If you use a hot wire and a fuse blows it may affect other components like horn and turn signals are on the orange wire with white tracer. If you are ok with that than that should work just rember it is only 15A fuse I would run new wires.

If your light is a sealed beam type light, take your headlight out and check the plug on the backside of the light. Sometimes these give problems.

The oil tank it located on the bottom of the transmission.

The exhaust back pressure won't affect the transmission oil or pressure.
I think it needs investigating and maybe there will be a simple answer.

Base gaskets leaks, rocker box gasket leaks. Final drive belt wear Final drive belt sprocket wear Loose/worn steering head bearings Check spokes if wheels have them Check under seat for damage to frame/surrounding area from leaky battery Check all turn signals/horn/brake lights, high/low beam, tires Test drive bike Check VIN for modification Check VIN with local police to make sure not stolen Make sure title is clear and transferable

Harley had some major issues with these bearings in 1999-2000 when they first developed the Twin Cam. Since then, I think they've solved the problem. Sounds to me like it was just one of those things that go wrong sometimes.

What gets me is the roller tappets. I've seen them go bad in as little as 13K miles and then I've seen them run for 75K miles. Just one of those things.

If it's just a tappet roller bearing gone on you, they usually don't do a lot of damage. If one of the inner cam bearings in the case went bad, it usually puts a lot of metal in the crankcase.

Good Luck

Oil has nothing to do with it. That guy must sell ams oil or something..anyway its your temp sensor on your bike. change it out. You guys running injected correct?

I am assuming you mean what are the color of the wires that go to the horn. If so, the yellow/black is positive when the horn button is depressed and the black is ground. The wiring for the horn button is orange/white positive and yellow/black to horn. The orange/white wire gets 12vdc from the acc fuse.

I don't see how oil can cause an overheating problem. I think the service tech was screwing with the fuel/ignition map when the bike was on the dyno. Is it a F.I. engine? Lean mixture or retarded/over advanced timing will cause this, among other things. The dealer may have to eat the cost of repair if you can prove they caused the problem. An air cooled engine that overheats is gonna self destruct!! Get it checked out NOW.

Same oil filter, you're good to go, not to worry. As for the drain plug, I torque everything that calls for torques. If you don't have a torque wrench, be careful when you put it on, you don't want to over torque your aluminum case...you'll strip it, and wish you had spent the money on the torque wrench. If you plan on doing any work on your bike, get a good torque wrench. It will pay for itself and give you ease of mind knowing the job is done right.
