Bob and Mark demonstrate the best way to empty fork oil from your Sportster’s front fork sliders and replace it with new oil. It can be a two-man job, so try to complete the service with a friend. Newer bikes mostly use 39-millimeter forks, but most bikes are preset with varying levels of spring in the sliders, so consult your manual before you begin this service. Like any other service, you should clean all of the parts that you remove with parts cleaner to ensure that your bike operates smoothly between services.

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.
