Before I go and pay harley prices for the part they say is the issue I want to get other opinions as to the issue.
last week I went to replace my swingarm mounts and decided that while I have it on the lift to swap out my primary gasket as I had a leak and couldn't tell exactly where it was coming from. While i had the cover off i noticed my compensator spring cover was cracked. I replaced it. Put everything back together and the next day I noticed that when I would go to start the bike it would turn over then stop and sound like air was being pushed through the engine. It would do this a few times then it would start. It would get worse if I have to stop after riding for a while. I did look at everything in the primary for any abnormal ware before reassembly and everything seemed fine. I know what harley states it is want to see if anyone else had a similar issue and solved it.

 

Stop.

Go back to the beginning.

Tell us what you are working on......

Your ramble is confusing...

What exactly is the issue?

 

Did you not get it? He said...Blablablablablablablablablablabla

Easy enough

 

Did you pull the spark plugs and forget to put them back in?

 

Did you loosen the starter mounting bolts for any reason? Wonder if the starter has shifted slightly and is binding.in the ring gear.

 

What part did Harley say is the issue?

 

Deleted double post

 

I don`t think the dealer has anything to do with this, I think it is just the OP rambling on.....

 

OP; You're missing some detail here...see previous posts & add missing links, if you want any form of aid. >.<

 

I’d be happy to contribute, but have to admit some ignorance. You lost me at ‘compensator spring cover’.

Luck.
