Hello all,
I think I was part of this site 20+ years ago and picked up a lot of good info regarding a 76 shovel FXE I was disassembling/reassembling. Rode it for a number of years, then parked it in my garage when it started running terrible and never had the time to tear into it. Now I am finally at it. I am back in HTT and trying to learn as much as I can as I go along. This time I have completely torn down the transmission and am in the process of rebuilding, and have the engine top end completely torn down. I am hardtailing the frame. I know, I know, but it is going to be the way ...I... want it.

howdy, welcome from Montana... I'm sure you'll find plenty of help regardless the direction your build is going :chop:
Hello, and Welcome from CT. Many years back I had a 76' FXE. I rode that Bike from CT to California without any glitches. I wish I still had it. Good Luck with Your Project.
Welcome from Texas!

Huh. I bought this off a dealer from CT on an ebay auction. I thought it had been traded in by the owner. It would be quite the coincidence if it were yours... Haha. I'll try to find a photo of what it looked like when I got it. If yours had Andrews tranny gears and cam, Wiseco pistons, and Velva Touch tappets and blocks... This might be it. LOL
No, I don't think that could have been Mine. I sold it to a Guy in Washington State when I was kicking around up there. I sold that to Him to buy a leftover 1980 FLH in 1981 from a Dealer there. And I never did anything to the FX as far as upgrades except for the Carb and Pipes. But You never know.
