    Hi,

    Sorry to hear of your spill. Can you post a picture of the damage? If the crankshaft took too much of a hit you may be in for a bigger repair than the ignition.

    Perhaps you should consider a set of case savers. They sure have saved me a lot of grief when I've been down.


    Thank you for your indulgence,

    BassCliff

      I hope not... I'll have pictures up this afternoon of the damage.

      Case savers? Can you point me in the direction of where I can find them?

          And now for the result after removing most of the broken stuff (this is a video, click it):

            Obviously I'm going to need the Master cylinder assembly, which sucks since I just had this one rebuilt. Any ideas if I can re-use the rebuilt parts in a different master cylinder? In effect, just swap out the housing for a new one?

            What about the exhaust? Any ideas where I can get just the "megaphone" portion of the exhaust and not have to buy the headers?

              Hi,

              OK, the crankshaft looks like it didn't take a hit. That's good. You should be good to go after replacing all the components under the ignition cover.

              This might come in handy: Where the ^%$#@! is TDC (Top Dead Center)?

              This is not exactly the repair you are doing, but might have some helpful tips for you:

              Install Dyna-S Ignition
              (by Mr. Poulsen)

              As for mufflers, you can pick up some add-ons from Dennis Kirk or some take-offs from your local Harley dealer and weld them onto your existing headers.

              Something like this: https://www.denniskirk.com/emgo/wide...rd/4401336.sku



              Or this: https://www.denniskirk.com/emgo/univ...prd/446993.sku



              They also have some universal shorty mufflers for about $30 each. Feel free to do some more shopping at this link: https://www.denniskirk.com/sport-bik...questid=150726

              On second glance that looks like a 4-n-1 exhaust. So that should actually make it easier to find a muffler to hang onto the headers.

              Thank you for your indulgence,

                  I have a spare master in black bagged up and inside the house in decent shape.
                  The crank looks fine.replace what is broke and pm me with some info, I will hook u up with a master no problem.
                  I expected way way worse than what I see in the pics. you made out fine I think
