make sure to lean the bike on the opposite side of the kickstand,as the derby cover is also the plate you remove to check the primary chaincase oil-or trans oil. you'll need an Allen key. if u need more directions, sell ur bike.

What is the Derby cover on a Harley Davidson?

Harley Davidson "Derby Cover"A "Derby Cover" is basically a dust cover. It's on the left side of your bike and covers the business end of your clutch. It's the larger cover with (usually) 4-6 screws holding it in place. However my '85 Sportster has no screws in the "Derby Cover". Instead there's a two inch (2") screw-cap in the center of my "Derby Cover" with a large closed slot in the center. That's it! there are no other screws holding it in place.

How do you remove the primary cover on a Harley Sportster?

Remove the derby cover on the back end of the primary cover. Behind it you will find a spring and nut. Both slide off. Remove the nut behind that. You have to turn the screw inside it to get it out. remove the bolts from the primary cover and pull if off, AFTER you drain the oil. Once you are done, install the cover and put the first nut back on and turn the screw, just until it bottoms and then back out about 1/8 turn. Put the other nut back on and the spring. Put in your oil and install the cover.

through the primary chain adjustment cover .. through primary chain adjustment cover located on the primary cover...

When you attempt this make sure you have a new gasket handy. Be sure not to overfill!
