Bob and Mark remove a stock Harley-Davidson headlight and passing lamp set-up to install a custom set. Bob notes this is the time to switch out the headlight bulb if need be and keep all your stock wiring intact, don’t just cut it out. From there we go to the bench to wire the custom passing lamps set-up. Mark helps strip, cut, solder and shrink wrap the new wire connections. They install the new setup making sure all connectors work and that the hardware is tight. Nacelle installed and all parts cleaned they show us how the new set-up looks and operates.

You should purchase gapped, Harley-only spark plugs which usually come with a gap of 38-43,000th of an inch. After applying some anti-seize to the threads of the new plugs, you can thread them into the cylinder by hand and tighten them with a torque wrench and you’ll be good to go.
