SOURCE: What is the stock carburetor's mm Bore on a 2003 HD FLHR RoadKing

Since I haven't ever heard of an FLHR-Y, I can only guess at the size of the carb. If the engine is the standard twin cam 88" engine, the carb should be a 40mm version. But, if the engine is one of the "factory hopped up jobs" such as a 103" or somthing else, I have no idea of the size of the carb.

I'd start with a #50 slowjet. You will probably get backfires on decel with no back pressure in the exhaust.

SOURCE: how to install starter motor

Most of the time a standard starter motor works fine with a stroker motor. The stroke of the motor has nothing to do with it being harder to start but the compression does. If you're running 10:1 compression, you may need a stronger starter motor. However is I just had the engine built, I wouldn't mess with the starter until I had to. I've built lots of 89" Evo's with 10:1 compression and the stock starter started them all just fine. Starters are expensive and I wouldn't replace the stock unit until I had to.

To change the motor, you'll have to remove the outer primary so you can take the starter jackshaft loose. Disconnect the battery first. I know you would like to keep all your fingers. Then, from the right side, remove the exhaust system and everything else that might be in your way. Take the battery cable loose from the starter motor at it's connector. There are two large bolts that hold the starter in, remove them and the starter comes right off.

Good Luck
Steve

SOURCE: Engine popping,and will not idle.

Hello,
Your FLHR may need to have the carburator cleaned out. The fuel that we are getting now is very unstable and and can gum up very quickly. the idle or slow circuit in the carb is very small and can be pugged up easily. Removeing the carb and cleaning it out is about an hour and a half job to do properly. The fuel in the tank should be drained out and replaced with fresh fuel also. some people will simply siphon the old fuel out of the tank. the carburator is delicate and precision so it should only be repaired by a qualified technician. beware of the " miracle carb cleaners" they often do more damage.

Instaling a S&S super E on my 1998 roadking (flhrci) It has a Bob Woods w6 cam, ****** mufflers and a good cleaner set up. What size jets should I put in it?

Put a number 28.5 slow jet and a number 72 main jet in and try it. Depending on your particular setup and altitude in your area you may have to move up or down a size on either jet. If the bike surges and you cannot hold a steady speed at about 40 mph, go up on the slow jet. It it starts spitting through the carb at high speed, go up on the main. If it feels sluggish when you roll the throttle on wide open, maybe go down on the main. Remember, it's better to be too rich than too lean. Lean is mean but too lean burns pistons. Refer to the S&S installation instructions for guidance. If you don't have the instructions, go to S&S's site under the Tech section and download the installation instructions for the carb. Go here and download instruction sheets 51-1013.

The previous owner had the carbs jetted I don't know what size he added or whatever. But everything else is stock. The problem I'm having is the bike runs really bad and the fumes are bad when idling but...

Hi there,

The jets are for increased performance but the jets installed must be in relation to the pipe used. An open pipe would require larger jets. If the jets came with the pipe when the previous owner purchased it, then it should work. My advise would be to tune it up, sync the carbs, and time the sparks.

If all else fail, ask the previous owner to provide the stock jets and replace it. Stock jets along with the stock pipe will almost always run the first time. Sync the carbs and tune timing. If you have it all running smooth, from there you can do upgrades like stage 1 jet kit or purchase a performance exhaust.

Please do let me know if any of this was helpful,
I'll follow it up should my suggestions fail,

Overheating

  • First I would go get stock plugs from the dealer. Plugs with incorrect heat range can cause overheating.
  • Drain the oil and replace the oil filter. Refill the crankcase with fresh oil. Also be sure exhaust gasses are getting through the exhaust pipes okay
  • Check the spark timing. and clean or replace the air filter.
Your mechanic probably installed carb rebuild kits in each carb. This is good but the correct main jets may not have come in the generic kits he bought. Too small a main jet can cause overheating. Pull the float bowl of whichever carb is easiest to get to. Remove the main jet and look to see what size it is. There will be a number i.e. 3.0 stamped on the jet. Call your dealers parts department and ask what size main jet is stock. The smaller the number, the smaller the jet. Re-jet the carbs if needed.

I hope you can rate this solution as a "FixYa". Thanks!
