| + | ===== Forwards ===== | ||
| + | It is very difficult to find forward controls for 79-on IronHeads. ((IronMick of the XLFORUM https://www.xlforum.net/forum/sportster-motorcycle-forum/sportster-motorcycle-era-specific-and-model-specific/ironhead-sportster-motorcycle-talk-1957-1985/120774-79-ironhead-forward-control-problem/page2?highlight=forwards#post2527830)) \\ | ||
| + | Whatever you get they must mount between the front exhaust and the case, not in front of the front exhaust. \\ | ||
| + | It is unlikely that you would find some specific for your model. \\ | ||
| + | You will most likely have to get something and modify them. \\ | ||

| + | 1957-1974 shifter shafts had no splines. ((Moon Wolf of the XLFORUM https://www.xlforum.net/forum/sportster-motorcycle-forum/sportster-motorcycle-era-specific-and-model-specific/ironhead-sportster-motorcycle-talk-1957-1985/193631-ironhead-shift-lever-slipping/page3?t=2069707&highlight=forwards&page=3)) \\ | ||
| + | Non splined levers: \\ | ||
| + | The levers are designed to slip to protect the transmission. ((Moon Wolf of the XLFORUM https://www.xlforum.net/forum/sportster-motorcycle-forum/sportster-motorcycle-era-specific-and-model-specific/ironhead-sportster-motorcycle-talk-1957-1985/193631-ironhead-shift-lever-slipping?highlight=forwards#post4201010)) \\ | ||
| + | On early Ks the shaft is splined, but the early transmissions broke a lot and in some cases as a result of down force on the shift lever. \\ | ||
| + | The smooth shaft that allows the lever to slip is supposedly one the fixes Harley implemented to address that problem. \\ | ||
| + | If you have slippage on a non splined shift lever, you can get a needle from a U joint, mic it and get a drill bit that size. ((72 Ironhead XLH of the XLFORUM https://www.xlforum.net/forum/sportster-motorcycle-forum/sportster-motorcycle-era-specific-and-model-specific/ironhead-sportster-motorcycle-talk-1957-1985/193631-ironhead-shift-lever-slipping?highlight=forwards#post4201010)) \\ | ||
| + | Then put the lever in the position you want, drill a hole horizontally, not vertically, insert the pin and tighten the bolt. \\ | ||
| + | You can also drill and tap for machine set screw vertical or horizontal. ((bustert of the XLFORUM https://www.xlforum.net/forum/sportster-motorcycle-forum/sportster-motorcycle-era-specific-and-model-specific/ironhead-sportster-motorcycle-talk-1957-1985/193631-ironhead-shift-lever-slipping?highlight=forwards#post4201010)) \\ | ||
| + | There's no drilling / tapping required if you used a cutting wheel on a 4"" angle grinder to make the horizontal gap in the lever wider. ((brucstoudt of the XLFORUM https://www.xlforum.net/forum/sportster-motorcycle-forum/sportster-motorcycle-era-specific-and-model-specific/ironhead-sportster-motorcycle-talk-1957-1985/193631-ironhead-shift-lever-slipping?highlight=forwards#post4201010)) \\ | ||
| + | This allows the bolt to compress the area around the shifter shaft tighter. \\ | ||

| - | | Forwards on a 1974 XLH ((photos by shinerrider of the XL:FORUM® http://xlforum.net/forums/showthread.php?t=1834828&page=3)) || | + | * 1952-1956 K Models and 1957-1978 Sportsters: \\ Early Sportsters used a round one piece metal bracket to mount the passenger pegs for use with the Buddy Seats. \\ The first version (52702-59) doesn't show up in the parts books until the -60 supplement catalog even though it sold for use on 1952-1959 models also. \\ The part number was superseded (52702-59A) in the 1970 parts catalog. \\ It attaches to the bottom rear motor mounts. |

| + | * 1980-1981 Sportsters: The passenger peg bracket changed back to a bent bar attached at the bottom rear motor mounts. | ||
