Primary Chaincase Noise
I have a 2007 street glide with 20,000 miles on it. Recently I have noticed some mechanical noise coming from the chain case. It's more prevalent when it's in neutral. When I pull the clutch in it stops and when I let it out the sounds comes back. It sounds like a rotating noise. I have changed the chain case fluid and adjusted the clutch to manual specs...any idea what it could be?

Neutral rattle, Harley will tell you it's normal. **** poor stack up tolerance on the gears, Harley sent a bulletin to their dealers telling them to tell customers it's normal. You can call corporate and complain but I doubt it will do much good.

Definitely your Inner Primary Bearing! Usually goes bad right at about 20,000 miles. About a $500 fix if you let dealer do it. Part is cheap. Cost is in the labor. I baby my 2010 96 twin cam, completely stock engine. Ran nothing but Amsoil and Red Line and changed every 3,000 miles. I bitched like crazy when mine went. HD mechanic told me his also went at 20,000 and that it happens to about 1 out of 5 twin cam engines. As far as I know the MoCo has never issued a recall on this problem. Get it done as soon as you can to prevent further damage.
