I'm stalling to remove the right cover only replacing the oil hose since the oil drain hose was replaced I noticed the oil vent hose was brittle 2007 HDSPORTSTER 1200 custom, thanks for the video and I subbed on
Very clear video, I am building a sort of board tracker out of my 87 Sporty. Relocating and changing the oil tank. So I wondered if I could replace the oil lines without taking that cover off. It seems that it has to come off right ?
There is an area in the frame that is cut out to be able to tilt the bottom of the oil pump towards you to remove it. Take a look at the 13:30 minute mark of the video
@@chadmulligan5629 Why would the cam gear fall out replacing the oil pump if the cover is on it has no where to go, do whatever you want but there is absolutely no need to pull the cam cover off to replace the oil pump, because to take the cam cover off you need to pull the rocker box off as well, the valve spring tension will never allow you to put the cover back on.
I’m sorry to say no it will not. The most common reason is you have too much engine oil. This can happen for a couple different reasons and this causes the extra oil to recirculate through the air filter with should go back into the engine to be burnt off but usually collects and drips down the side of the bike. I will try to make a video explaining this in more detail.
for the mates who watch this video, never take off cam cover without releasing tension from cams - which means you should remove rocker boxes first.

Low oil pressure?

Why did you take the cam cover off, that was a waste of time.
That's what I'm wondering

Will the new oil pump stop the oil from puking out into the air cleaner? 🤔
