This manual covers the Sportster XL, XLH, XLCH, and XLT models produced between 1970 and 1978. These iconic American V-twin motorcycles are celebrated for their raw performance, distinctive character, and robust steel frame construction, featuring telescopic front forks and dual rear shock absorbers. During this era, the Sportster lineup evolved with the introduction of 1000cc engines, disc brakes on select models, and the touring-oriented XLT variant, all powered by the legendary air-cooled, 45-degree V-twin engine. This manual is designed for owners and technicians seeking to understand and maintain these classic machines.
The scope of this comprehensive repair and service manual encompasses all essential aspects of the Sportster. It provides detailed procedures for routine maintenance, engine removal and installation, and complete engine overhauls, including piston, cylinder, and valve work. Key systems covered include the fuel system with carburetor rebuild instructions, lubrication, transmission, drive chains, steering, electrical systems, and bodywork. Furthermore, the manual offers advanced troubleshooting guidance, ignition timing adjustments, and specific technical data such as torque values and clearances, ensuring owners and mechanics can effectively maintain and repair these vintage motorcycles.
