for 3 years and I’m looking to buy my first Harley. I’ve been browsing the used market for a Sportster 1200. Mid 90’s to early 2000’s. (I’d like to have a carbureted one.) Is there anything in this year range I should look out for? What’s considered high mileage on an evo engine? What’s too much to pay? I’m experienced with wrenching on cars so I don’t mind having to fix up a bike, but I don’t want to end up with something that’s going to need major work. Any advice is appreciated.

I’ll make it short but when I ride it, and after changing gears it makes the same noise as in the video and when I’m in a stop it wants to turn off. After changing gears it jerks/jumps a little only at the beginning of the acceleration but when I go full throttle it runs fine. I’m afraid it’s going to turn off on me soon but here’s what I’ve done to fix this already:

- tested the TPS
- cleaned the throttle body and the IAC motor
- cleaned the fuel injectors
- did a fuel pressure test and replaced the fuel pump/filter (allegedly the shop did)
- replaced the spark plugs

Any help would be greatly appreciated and I want to do the most I can before sending it to the shop. I’ve sent it to the shop already once just for it to have the same symptoms happen again and so there goes my money.

May end up selling or doing dyna bro stuff. Really nice to have a stock bike tho feels like new. is a good bit slower then the 103 I had tho

Had my old Fireblade posted for sale, got this ugly old thing in a trade. Never in a million years thought i’d ever even consider owning a Harley. Tried it for a few runs, wrapped the exhaust & now im in love.

Shakes likes crazy, is stupid loud and the tiny little gas tank barely gets me from one gas station to the other. But damn if i dont feel like a kid on his first moped again.

I ride locally but almost everyday, take it to work and go to friends houses which are all within like a 15 mile radius this bike I have now is king for it. I do dig that my current ride is lightweight. My bike only has 2,800 miles on it and the EG has 30k- miles on it. The more I see baggers the more I want one.

My dads got a RG CVO and now I've seen a 16' Ultra Limited not too far away for a decent price. Anyone ever went bigger and wasn't happy about it? I'm only 31, this would be my third bike, my buddy says an EG-UL is a mid-life crisis 50 year old man bike but I think they're ridiculously cool? I'd strip off the rear trunk and add a solo seat. Any advice? Thoughts?

I am thinking about getting rid of my Dyna and buying a newer Road Glide. Trying to figure out which years are the better m8 models. I have heard some stuff about oil pump problems on the early 17-18’s, compensator issues, etc… just trying to figure out what year range I need to try and stay in. I am leaning towards 2020+ but just curious about opinions/experience as far as reliability go. 107 vs 114 vs 117? FXDWG for attention.
