Harley-Davidson Softail description

For sale is a 2004 Harley-Davidson Softail Deuce (FXSTDI). The bike has a fuel injected 1450 cc twin cam 88b engine and a 5-speed transmission, and has approximately 8300 miles on it.

The 1999 - 2006 Harley twin cam engines had a well-known issue with the cam chain tensioner. The chain tensioning system in these engines used plastic “shoes” riding on the cam chains. In a number of instances at varying mileages, the spring-loaded plastic cam chain follower fails and shreds plastic material that fouls the rotary gear oil pump, cutting off oil flow to the engine and creating an expensive repair bill. The recommended fix for the issue is the replacement of the tensioner with a hydraulic tensioner. (2007 and later engines use the hydraulic tensioner.)

For peace of mind, I installed the Screamin' Eagle Hydraulic Cam Chain Tensioner Plate Upgrade Kit 25824-11, which includes a hydraulic tensioner, a high flow oil pump, and a billet cam support plate. The oil pump increases the oil supply by 23% and scavenging by 50% compared to the original pump and reduces operating temp of bearings to improve bearing life. Retail price of the kit was $499.95 (installation not included). At the same time the upgrade kit was installed, I had a Screamin' Eagle Stage 2 EFI Kit 29490-99A (stage 2 cam/ air cleaner) installed. (I believe the kit used SE203 cams). To complement the cam upgrade, I also installed a Vance and Hines two-into-one exhaust, and a Cobra Fi2000 PowerPro fuel injection auto tuner (retail $599.95) for continuous precise fuel tuning.

Other upgrades to the bike include:

-HD oil cooler
-LED turn signals- front signals relocated
-HD LED brake light 69367-07
-Run-Brake-Turn light module
-Custom HD front wheel
-Luggage rack/ backrest

I believe the bike is in excellent mechanical and cosmetic shape. If you would like a local mechanic to inspect the bike, I will be happy to facilitate the inspection.

Please contact me with any questions or requests for additional pictures.

Church of MO: 1997 Harley-Davidson Heritage Softail Classic

Sun, 17 Apr 2022

How many 25-year old motorcycles are still being sold anyway? The Honda XR650L springs to mind, but other than it, it’s too early on Easter Sunday to investigate further. Granted, the Harley-Davidson Heritage Softail Classic has undergone enough changes as to really not be the same machine anymore, yet that indelible American profile, architecture, and riding experience remain the same.
