2001 road king
I am the third person to own this bike. Having problems with clutch, grabbing when leaving a red light. Removed primary cover, took out all friction rings, and noticed the ring gear and sprocket have a wobble or side to side runout when rotating. This causes the primary chain to flex, quite a lot. Like the bearing is not seated properly in the clutch basket. Do you know of this happening to anyone else? Or is it"they all do that"?....Curtis

RE: 2001 road king
Had a very similar problem with my "96 after I bought it. The dealer in Florida (where the bike was purchased) said they had put a new clutch assembly in it. Turns out they forgot a spring plate. Our local shop caught the problem during routine maintenance. They added the plate and the clutch has been great ever since.
