Default 94 xl883h


Just picked up my first Harley. A 94 xl883h with approx 17k on it peovided it's the original speedo. I'm wet behind the ears when it comes to Harley's and working on them. I'm a diesel mechanic by trade with atleaat 15 years experience. I've already ordered a service manual. But for the mean time I'll be scouring forums to bring myself up to speed.. I plan on reading older threads but to cover my ***. What are some known issues this bike has or is prone to? (I.e. leaking oil at intake. Etc etc)
I appreciate an and all help.
Matt
