Practice English Speaking&Listening with: PART 5 HARLEY FXE SHOVELHEAD CHOP PROJECT | King and Queen Springer

Started out with this nice 1974 74" FXE superglide.

It was in pretty fantastic shape aside from the

Fallover on the right side. I rode it home 50 miles after

I bought it and it didn't skip a beat.

I shipped the frame to haifleys and got it back a few weeks later.

They added a cool feature to their hardtails with the

Rear trans crossmember cover and lower fender mount.

I decided to try and use as many OE harley parts

As I can on this build, and since I'm running a spool

Up front it only seemed appropriate to go juice drum.

For this build I'll use a 67-72 setup on a midstar hub

To take advantage of sealed bearings.

I had to buy two different sets of OE juice setups

So I could get both an original chrome drum and

Late backing plate. I also got a 67-72 axle setup complete w spacers,

Which I will probably need to modify. The haifley tail has HCI

Axle plates w the mechanical stay. Since I'm running juice

I am relocating the brake stay mount to the underside

Of the axle plate; it was also causing interference with the

Backing plate, so it was a necessary job.

I freshened up the backing plate w a new wheel cylinder.

Shoes look relatively new so they are good to go.

For anyone using a 67-72 juice setup, replacement

Bearings use OEM #8503RS and replacement wheel

Cylinders can be found by Raybestos under part #WC9004.

Here are the headlights I'm going to use.

These are old Hella fog lights off a Porsche or VW or something.

Pretty common, nothing too special.

I'll make a headlight bracket that will tuck these in nice and tight.

Erick from Jakes Customs painted it and offered it for sale in classifieds.

I jumped on it bc I wanted to try the narrow sportster tank.

I struggled to find an original horseshoe tank in decent condition,

So I picked up a repop. I think this is older, maybe from the 90s or something.

I am building up a set of wheels using polished 18/21 Morads

On a bob's triple peak spool hub with 5/8 bearings and SS

Spokes and nipples. As mentioned previously, rear wheel

Will be using a repop 67-72 midstar hub in chrome.

I bought a set of Firestones for this build,

Because I wanted to try the ANS as well as that cool

New 2.75" front ribbed tire they're making,

But after 3 months of waiting, I said fuck that trendy

Tire and just ordered Avons instead.

I measured trail out to 4", so it shouldn't be that bad in the handling dept.

The fender is one of those 4-3/4" manta ray fenders from lowbrow.

I'm actually super pleased with it. Very burly, and the fit was spot on.

I am working to get the fender and sissy all buttoned up

So I can get to the seatpan next weekend.

First order of business was to get the rear

Wheel centered in the frame.

The late juice drum sets the wheel ab a 1/4"

Or so to the non drive side, so I dished the

Wheel over to get everything square.

I finished the seatpan. Started off making the seat

Section out of 1/8". I decided on 4 mounting points for this seat

The front mount is just a 3/8" tongue to a mini hat top bung,

Then cut a section of 1/8" to run up the sissy bar.
