And since you are in there anyway I would upgrade the fibers to some good Barnett ones.
That is an excellent idea...thank you

I'm not Hijacking the thread, I've had plenty of feedback on my issue, and tried them all. Just curious how this turns out for you.
Thats cool man, i believe that each little tidbit of info is going to help me overcome this issue...in due time

Maybe you have a problem with your riveted disc (clutch), it's a common issue in Sportster models but some Evo had experienced that problem too, the last guy i meet with that issue was with his 96 Road King.

For sure start with the clutch cable adjustment. That's free and easy and I bet it'll solve it.
