Hello, all. I'm new on here and not real sure about how to navigate this site but I guess it'll come in time. iLMS having a 2017 Tri-glide shipped to me from Bedford, Texas and due to carrier routing it may not arrive for 14 days. If the bike gets here with a dead battery I am responsible for getting it started as the carrier takes no responsibility for that. I'm a retired mechanic and quite familiar with motorcycles and jump stating the same. But not accustomed to the new electronics in newer style Harleys.
I have a 1997 Heritage Softail Classic carbureted bike. My question that I can't seem to find an answer to is after removing the battery cover which involves disconnecting several electrical connections, do these connections have to be remade to successfully start the trike? Simple task or not. I have to have the trike dropped off a few blocks from my house as the carriers 80' trailer can't make a U-turn at my dead end street. Do I need special tools to complete the battery jump task? Thanks, BobT
