sounds like someone changed the motor,might be best to find a good indy to help you sort it out.you might can look for numbers on the engine and trans,and take them to a dealer they might can help you that way.

First a HD has an air-cooled motor. Its possed to run HOT... Get an oil temp gauge for UR oil tank and then U can say its 220* or 280*.. then U'll know how hot it gets.
Most Harleys will spew some oil out of the A/C if U fill the oil tank to the full mark, then ride hard at high rpm''s..
Most in here learn to only fill U oil level to 1/2 way between the low and full marks.
As far as Ur paint not matching, just have someone to look at it that really knows HD's.
Like a dealer or Indy...

Hello from Redcar England.
Could the trans be a Baker up grade. Has the motor got Harley Numbers that match the frame ?. Could the motor be an S&S, Have you tryed to contact the last owner for some info.
