OK so I have a '05 Softail Deluxe that I just picked up a month or so ago. It has less than 1000 miles on the bike, and while I was riding yesterday I noticed that after I have shifted gears the handle does not fully snap back I have to nudge it all the way back. So essentially I have 2 questions.

1. Is this something to be worried about?
2. If it is not something to be concerned about is there a way to tighten this up?

 

You need to adjust the slack in your clutch cable. Get the manual and follow the adjustment procedures.

An '05 with less than 1000 miles, just might need some lubrcant on the cable. Probably has some corosion build up on it.
