RE: High Torque-starter install for the ShovelHead
What year is your bike Jeff?
in V twin 2 piece heat shield set for 1970 --84 flh vt no. 30-0292 no image in the site but in the 2007 catalog page 637 theres a picture........
.......They produce 2 sets of shield that I know of, so have the length measurement of that area of the pipe handy before you call.

that battery ISNT needed --- http://www.ebay.com/itm/DRAG-SPECIAL...7b3287&vxp=mtr -- this one lasted me for 4 years and even in super cold weather it never fails to spin over ---
accell stuff is PURE JUNK!!!
the housing on the starter needs to be clearanced for an easier fit - you WILL pull it apart if you ever try to remove it after its been in the bike -- not much just where you can pull it apart with ease -- you have to add electrical grease to the "O" rings and grease to the starter gear --
the relay like that ISNT needed its way to big --- http://www.ebay.com/itm/STARTER-RELA...61ecbf&vxp=mtr -- much easier to install and super small --
i use the battery cables you get from autozone -- they are 100% copper -- bend the ends to a 90 degree --

racing solenoid?? lol whatever-- anyways -- a regular solenoid works fine -- just stay away from the accell ones -- the regular "on the handle bars" starter button is the best -- those "im a cool biker" items are junk -- custom stuff like that looks cool till you find yourself in a situation like on a hill and the bike kills and you have to #1 hold the clutch in -- # hold the front brake #3 try to make that custom junk work before you fall over--- lol lol even the old trick of the bent hacksaw blade on the solenoid is a dumb idea -- i take more of those "ideas" off and revert back to what works -- the button on the handle bars --
