YOU HAVE A BRAIDED CLUTCH LINE? PROBABLY A WIRE IN THE HANDEL BARS OR HAND CONTROLS IS SHORTING OUT INSIDE THE HANDLE BARS.AND I WOULD CHECK ALL THE GROUND CABLES AND WIRES.

Try http://www.bikebandit.com They have exploded views of most sections of the bike.

Good Luck

I's possible for oil to come from a lot of places and wind up on the bottom of the engine block. It could be coming from either side or the front of the block. I could be leaking from the o-ring that seals the engine from the primary on the left side, or the cam cover on the right side or the oil filter on the front. The oil leaks out and then the wind blows it around while riding. The best way to find it is to wash the bike thoroughly and then go for a short ride. When you get back, Take toilet tissue and wipe around the bottom of the bike. If you any oil whatsoever, the toilet tissue will show it.

Good Luck
Steve

It's either under the seat or the left side panel

According to your description, your bike is a FLHRI. The "I" indicates that it is fuel injected. There are no adjustments that the owner can make to the fuel system. You'll have to take it to a shop,

Good Luck

Base gaskets leaks, rocker box gasket leaks. Final drive belt wear Final drive belt sprocket wear Loose/worn steering head bearings Check spokes if wheels have them Check under seat for damage to frame/surrounding area from leaky battery Check all turn signals/horn/brake lights, high/low beam, tires Test drive bike Check VIN for modification Check VIN with local police to make sure not stolen Make sure title is clear and transferable

The only thing that I can remember specifically to the 96 model was the fuel petcock. That year, Harley went to a vacuum operated petcock and it was notorious for failure. It would leave riders starnded with a full tank of fuel but not drop in the carb. I suggested that they go to a pre-96 manual petcock or a high qualtiy aftermarket unit such as the Pingel. Other than that one item, the 96's had the same strengths and weaknesses as any other Evolution powered bike.

Personally, I think the Evo engine is the best engine Harley ever designed. I own panheads, shovelheads, and Evos. The Evos win hands down for durability, reliability, and ease of doing high performance work on. I've always thought that the Twin Cam engine ran too hot for my likings.
Good Luck with your bike, Steve

I'm not sure where it's located on this late model but if you follow your spark plug wires from the spark plug up to the other end, you should find the coil. Most of the earlier RK have the coil on left side of the bike behind the horn. The horn is located on the left side between the "V" of the cylinders.

Make sure you're using the correct weght for the oil for your area where you ride..the wrong oil can make your scooter run hot, so can being out of time..even by a few degrees.

When you check your oil is the bike warm or cold, and is it leaning or do you stand it upright?
