Known Issues

Timing Chain Tensioner:

Early Sportster models (prior to 2007) had less durable hydraulic tensioners that could fail. The 2013 model uses a more robust spring-loaded tensioner, but inspection for wear is still relevant.

Clutch Actuation:

Some owners report a stiff clutch lever; this is often normal for cable-actuated clutches but can be exacerbated by worn components or incorrect lubrication.

Rear Fender Vibration:

Due to the bobber styling with a minimalist rear fender, vibration can sometimes cause paint wear or stress on mounting points. Proper torque and inspection of fender mounting hardware are important.
