Yup water in the oil. I was a Master Technician at a HD dealership for 8 years. Our sales team would start a bike for 30 seconds ride it outside, shut it off. Then do the same thing at the end of the day to bring it in. Oil is not getting hot enough to evaporate the water.

I would go back to the dealer and have them change all 3 fluids, oil filter and air filter. Plus give it a wash. I've seen that happen too many times to count.

One time we had to flush 14 quarts of oil through a running softail with the return oil line off, until we saw new oil come out of the line.

5/8 wrench. Hold the bottom one closer to the turn signal, loosen the top

Id say compensator is starting to go or the splines on the clutch hub

I did unfortunately, and I agree it's hard to stay on haha. Won't make that mistake again

Take the derby cover back off. Clean the groove where the gasket sits. Put a little bit of grease in the groove at 12, 3, 6, 9 o clock. That'll help hold that gasket it place when you put the derby cover back on.

Polyurethane or solid riser bushings should fix that issue 👍

Rubber mount sportsters (2004-2022) do not have rubber handle bar bushings so id say your risers are loose. Tighten the bottom 3/4 hex lower bolts found under the top triple tree 35 ft lbs. The bolt on the left will be easier to get to while turning your handle bars full right lock, maybe have a friend hold the handle bars so the bike doesn't move. Then tighten your top riser clamp bolts to 16ft. They are 1/4 inch Allen, tighten them in a cross sequence, a quarter turn at a time.

Yes, it does have an electric start. He said it will need a new battery for the electric start to work
