On some older bikes one of the bushings had problems but this is almost new and runs great. Should I check the compression first?

sounds like a fuel supply problem it probably has some build up in the fuel system from sitting so much, if it has a screen in the bottom of the tank it could be clogged with sediment from the fuel sitting. or in the filter if it has one could be clogged with old gas or dirt particles. Clean the tank if needed, unhook fuel line at engine and make sure there is flow from the tank. I sometimes blow air through the line back up to the tank to back wash any problems.
good luck

You've blown a fuse, check the fuse block. it should be an accessory fuse.
SOURCE: low oil on dip stick
no, in my opinion there was no harm done to the engine. if the dipstick had oil on it when you checked it, then its fine. any time you change oil and filter, let the bike idle until its hot then shut it down and wait a couple minutes and then check oil level.. and add if necessary.

Not sure what the question is but to get to the clutch you will have to drain the oil out of the primary and remove both small covers and lager outside primary cover to get to the clutch. Remeber to fill it with oil after you put it together it should take about 32 ounces of oil.
SOURCE: how to install rod bushings on a harley
Replacing rod bushings is not a difficult job but you must have some special tools if you're going to do it with the crank assembly still in the cases.
Harley makes a special tool with which you remove and reinstall the bushings with. Basically, it's a couple of metal cups and a bolt. You ues the cups in one way and pulls the old bushing out. Use them the other way and pulls the new bushing back into the rod.
Once you have the new bushings in place, you must have a special **** with which to **** the new bushing to the correct inside diameter.
If you have the crank out of the cases and the crank is disassembled, you can have the rod bushings replaced the way most other such bushing are replaced in a machine shop. They have equpment to press the old bushings out and new ones back in and then hone the bushing to size. Simply take them your rods, the new bushings, and a new piston pin for sizing the bushing too.
I do not have the part numbers for the tools needed to do this job as I don't have a service manual in front of me. If you need the numbers of those tools, contact me directly at [email protected] Good Luck!
