Spa Treatment for My Late 1984 XLH
Snapped the clutch cabe a week back, and used it as an excuse to do some maintenance. My bike is totally stock 5000 mile bike that had never had the primary cover off until yesterday. Inside it was totally pristine. Using the posts here I was able to replace the cable, and adjust the primary chain and clutch cable with no issues. While I was at it, I removed the wheels and has Bridgestone Spitfires installed. The original Dunlops looked good, but were scary in the corners. The wheels had never been off the bike.
One happy ironhead here!

Thanks for the compliments. By the way, those Bridgestone Spitfires are very nice.
