Pretty good detail. Wish I had this 12 years ago when I converted my 87 FXR, well done.

Thanks for making this video. I have a springer and it is almost impossible to find informative videos for this

" He went into the Rhubarb a little bit " Best explanation ever !! :)

i'm happy the eazy company sent me here i super dig youalls style!

I'm definitely buying one

Nice Job!

I’ve got the same bike with hydra glide ( wide glide) front end, I tossed the 21 years ago for a 16 fat boy wheel & fender, I’d like to install a springer front end & keep my 16” wheel & fender, is there a fender adapter for 2 parallel mounts that are on my legs my paint is close to the ladies ride

curious on where one could find a new complete front 21'' rim and hub for the springer i have a 1988 fxsts

hello would you happen to know which front springer fork I would need to buy for a 2008 Harley crossbones ? thank you,

Respectfully, that’s a FX style springer replacement, not FL…. Amazing video; thank you.

Respectfully, it's AN FX style springer, not A FX style springer : )

Love it 5:50

Was wondering what tool you used to remove the races. That motion pro that you're using won't work on a 2001 Springer.

Would have been very helpful if you could have shown how you pulled the old bearing races out of the neck.

Hi great useful video,, I have a 2002 Flsts,, can you recommend what Greece to use for the head bearing please.

General purpose grease should do the trick

On the 2000 harley-davidson heritage springer flsts is there a special tool for.the finder my new finder did not come with the spacer bearings

Not sure about a special tool. Can you give me more information? If you're looking for the spacer bearings they don't come with the springer. If you need spacer bearings you can only get them from Harley-Davidson.

Awesome video. Do you guys sell specific Springer front wheels? Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't the hubs on Springer wheels designed for correct spacing? For example, isn't a front wheel on an FXST Softail different than the front wheel on a FXSTS Softail Springer? I'm looking for a black 21" wheel for my 95 Bad Boy and am having trouble understanding in all. Thanks

@@ThrottleAddictionCo Thank you. Would like to put these on my 2007 fxstc. 👍🏻

Where can I find that style of handlebar?

thanks for the vid! Did you grease just the bearing or do you fill the whole neck with grease as well?

I just grease the bearings really well and put a little bit in the neck

Great video bud, I want to change my 2000 fat boy over to a springer. So does this kit basically have everything I need? Bearings, risers, riser bushings,etc,etc. now,do I need to replace my caliper to fit the new brake stay? Thanks much appreciated!

Yes if you're converting from a Hydragilde front end to this springer everything you need comes with the springer except you will need a new caliper and a new wheel

@@ThrottleAddictionCowhy the new wheel? I’m trying to gain info about the swap. Is it because the 3.5” wheel is to wide?

Nicely done professional video. Since you have experience with both aftermarket and OEM HD springers, do you know if you can get aftermarket spring / shock sets that would work to replace the springs on the OEM. My crossbones of course comes with the black and chrome front end. Almost every peace of chrome is tarnished/ rusted, wanting to do a rebuild and maybe fully black it out

Short answer is yes, we can get most of the replacement components for Softail springers, only in chrome though and they are often out of stock. Email us exactly what you're looking for at info@throttleaddiction.com and we can see if we can help you out.

Great vids tanks. Hey this is completely unrelated but I couldnt find a vid or google search discussing springer frontends. I just bought an 06 FXSTSI with 19k miles. Went thru all the maintenance and yesterday took her out 4 a test ride. I noticed the frontend dipping all the way when i hit my front brakes. 19k i wouldnt think the shock would be worn out but I could be wrong so Just wondering your thots? IN 96 I built custom springer with a Paughco 6 over and it never dipped that bad. Maybe because the angles? Anyway any info would be greatly appreciated :-)

Don’t hang your caliper like that! The hose is designed to stretch outward with volume and pressure they’re not meant to be stretched lengthwise. Use a bungee cord! Good vid though!

Why click the tongue wrench 3 times in aviation they would make us break the torque and do it again ,only one click

No grease

Throttle addiction…. Can’t you have anyone else do your videos?? Someone with a better voice and personality… plus a person that simply tells us the “how to” and not the senseless babble!! A 27 minute video can be 10 minutes tops!
