its a 2003 Softail Standard, with Samson pipes.

thi bike was made from lots of parts that i got from swap meets or just fabricated now i want to ride.

looking for old parts,places to research parts , clubs and or groups assiated with knuckle head restoration thanks tom

looking for a Hitachi starter housing, need a.s.a.p.
my bike is at a dealer and they are having problems finding one to , plus i've already got in the parts manuel and no on will have it till Sept.
I already checked Ebay also theis is a very hard part to find, otherwise the bike shop wouldve found it
I have been thru all the different companies and the earliest anyone will have one is Sept...... what i need to know - do you know anyone that works on bikes or has parts laying around.

It appears that the years and miles have put residue at the point where my mufflers attach to the exhaust pipes. I cannot get this bond to break loose and don't want to tear up my system trying to get them off the pipes. Thanks for any assistance.

I would just like to see a checklist of stuff to buy to do this service on a 2004 Heritage Softail...and a checklist of things to check over.

I don't want to spend 300 bucks for the harley shop to do an oil change and adjust my cables...I can do that myself and save the cash.
Oh yeah...I think your right...I do recall seeing that in the manual.
to the second answer: I've heard that...but then I've heard that it doesn't void the warrentee...

AND ABOUT you sly comment about the mileage...I had two babies in the past two years...worked real close to home...DIDN'T GET OUT MUCH DUE TO HAVING CHILDREN...plus it is an 04 which I BOUGHT in December of 05...so what's your point again about my milage?
oops...I mean december of 04...Dealer had 05 already out and 06's would be on the way in 6 months...so I got a great deal...
Good answer Bennett...I just don't see the point in having HD shop do the work when I am perfectly capable of doing this myself...I used to do all my own work on my sportster...but of course that bike did not have a warrentee...

anybody know where i can find an old harley in new york, besides ebay? i'm putting a bobber together and am really trying to find an old wreck, mostly for the motor and trans and few misc. parts to make wiring it up and things like that a little easier. i'm using a flyrite choppers roller for the bike, now i just need to find that old wreck!
