How do you remove starter motor on 1986 Harley Davidson Softail Custom

First, DISCONNECT THE BATTERY NEGATIVE TERMINAL!!!!

Drain primary fluid, remove outer primary cover.
On the bolt holding the starter gear on, flatten the tab on the lack washer, and remove the bolt.
I use a flat blade screwdriver behind the gear, and hold it out to engage the teeth of the clutch shell to keep it from turning while undoing bolt.
If you're completely removing starter, undo the wiring going to it.
If you just need to move it a little out of the way, you might be able to leave the wires attached.
Remove two bolts holding starter to back side of inner primary cover.
Pull starter out, turning as necessary to clear.

How to remove starter 1995 heritage softail

To remove the starter on you Softail, first disconnect the negative side of the battery.

Then drain the primary and remove any footboards, shifters, ect. so that you can get the outer primary cover off. Once the cover is off, remove the small bolt that holds the starter jackshaft on and remove the jackshaft. The jackshaft coupling may come out with the jackshaft. Mark which way the coupling goes back in as there is a snap ring on the inside that is not in the center.

Now, go to the right side of the bike and remove the exhaust system, and remove the bolts that hold the oil in. Do not take the tank out but you need to be able to lift the tank just a bit. Remove the battery cable from the starter using a 12mm wrench. There are two large bolts that hold the starter into the inner primary, remove these two bolts and unplug the small wire at the top of the solenoid and the starter will come out.

Good Luck
Steve
