I just got a 91 sportster for a good price, and it only has 4900 miles on it. looks great, and rides good. I am waiting to find a manual but I have a few questions..
The chain in the back has a lot of slack in it, at least 3, 3 1/2 inches from top to bottom. How do I tighten that up, is there a tensioner for the wheel, or will just moving the wheel back work. And is that smart either?
As far as I know, this bike is the 883, but the guy I bought it from said that the guy who owned it before him did the conversion and made it a 1200(?). is there a way to check that? Not sure I believe him.
Also, which manual is best, or what would be most beneficial to a new harley owner? I appreciate all help, I am sure I will be around here a lot
