Need diagram and print out for clutch replacement on a 1973 harley sportster.
SOURCE: starter not always turning motor
Possible solution. You probably know that harleys, unlike almost all the others used a bendix type to shove the starter motor's gears into engagement with the starter clutch. Since you replace the solenoid, the thing that pushes the gears into engagement; the battery, that would push the starter motor if the gears were in engaagement; and the starter motor, which would turn the ring gear if it was in engagement. So wht's left? Unfortunately it sound like it might be the teeth on either the ring gear or the bendix gear, probably the ring gear as it was notoriously weak on iron sportys. Not a problem you want to try to fix at home unless blessed with tools, room and time.
SOURCE: Clutch Adjustment 1200R Sportster 2004
Slide the rubber cover off the adjustment nut on the clutch cable, loosen the lock nut adjust the cable until you have about an 1/8" play in your clutch cable at the lever. To adjust the clutch itself remove the derby cover, then the spring and retainer. Turn the post until snug and then back off a quarter to half turn, reassemble the derby cover.

Contact me directly and I'll try to scan you a copy of a wiring diagram for your 82 Ironhead. [email protected] The diagram I have is quite large and I'll have to send it to you in two .JPG format files. If that would be sufficient, let me know.
