OCEDURES
Tension and integrity of the primary and rear drive belt or chains should be checked at each recommended
service interval unless vehicle operation indicates attention sooner.
Belts also should be inspected for fraying, uneven wear pattern and excessive tooth surface wear.
The primary chain must have chain tightness checked. The primary chain should have 3/8 inch -
5/8 inch play when hot and no more than 7/8 inch when cold. In addition to belt condition, tightness of belts on
pulleys must be checked. This is accomplished by alternately applying a 10-pound force to the top and bottom
side of belt in the center of the distance between the two pulleys. The “play” or deflection on the belt should be
1/2 inch.
With soft-tail type motorcycles, it should be noted that the belt gets looser as the suspension compresses.
This is proper and should be expected. The belt should be adjusted with ride height consideration.
A trained, professional technician should conduct belt inspection and adjustments. Unsuitable belts should be
discarded and replaced with recommended belts from the “American IronHorse Consumable Table.”
To check primary fluid level, remove the derby cover, making sure that the bottom edge of the clutch
diaphragm spring is touching the surface of the fluid.
The clutch mechanism is controlled by the clutch lever located on the left side of the handlebars (Figure
2
).
