Busted FLH is infamous around these parts
Default 76 FLH
I've got a 76 FLH that vibrates so hard it pops off a gas cap every time I shift into 4th. Any ideas?

Yep, there are ways to balance these motors real easy. But it means attaching a tube with 26grams of mercury to the flywheel or the pulley.

Or get a tighter fit cap

I'm not a big motorhead. Can you explain that in a little more detail?

Default Damn bike won't start.
My 76 FLH won't start. It cranks over and over, but nothing. I thought it wasn't getting any spark, so I changed the ignition coi. And, again nothing.

Any ideas?

Firstly, sorry totally forgot to post up that link,, I'm on it

After cranking pull the plugs, if they ain't wet it's fuel, plus new coil but still check spark
