Hi there. I am new to the motorcycle realm so i found a 73 xlch 1000 fixer-upper. Would like to know if there is any electric igintion kits out there. would like to get away from the points system. Also would like to find an electric start kit for it. Not a fan of kicking this thing over.

Something like this would work, I'm sure there are cheaper options available.

 

I put that kit on an 87, works well for the money.As for the elec start yes they make conversion kit. Try Jirehscycles they may have them

 

I'll look into them. How about a service manual that will give me specs on cam gears and all the clearance tolerances for the bike? Running into a problem trying to find how to make sure the cam gears are correct and the whim spacings are correct.

 

I have the Harley manual for my 77 ironhead. It has all the info you need.

 

Asked the guy I got the bike from and he happened to save the manual and gave it to me free of charge. Thanks for the help guys

 

i have a 1975 ironhead , this is my first bike and i need help with the kickstart. it broke yesterday and would like to know what i need and where to buy an electric start kit . my handle bars already have an electric start button i just dont know where to buy the kit itself since the kicker broke (the spring) i figured i would just invest in an electric start. help please!
