Remove the primary cover. Remove the small bolt at the end of the starter. From the right side of the bike, remove the two bolts holding the starter to the back side of the primary housing. This job is much easier if you remove the oil tank to get at the starter bolts, but I have done it with the oil tank in place, by using long ball allen wrenches. Always replace the locking tabs at the end of the starter when replacing the starter, or removing it from the bike for any reason,

SOURCE: removing front wheel from harley davidson heritage

first take off the brake caliper takes a 10 mm socket..Next jack front of bike up just enough to take pressure off front tire...take off the axle nut lbit more to take pressure off axleock washer and flat washer...Next remove two axle support nuts from the right side of bike 1/2 in socket. now jack bike up a hair more to releave pressure off axle push, hammer with a rubber hammer or what ever it takes to drive it through. jack bike up so it clears fender. Sometimes the tire won't clear the fender bolts if so just release air from tire and it will clear. good luck. Its not hare at all.

SOURCE: oil drain plug

Hi
It is located on the right side just under the oil tank ; if you follow the rudder hose that exits the rear right side of your oil tank it leads to the bottom of the frame under this is the oil plug. This hose has a plug clamped to the end of it or stuck into a prug that is welded to the frame.
After this unclamp and pull the plug to make sure that you have the dipstick out before pulling it loose.

Please do rate the solution as "FixYa" if found useful and revert for further assistance.
Thanks Rylee
