Common Replacement Parts

Battery

Vibration on heavy touring models can cause the vertical fairing support brackets to crack over time.
Used Buying Inspection Checklist
What to look for when buying a used 2015 Harley-Davidson FLHTCUL Electra Glide Ultra Classic Low.
Clutch Master Cylinder
Check if the 2015 recall (NHTSA 15V216000) was performed; look for a 'rebuilt' mark or verify via VIN for clutch disengagement issues.
Rear Air Shock Pressure
Check the air valve behind the left saddlebag; if it won't hold pressure, the lines or shock seals are likely leaking.
Primary/Derby Cover Leaks
The 'Low' model's slim primary cover uses a specific gasket; check for weeping at the bottom of the derby cover.
