Enrichener circuit needs cleaning etc most likely if you are using it to start with etc..

Fuse Block under left side cover

Check temperature sensor

For cold engine oil level inspection have the motorcycle leaning on its jiffy stand on level ground, pull out the dipstick which is right behind the cam cover and the oil should register between the add and full marks DO NOT add oil if it is at the halfway point from add to full marks on the dipstick. Only add oil when cold if it VERY low. THE warm the engine to operating temperature and then let it idle on the jiffy stand for two minutes on level ground and turn the engine off and check the oil. Add oil only to just below the FULL mark. DO NOT fell over the FULL mark or you may encounter all sorts of problems.

probably a temperature sensor

NO you cannot

How does it sound when it sounds like it is jumping out of first gear. Need more information/description of the sound. It could be trap door bearings going but then one would expect the noise in all gears. I do not know if you are describing a bearing whine or growl or otherwise so it is hard to advise you. As the lower gears are in the middle of the transmission case there is an expectation that when things wear the noise from bearings etc will be greater from these gear sets. Post some more information about the sounds and anything else you notice or observe.

Get a diagram or picture from a Harley Dealer

Hard to put that in a few words. Fuses should be marked on the fuse block. If not you likley need a photocopy of a picture from a service manual. A Harley dealer can help with that.

Battery dead, main fuse blown or missing, system/ignition fuse blown, bad ignition switch or not turned on, security system on board and activated, run stop switch "OFF" or switch defective, start relay defective, if hear the start relay click but no solenoid click a defective solenoid, and/or defective wiring between any or all. Good place for a battery condition , cable and terminal etc check and then if good a voltage drop testing procedure to locate source point to problem.

The neutral switch is located on the transmission top cover.

Have you changed your gas filter, sometimes after sitting you will have gas flow but it will clog while driving

overheating shouldn't be an issue. unless the pistons have been modified for hi-compression and inadequate octane is being used and it's being operated in high temperature region,i don't see an overheating issue. I have ridden these bikes in areas like death valley,las vegas and throughout the southwest and these engine won't heat enough to seize up. with ample fuel and spark during an attempted restart,the only reasonable possibility is your pick-up coil inside the cam cover. this inductive coil is in a heat sensitive area. this coil is mounted on a movable plate that affects timing. ,With adequate amount of fuel and a healthy spark you have all the ingredients of a start and run condition. this points to the direction of proper time and possibly a heat related condition. you may want to look into the pick up coil inside the timing cover. if it's original it has serve you well.While in this area,inspect the three wires attached to the pickup coil.
