- How to, Harley Davidson Sportster clutch adjustment. This is often a neglected service. because some feel that if the lever feels ok then it doesn't need adjusting.... the adjustment is for the freeplay in your clutch hub, This is really important, and a really easy job.
Tools Needed. 1/2 and 9/16 open end wrench. Torx bit 27 for Derby cover.
Flat tip screwdriver for clutch hub adjustment.

My pleasure Steph, Ride safe and have a great day. Thank you for all your support.
I would add: replace all those Torx head derby cover bolts with allen heads. I had to drill out all of them after the heads got soft and stripped out over the years.
I will agree with, Harley will sets you up to fail. They don't won't you to work on your bike.. Thank you for watching and your comment Ross. Ride safe and have a great day.

Just got my first 2001 sportster 1200. Your videos are amazing, everything I need to know about my motorcycle. I have a jack but yours looks much better. I have trouble aligning mine so the jiffy stand doesn't foul it. The small post where the spring attaches gets in the way. Not sure if I can get one like yours in the UK. Where should the jack sit?
Happy to help. Good luck with your new Sportster. As for the jack, cut two pieces of three-quarter plywood 2" x 16" use that on jack pads. hold your jack on an angle and you should have no problem getting a motorcycle up in the air with your kick stand down. they are difficult because of the spring on the kicks stand. Thank you for watching in all your support Mark. Ride safe and have a great day.

So I’m 29, never had money to get a bike. My dad rode for 45 years and he passed in January leaving me his evo sportster, and I wanted to say all your videos are such a big help to me because I don’t feel completely helpless working on my own bike now !
Happy to help. Very sorry for your loss.These bikes are very reliable and easy to work on. Any questions just ask. Thank you for watching and your support. JCK 93. Ride safe and have a great day.
You, sir, are a natural born teacher. Having the clutch adjusted by the book makes the clutch action just right, as far as where the bike takes off. It's amazing what a 16th of an inch too tight or too loose makes. It drags or starts slipping when it gets hot. This video gets you right in the sweet spot, for sure. Thanks for helping the folks out in such a patient way.

Interested in the jack info with the low profile. Thanks Rocco!
I just looked it up, that seems like an unbelievable deal. I'll send you the link. larinstore.com/products/larin-motorcycle-atv-jack-low-profile-with-adapters-and-safety-arms-mal-2. Let us know how it works out. Thank you for watching Harold. Ride safe and have a great day.
Which one should I get for lifting Harley and work on. Floor Jack or motorcycle Jack
Low profile, Laron jack that's what I use.

Many to choose from, but just make sure it's low profile and you will not have problems getting it on the low bikes.
@@TwoWheelRocco harbor freight should go under 2012 1200 custom right
@@Soulriderpowder No it will not Bob. Has to be a low profile. Mine sits an inch and a half off the ground. There's not much clearance on there with the bike on its kickstand. That's what's nice about the low profile it's on the kickstand you slide it on the one hand on the bike and your foot pump it up and you're in business, hope that helps. Ride safe and have a great day. No need for a second person. Which is nice.
excellent video. right to the point.

How often should you adjust the clutch?
Happy to help. If you're a seasoned rider, not much. Just the free player at your handle that's it. HD clutches will last forever. Harley Davidson's are cruisers, plain and simple. Thank you for watching and all your support Travis. Ride safe and have a great day.
@@TwoWheelRocco thank you I’m pretty new and got a 2006 sportster 1200c clutch feels good just wasn’t sure if I needed to adjust it every so many miles ….thank you for the reply
@@travislohneis224 Here's something I learned at a very young age. Do not fix something that's not broke. For some reason these motorcycles tempt you to do things you don't need to do. Put gas in it and wax it. Enjoy your ride. Any questions just ask. Great hobby
@@TwoWheelRocco very true thanks
@@travislohneis224 My pleasure. Great sport Ride safe and have a great day.

When ru going to teach us how to swap riser for 2012 1200 custom
Happy to help. What seems to be the problem with your risers and what do you want to accomplish? Thank you for watching and your support Bob. Ride safe and have a great day.
@@TwoWheelRocco I just wanna to swap oem 2012 1200 custom riser to club style riser. I was wondering if u can show us how to change riser
@@SoulriderpowderThat riser, how many inches would it be?
@@TwoWheelRocco 6inch. Little taller than OEM
@@Soulriderpowder Just make sure that it's not that much taller, 6 inches sounds about about the same as the stock one. So you should have no problems with like your front brake lines for your master. Or your cables, throttle and clutch. I will send a video. Replacing that riser. ua-cam.com/video/3qdLljjUf6Q/v-deo.html. Let us know how it works out.
