Bob teaches you how to adjust the clutch and primary chain on your Harley Softail or Dyna model. Be sure to achieve free play on the clutch cable to verify that you have proper adjustment on the clutch cable pack, and check for the proper specs in your service manual for adjusting the primary chain (if your model has the adjustment window). Bob finishes by mentioning that when you are doing this type of repair, only factory service gaskets should be used.

Bob demonstrates the proper technique for checking, servicing and replacing Harley brakes on the rear wheel caliper of your Harley Sportster. He shows how to loosen the caliper, remove the brake pads and install a new set. Once they are in place, he pumps the rear brakes to make sure the caliper is making solid contact with the wheel and checks the fluid reservoir. If the fluid level is low, you should either bleed the brakes or replace the fluid. More Maintenance Videos are listed here.

Now that you’ve fully serviced your Harley Sportster, you can take the opportunity to check all of the safety features on the bike. Make sure the lights are working properly, the horn makes noise, turn signals are operational, and all grommets are in place. Then you should check the throttle, add oil and fill the tires to the correct level. Once your finished with the service, get out and ride!
*****The service manual states you should follow your negation cable down from battery and remove nut that secures the connector to ground stud on the crankcase boss behind the starter motor assembly. You will need to do the reverse during installation.

William, I have a 2015 103 FLHR it idles too fast. Can i fix this my self?
Not sure what RPM you consider to be too fast.
You may be able to address this yourself, depending on what you have for a tuner.
If you do not have one, the dealership is your only option.
However, you may have an underlying issue if the idle is truly too high.
Check for diagnostic trouble codes.

I have a 2002 HD duse that turns over but wont start
Hi, Dan. Start by determining if your issue is fuel or electrical related. Easy way to do this is with a spark tester. If you do not have one, they are very cheap. Usually only $5 or $10. If you have no spark, a bad crank position sensor is a possibility. See if you have any stored diagnostic trouble codes. https://www.fixmyhog.com/video/troubleshoot-with-harley-error-codes-008010/

What’s code PPU82883 mean?
Brian,
That is not a code. It is only a speedometer calibration number.
