Hi, Anonymous for this scenario you will need your service manual that has all fastener torque specs -fluid capacities and a wiring diagram on the back pages, parts fiche, and owners manual if you can not find the best tool you ever bought for your Harley, despair not, for a mere zero $0 you can download another one.

To take the starter out of you Dyna, first disconnect the battery. Drain the primary and take everything off that will hinder you from getting the outer primary cover off. Remove the inner primary cover. Remove the small bolt that holds the starter jackshaft on and remove the jackshaft. Then go to the right side of the bike. Remove the exhaust system and anything else in the way of getting to the starter. Remove the battery cable at the starter and the single small wire at the solenoid. Take the two large socket head bolts out that hold the starter on. When you remove the starter, there is a coupling that connects the starter and the starter jackshaft. The counterbored end of the coupling goes towards the jackshaft when you reassemble it.

Good luck

First, check both ends of the ground cable. Make sure it's solidly connected and in good shape. Then, jumper across the solenoid. If it cranks, it's the solenoid's contacts - needs rebuild. If it doesn't crank, it's the starter - needs rebuild.

You'll have to take the cover back off and look very carefully at the inside in the starter area to see where it is hitting when it engages, and then use a grinder to relieve the area in the primary cover where it's hitting. Several test fits and removals may be necessary seeing as it is not OE.
It's probably just hitting enough to stop engagement of the teeth, or bind the starter. Other wise it would not work at all. Check to make sure primary is tighten in sequence properly. Take your time, relax, have a beer and look at the job as a learning experience.
