SOURCE: How do I change the front and rear brakes on a

Not too hard - Undo the two bolts on the caliper and then seperate the caliper and pull the old ones out. Insert the new ones and put the bolts back in to hold the caliper back together and then install them back on the bike with the two retaining bolts. Use a bit of lock tight (Blue) on the threads. Warning do not let anyone apply pressure on the brakes while you have them off the bike or you will have a mess and/or a problem.

Turn the Bike on and the Radio off and then follow the buttons on the screen. Most people think you have to do it while it is running and this does not work

SOURCE: I need to know where the oil drain plug is on a

The oil pan is on the bottom of the transmission. Look under the transmission and you'll see two drain plugs. The one closest to the front left corner is the engine oil drain. The one closest to the center is the transmission drain.

Good Luck

SOURCE: My 2003 Harley Davidson Ultra Classic is cutting

I had a problem like that on my 2003 ultra classic. turns out there was a recall on some electric block in the fairing. It was a main connection power block kinda thing. Anyway they replaced it and then it never happened again.

it would ride a while on a hot day 25 min freeway and then just shut down. wait and cool down and it would restart.

I hope this helps.

2001 Harley-Davidson FLHTCUI Ultra Classic Electra Glide. Bike shuts off and wants to crank back over but won't.

Question edited for a lot more clarity.
Question moved from Cars and Trucks to model category.

'Cranks' means it turns over. I think you mean it cranks but doesn't start?

2003 harley davidson electra glide classic cut,s off when playing cd and cool,s down and stsrt up againn

I presume you mean the radio/cd cuts out and not the engine. I also presume you are not letting the bike idle away as you listen to music! If you are, then the bike is over heating and piston seizure is the causing it to stop. Now, if it is just the radio/cd unit cutting out, the radio/cd unit has developed a thermal fault that requires specialist attention. Nothing you can do.

Ultra classic starts and runs for about two minutes shuts off

Check the vent in your fuel cap. If the vent is stopped up, a vacuum will build up in the tank and no fuel will flow even with a pump.

When I start my Harley-Davidson the RPMs jump up and stick. What is wrong?

May be normal. When cold ,the bike should idle fast for a few minutes. If started hot, will idle fast for a few seconds. Cold idle should not exceed approximately 1800 rpm.
