Any Know Whose Primary Drive System I have, 2001 Prosport?

This is my First Big Dog and I am still getting myself familar with it and wanted to start fresh with doing all the routine Maintenance and Service, myself of course. I purchased the owners and Service Manual (IMHO,over priced for the info given) and I figured out pretty much everything that has been used for the main systems except the Primary Drive. The Service Manual talks about Rivera Engineering Clutch but then it refers to the Primary as a Big Dog Primary. Nothing much else on this Bike seems to be Big Dog parts so I figure this must be a private vendor, maybe Baker? Would like to be able to order Gaskets now and parts when needed and didn't want to disasemble and render the bike unridable while I wait for parts to show up.

Any helpful information would be appreciated, Thanks!



Current Specs:
Bike: 2001 Prosport
Engine:Total Performance 107CI
Transmission: Baker Six Speed
Primary Drive: ?????
Carb: Manual says Mikuni but mine is a S&S Super G, with aftermarket ThunderJet
Ignition: Thunder Heart switch,coil and Mounting bracket, with Twin Tec Ignition Module, Model 1005
EHC: ThunderHeart
Exhaust: ThunderHeader, Jet Coated

I've been cutting my own gaskets for a while now, since all the local dealers closed some years ago. With the Baker transmission, the primary is most likely Baker too- you could give them a shout. You might also get some help from TP Engineering in CT they've been a help to me a few times, good people.

I wood look at going to a Harley dealer for the primary stuff and bet it would be FXR stuff on the primary

You can get anything you need out of DragSpecialties. None of those parts are Big Dog. I love the older models.

Looks like an FL style primary. As already stated, you can get parts for it most anyplace. Can be H-D or aftermarket. I would go with aftermarket myself. Cometic or James gaskets and seals work just as good or better than H-D. Sold in Drag Specialties and most any parts catalog.
Use 1 qt of Regular Primary fluid, Bel Ray or H-D. Non Syn.

HD Primary Cover Gasket
85-93' FLT, FXR
Cometic #C9308F1

Not stocked as much at HD dealers. I try to always keep one on hand.

Riveria Clutch
Energy One makes the frictions and steels for them so easier to get one from them or we can always help you out as well.

Mick,

Thanks, I guess that didn't rgister when I read your 1st response. I just checked out your site(and Book marked it) and now realize I could have gotten them through you. Just got the gasket but I'll make sure to give you a shout first.

Thanks again for your help!
