So does the battery tender have to be plugged in all the time? I live in Chicago and I would have to store my bike for a couple of months bc of winter also does the battery tender consume a lot of electricity?
@thatmotogal10 күн бұрын
Yes, you have to leave it connected. It won’t damage the batter. The battery tender will feed the right voltage to the battery to keep it healthy.

Hello, what about the vibrations on the Indian Chief Dark Horse during longer trips on the highway? Is it easy to cope with or is it too hard on the bones? Thanks for the info
@thatmotogal28 күн бұрын
I’m usually more concerned about my back, I would change these handlebars if I could. I just started to feel the vibrations you might be talking about but this is 4k miles later, I honestly think I should just do some thorough maintenance and it will be good to go again. I hope that helps.

Not here to criticize you did fine. I have done hundreds of oil changes on Sportsters and other motorcycle just a few of my tips. It doesn't matter if you wait on the oil filter, the oil is going to stay in that spot, you can use a piece of cardboard to act as a funnel or ramp for the oil to drain into the pan when you pull the filter off, they make a special plastic funnel for that reason but its not a necessity. I usually only put 3 oz in the filter that way there is less spillage when I put the filter on. I try to keep my oil level in between the marks on the dipstick. I also like the oil bottle spouts for putting in oil I tend to be a messy person with oil changes, although it is not a necessity. My last tip if the standard slot on the screw clamp is messed up, take the screwdriver bit out of the multi-tip screwdriver one end should be the right size to fit on the clamp. I usually changed my primary oil at the same time of my engine oil, I know supposedly you can go 10K miles but oil is cheap compared to engines and transmissions are expensive and its a quick and easy job and one quart of oil fills the primary, although there is a procedure to getting it exact you get the bike level and fill it up to the bottom of the clutch shell, you can see it with the primary cover off, I found one quart is the right amount, you can use Syn 3 the 3 means you can use it in the engine, transmission and primary but I use the proper primary fluid for Sportsters the primary oil is also the oil supply for the Transmission, thats why I change the primary oil and engine oil at the same time. Fun fact the old sportsters up to 2003 you can remove the transmission with the engine in the frame, 2004 and up you have to remove the engine split it apart to access the transmission itself. I have changed clutches, and primary chains over the years but the Transmission in Sportsters seem to hold up pretty good. I have had a 1992 1200, 1996 883 , 2002 883R and 2012 Iron 883.
