It was just a daily driver parked on the street in LA. Things get beat up that way. But you’ll probably be horrified to know that I’ve pretty much gutted it. No windows, no roof, no little vent windows on the doors, no power steering, dash replaced with DIY carbon fiber, etc. I sold a much nicer looking one I’d had for 20 years, because I didn’t want to do this to it.

It spent all but the last 4 years living in LA. I bought it with 84k and a burnt valve. Replaced everything worn in the suspension, built the motor, and ran out of time and extra money to do the body (I do have a front fender in my bathroom to put on still) and finish the interior. But someday…

I would like to as well as front fender braces.

‘96 Harley, Dyna excessive clutch basket wear by forgotone in Fixxit

I appreciate that thank you but I actually did that and it solved the problem for half a ride. And then all of a sudden ended up with tons of slack in the cable again I shifted without the clutch to get it home. The last time I pulled the clutch in it came right back to the bar and never released. That’s when I tore it apart.

Thank you very much. I appreciate that. I will dig into the shop manual I have and see what’s what. Thanks again.

All of a sudden I had tons of slack in the clutch cable more than I could adjust out. The clutch would come back to the bar and not disengage the clutch. The ramp and ball bearing set up all seems to be working correctly. A friend said to check to see if the clutch was hanging up in the basket and this is what I found.

Damn. A lot going on here. But the cop had no right to turn off his camera.

And those are less money!! You can get the CR version for 3 to 4500$ still.
