C.2

FLUID CONVERSIONS

UNITED STATES SYSTEM

Unless otherwise specified, all fluid volume measurements in
this Service Manual are expressed in United States (U.S.)
units-of-measure. See below:

•

1 pint (U.S.) = 16 fluid ounces (U.S.)

•

1 quart (U.S.) = 2 pints (U.S.) = 32 fl. oz. (U.S.)

•

1 gallon (U.S.) = 4 quarts (U.S.) = 128 fl. oz. (U.S.)

METRIC SYSTEM

Fluid volume measurements in this Service Manual include
the metric system equivalents. In the metric system, 1 liter (L)
= 1,000 milliliters (mL). Should you need to convert from U.S.
units-of-measure to metric units-of-measure (or vice versa),
refer to the following:

•

fluid ounces (U.S.) x 29.574 = milliliters

•

pints (U.S.) x 0.473 = liters

•

quarts (U.S.) x 0.946 = liters

•

gallons (U.S.) x 3.785 = liters

•

milliliters x 0.0338 = fluid ounces (U.S.)

•

liters x 2.114 = pints (U.S.)

•

liters x 1.057 = quarts (U.S.)

•

liters x 0.264 = gallons (U.S.)

BRITISH IMPERIAL SYSTEM

Fluid volume measurements in this Service Manual do not
include the British Imperial (Imp.) system equivalents. The fol-
lowing conversions exist in the British Imperial system:

•

1 pint (Imp.) = 20 fluid ounces (Imp.)

•

1 quart (Imp.) = 2 pints (Imp.)

•

1 gallon (Imp.) = 4 quarts (Imp.)

Although the same unit-of-measure terminology as the U.S.
system is used in the British Imperial (Imp.) system, the actual
volume of each British Imperial unit-of-measure differs from its
U.S. counterpart. The U.S. fluid ounce is larger than the British
Imperial fluid ounce. However, the U.S. pint, quart, and gallon
are smaller than the British Imperial pint, quart, and gallon,
respectively. Should you need to convert from U.S. units to
British Imperial units (or vice versa), refer to the following:

•

fluid ounces (U.S.) x 1.042 = fluid ounces (Imp.)

•

pints (U.S.) x 0.833 = pints (Imp.)

•

quarts (U.S.) x 0.833 = quarts (Imp.)

•

gallons (U.S.) x 0.833 = gallons (Imp.)

•

fluid ounces (Imp.) x 0.960 = fluid ounces (U.S.)

•

pints (Imp.) x 1.201 = pints (U.S.)

•

quarts (Imp.) x 1.201 = quarts (U.S.)

•

gallons (Imp.) x 1.201 = gallons (U.S.)

C-2  2009 Sportster Service: Appendix C Conversions

C.3

TORQUE CONVERSIONS

UNITED STATES SYSTEM

The U.S. units of torque, foot pounds and inch pounds, are
used in this service manual. To convert units, use the following
equations:

•

foot pounds (ft-lbs) X 12.00000 = inch pounds (in-lbs).

•

inch pounds (in-lbs) X 0.08333 = foot pounds (ft-lbs).

METRIC SYSTEM

All metric torque specifications are written in Newton-meters
(Nm). To convert metric to United States units and United
States to metric, use the following equations:

•

Newton meters (Nm) X 0.737563 = foot pounds (ft-lbs).

•

Newton meters (Nm) X 8.85085 = inch pounds (in-lbs).

•

foot pounds (ft-lbs) X 1.35582 = Newton meters (Nm).

•

inch pounds (in-lbs) X 0.112985 = Newton meters (Nm).

D.1

COMPENSATING SPROCKET

GENERAL

Sportster models sold in the Japanese market are equipped
with a rear wheel compensating sprocket.

Periodic inspection of the compensator components is recom-
mended. This should be done any time the rear wheel is
removed.

REMOVAL AND DISASSEMBLY

1.

Remove rear wheel. See 

2.4 WHEELS

.

2.

See 

Figure D-1

. Remove final drive sprocket assembly

(2) and spacer (6).

3.

Pull sprocket isolators (5) from compensator bowl (7).

NOTE

Only remove compensator bowl (7) from rear wheel (8) if
necessary. Bolts (3) are one-time usage only. If removed, they
must be discarded and replaced with new bolts.

4.

If necessary, remove bolts with captive washers (3) and
compensator bowl from rear wheel (8). Discard bolts.

CLEANING, INSPECTION AND REPAIR

1.

See 

Figure D-1

. Wipe inside of compensator bowl (7) and

final drive sprocket (2) with a clean, damp cloth.

2.

Inspect sprocket bearing (1). If bearing surface is rough
or if bearing was leaking grease, replace bearing. See

D.1 COMPENSATING SPROCKET, Sprocket Bearing
Replacement

.

3.

Inspect sprocket isolators (5) for damage, deterioration,
missing chunks or excessive debris beyond normal wear
marks. Replace if necessary.

NOTES

•

See 

Figure D-1

. Only remove compensator bowl (7) from

rear wheel (8) if necessary. Bolts (3) are one-time usage
only. If removed, they must be discarded and replaced
with new bolts.

TITE patch on the threads. Do not apply any additional
LOCTITE.

HOME

D-2  2009 Sportster Service: Appendix D Compensating Sprocket

1.

See 

Figure D-1

. If compensator bowl (7) was removed,

install bowl onto rear wheel with new bolts with captive
washers (3). Tighten bolts as follows:

a.

Tighten bolts in a star pattern (every other bolt) to 60
ft-lbs (81.3 Nm).

b.

Loosen screws 1/2 turn.

c.

Retighten all five screws in the same star pattern to
80 ft-lbs (108.5 Nm).

NOTE

Do not lubricate inside of compensator bowl (7), sprocket (2)
or sprocket isolators (5) with any type of oil based lubricant.
Use ONLY soapy water or window cleaner on isolators to
facilitate their installation. Do not install isolators dry.

2.

See 

Figure D-7

. Lubricate isolators (1) with soapy water

or window cleaner. Install isolators (1) into compensator
bowl (2).

NOTE

Inner spacer can be identified by a radial groove machined
into its surface. Inner spacer is also thicker than outer spacer.
Make sure to install the correct spacer between compensator
bowl and sprocket.

3.

See 

Figure D-1

. Install spacer (6) by placing on bowl

casting lip (4).

NOTE

Use extreme caution to make sure that spacer does not fall
out when assembling sprocket onto compensator bowl. If
spacer is not present when rear axle is tightened, compensator
sprocket and bearing will be damaged.

4.

Install sprocket (2) onto compensator bowl (7).

5.

Install rear wheel. See 

2.4 WHEELS
