Being on this forum for a short time has really been an education. Even after 36 years of riding, I've learned quite a bit. One of the most enlightening to me is the on line sources for Harley Parts at discounted rates, and is even cheaper with shipping costs than buying here and paying sales tax. The one thing that’s slowing me down is the need for part numbers to order anything. While some numbers are in the Harley big book, or on line at their site, the ones I need like gaskets, o-rings, seals, etc are not. The parts catalog cost a hefty $50. Is there any source to get part numbers on line?
The best way to get part numbers for those service items is to go to a service counter at a dealer and ask them to print them out for you. Most dealers have kits for the 5k, 10k, 20k, etc. These kits will have all the parts you need to do regular maintenance. Of course, you will have to contact the dealer for any special order part numbers.
