Default Got it started

Ran it for about 30 minutes up and down our drive way, sounds great, so far I’ve only done an oil change (not a 3 hole, only the one) and charged the battery. Jeep toe clutch feels like it’s a little loose but as I’m new to this it could just be how it is, has trouble going into neutral sometimes. I plan on taking it to a shop for a full tune up and fluids change, currently doing research for local shops so I’m not robbed. Everyone’s help and encouragement has been truly appreciated!

Gorgeous bike, glad you got it versus it being sold. The greedy family people can suck it. Check the age of the tires too during your inspection process. Carbed Evos were the last HDs to have that distinct potato sound (in my opinion) and while they don't make alot of power, it'll do just fine. Check the forum section that corresponds with your area, you may find advice about a good indy.

Get a manual, and do it yourself. Adjust the clutch, lube cables, some new plugs, brake fluid, Maybe plug wires

Some year evos have an adjustment for going to neutral. Post something in tech section.
