Are you sure the starter is bad?

Not a common occurrence.

It's been over 10 yrs but think I opted to remove the rear wheel to change starter on the softail

I have and will. I have his cell number. I just want to dig for some more info which will generate some more questions that I'll have.

Yes. Pull battery & oil tank.

Check for head gasket leak, some have had this problem.

i have only replaced one on a dyna in the past pretty simple straight forward . 07 deuce starter is needing replacement is it very complicated? looks like oil tank has to come out 

I think I remember Stroker saying something like he tuned his iron butt bike for several fuel types to include E85 and could simply change the tune from the controller on the handlebar? Has been awhile. Have you considered reaching out to him for a voice discussion?

I quote 4.  Book will also allow set up and administration time.

 Electrically opened and spring closed.  Closed if electrical signal isn't getting there.  A dirty injector can stick open.
