Went to replace the friction plates and ended up breaking the wire. I thought I was screwed unit I cam across the article on here that gave a step by step instructions on doing the job and said you can replace the 1/2 friction plate with a full size one and get rid of the wire. Finished the job and it shifts smooth as hell. Love this site. Finished the day before rolling thunder and was able to make the ride.

Thanks. I ended up changing the plugs and fixing a broke wire. The plugs were really grimy and one wire was broken. Runs smooth as hell now.

My 96 Royal Star is back firing like crazy. It also feels like it's pulling and wants to go. I'm ridding this weekend in rolling thunder this weekend and don't want to be embarrassed during the ride.

Replaced the master cylinder first thing, so yeah it feels ok. It does not feel as tight as my venture royale. I used dot 4 brake fluid. I changed the oil and it felt good for a day and then went back to normal. I have a rebuild kit for the slave cylinder and the plates for the clutch. I think I'm out of options.

So I changed the oil and it shifted fine at first but after a quick trip around the block it wouldn't shift into neutral. I put 20W-50 in it. It doesn't slip it just won't shift into neutral once you have put it in gear when it gets hot. Oil was really dirty.

So I'm going to change the oil. What type do you guys recommend?

Installed LED lighting on bike.

So I tested it today. Once I started it it shifted fine, once it got warmed up it would not hit neutral . Is there an adjustment like a cable clutch. I know it a wet clutch. Will changing the oil help?

I have a 96 Royal Star that has a finicky clutch. I have bleed it several times and it gets better at first and then goes back to what it was once it gets hot. It won't go into neutral and once to pull in first gear and has stalled a couple of times. I have installed speed bleeders, used a vacuum pump and even a power bleeder. Any thoughts?

Installed these hard saddlebags on my 96 Royal star

Seems simple enough. I will stop by radio shack today. I corrected the E-4 error following the steps on the website.

Changed out the starter solenoid and it corrected the problem. Time to go ridding.

So I get everything buttoned back up, put oil in it go to start it and it just spins. I think I didn't get the flywheel on far enough, it is definitely not as close to the gears as it was when I pulled it off. I drained the fluids and pulled the cover again, checked the small gears and they looked good. I hit the starter with the cover off and I hear it spin but none of the gears move. I'm thinking I need to try and get the flywheel tighter.

Yes the battery light stays on along with the warning light.
