I wouldn't have touched that bike. Bald rear tire, missing tins, too tall ape hangers, shotty workmanship. Those all add up to a young buck doing burnouts, fantasying about being a custom bike builder and playing an experienced wrench on weekends because his mom let him change the oil in her car when he was14. Then again, I'm an OG and know what I'm looking at.

Dude, I literally just bought a 1994 Dyna Wide glide with 20k miles on it for $3k cash straight off Facebook marketplace. Clear title. Rode it home, did full oil change, primary and spark plugs. Shes a top notch bike mechanicaly and cosmetically a 8.5 outta 10. ALWAYS TEST RIDE A BIKE BEFORE YOU BUY IT CASH. I wish you luck in the future with this money pit.

Sounds like you got a great deal. I'm looking for a evo myself, hopefully I can find something similar 👍

@@user-ho1lz4jg8t look for 92-99 Dynas, Softails or your easiest bet is going to be a evo sportster. Evo is definitely the way to go.

First of all, you need to buy yourself the right length cable. By yourself a front fender or you hate yourself when it rains. Also go through the whole Bike and make sure everything is tight. Those particular years are shakers. They’ll shake everything loose.

Sick bike! Good luck, sucks man some issues happened but Man, I miss them road trips picking up bikes a little further away then doing a whole new tune up on your own and getting that feeling.

Hey I noticed the the tire was in the wrong direction (rotation wise)

I bought a 87 1100 in marketplace and the thing wouldn't keep running. The owner even said its leaking because its old. The thing had a blown rocker gasket and 883 jugs not even a 1100 jugs.

looks great!!!! i wish you both well!!! ride safe my friend.

Just gave ya a follow, gonna keep up with everything ya do if ya make more videos. 👍🏼

Looks like a fun project but I definitely would’ve trucked it home.

I had one on my 1998 Electra Glide ,I couldn't figure out why it wouldn't run right until a Harley guru said to me P off the power commander ,I did & have had no problems since

Good luck with it ,I wld be getting rid of it it's getting old it's been butchered and showing signs of being a bottomless cash pit

Its getting old?! So if you had a 1965 Corvette you would just get rid of it instead of throwing new tires on it and tossing a few bucks into it to get it running good? Old is somtimes better than new. Especially the way things are made today.

Front tire is on backwards and the bearings should be the only thing spinning.

supportive , and interested GF is a MUST! You want starbuck? no problem baby😊

I got tired of dealing with the speedo cable and switched to a Amazon GPS speedometer

Nice looking bike. You're gonna need to go through that thing. That missing front fender is kind of a red flag.

I can see it's future all cleaned up pimpin.....

GF.... You better marry that girl. you see the way she looks at you

That front tire is on backwards also at 2:31 That arrow should point down.

Umm I just bought stage 5 1992 1200 sportster I’m completely happy with my purchase and yes I had some repairs to do but it is like new again. My advice is don’t buy unless you know how to fix them because they require it

Nice bike 🏍

Front tire was on wrong. Arrow on the side of the tire said so

I would be nervous about riding it, until I went through it.seems like the thing hasn't been kept up with.

What year is it

Whaat? Take it back!

For me is the1340 ccm Evolution the best Engine .... 👍💙

What year?

Bought many used bikes and l keep looking for a bike in stock condition. Too many backyard hacks cobbling shit together...like this one.

My guess, compensator needs to be replaced. Does it sound like a starter problem onces its been ridden for a bit? Or clunky went you try to start it? New compensator would fix it and you'll find neutral really easy.

@Jamescrev451 here were my symptoms. Cold start: was perfect. No issues. Rode for 10 to 15 miles. Stopped at the store or gas station. The restart hot was horrible. Clanking, starter acting like it was jamming. Or a big click and no power like my battery was low. Then started. Hard to find neutral. I was first told my starter clutch was bad. Nope, not it. The compensator springs collapsed. Installed a new comp and she was like new again. Zero issues.

@@Jamescrev451 Yup, without being there with a stethoscope to really pinpoint the knock. Sure sounds like the compensator springs are shot. Especially if that bike was beat on, which she has all the signs.

1:57 forgot the girlfriend was there, thought the gentleman was saying hello 2:38. With the front end up, spin the wheel and see if the nut moves with it

Hard to find N is that stupid heal toe shifter, I hate that thing. It's a nice bike,just needs a little love. If you got a good deal then keep and fix it.

Wheel bearings stuffed axle not supposed to spin , how long you been into bikes mate ? you'd be better off getting rid of that power commander rubbish ,it just piggy backs off the original ECU

I definitely did thank you

I would never buy a used bike and ride it home 3 hours, without putting wrenches on it. Do yourself a favor and buy a trailer.
