FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS WILL VOID OUR
WARRANTY AND LIABILITY FOR THIS
PRODUCT.
1. BDL’s drives are to be used with stock OEM parts. Use of aftermarket parts may require other modifications or
may cause starter and alignment problems. (Aftermarket starters may cause premature wear on our starter gear)
2. Fill out our BDL’s registration card.
3. A starter pinion gear is enclosed and is for use on all 1994-up models only. You must replace the stock pinion
gear with BDL’s pinion gear on all 1994 up models.
4. You must inspect the drive after the first 100 miles and every 2500 miles after for proper chain tension.
5. Disconnect battery, remove spark plugs and support bike so it will not fall.
6. Remove primary drive if you are replacing an
existing drive. (Refer to HD manual)
7. Inspect new drive and check for fit. Install both
sprockets and make sure motor and transmission
shafts are square with each other. Align sprockets
using a 5/16” drill rod or other sturdy straight edge to
check for proper alignment. Remove sprockets at this
time.
