Harely's in that era have a gasket on the top of the motor that dries out and then causes oil to leak. They also have a reputation for balls gumming up and sticking in the carb. As long as I had the thing apart it seemed like a good time to rebuild the top end and replace with a new carb at the same time. I also had the engine sand blasted and repainted while they were doing everything else. Best thing I ever did. Fixed the oil leak, looks beautiful, and gave me so much more power.
