Below is a part of the recent S&S newletter, it starts out about twin cam yet follow thro, as S&S use of shovel comes into it too.I never knew that Harley had...
Okay guys I need a little help. Does anyone have a breakdown picture of the shifter and such for a 78 sporster. I bought this trike from a guy with only one...
Wasn't that the year they actually built them that way? Seems to me, for a couple of years they put the shifter on the right side on the Sportster. Hmmm. Any ...
Charlie, The reason you can't find the parts to put 'em on the left side of the bike is because they weren't on the left side of the bike! Yes, you heard...
Joey, Hate to disagree with you but not all the ironheads were right side shift. Up until 1976 most all of the sportsters were right hand shift because they...
I don't blame Harley for wanting to protect their copyrights and trademarks. Hell, it's probably the only thing keeping honduh from building a panhead or...
... Yeah, Sporties had a right side shifter until '74 or '75. For a couple of years they did a stupid linkage thing to move it to the left side, but by '77 or...
To correct the misconceptions about the sportster, the shifter was on the right until mid year 75. There was a messy linkage shifter that put the shifter n...
Don, I misread the year, i thought it said 73, not 78, oops, my bad! Good catch on that one. lol ... From: Don Rickles To: shovelrider@yahoogroups.com Sent:...

i beleive 1974 is the first year of left side shift on sportsters. 1977 they revised the cases to accomodate the shifter. previuos years used a bunch of...
The shifter was on the right hand side from the very first K model '52 (for flat track racing)thro first ironhead until 1975 when they put the cross over...
Thanks for all the help. i just picked up the trike and I am finding out as I go. I think I have found someone with a crossover linkage but if someone else has...

Speaking of Sportsters......want to hear a good one? I went with a friend of mine a couple of weeks ago to check out an "old Harley in a barn" story. Turns out...
Well it's still a little hard to believe the part about fireing right up and taking a spin, i've had my clutch and cables freeze up in mine after only 1 season...
Hello everyone. Im am getting ready to come home from Iraq for a long needed vacation. I bought a 81 custom Low rider last year and i havent been able to ride...
Well, I didn't say it was totally functional. (who needs brakes, anyway?) We did change throttle cables but the clutch worked well enough to ride around some....
you'll get a lot of different answers on this, but I Loctite the studs in the heads and use locking nuts, (not nylocs) problem solved. Jim K oh, yeah, welcome...
I fought these things for years, used several "fixes" that came on the market, and didn't really like any of 'em. At one point I was ready to weld 3-bolt...
Jim; That's a good score. I worked in an HDI dealership in the mid-70's. 1976 was a good year for Sportsters. A stock '75XL, with a missing front brake just...
