Harley Davidson Dealership for Parts and Services
Harley Davidson: Call or Visit Your Local Harley Davidson Dealer in Person or Online. Founded in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in 1903, (the MoCo) is a great place to get parts for your bike. The good thing is, the parts they sell will fit your bike without alterations. It is also to your advantage to purchase a Parts Catalog for your year model Sportster to help insure your parts ordering goes as smooth as possible.
In general, the part numbers for a year specific manual are as follows:
Manual Type | Part Number |
---|---|
Sportster Service Manual | 99484-xx |
Sportster Parts Manual | 99451-xx |
Sportster Electrical Diag Manual | 99495-xx (starting in 2001) |
