Usually the starter overrunning clutch is the first part to fail in a modern (post 1988) Big Twin. Unlike earlier Harley starters, modern ones have the starter motor, solenoid and overrunning clutch built into a single unit, just like a car's starter.
In fact, Harley's starters are the exact same ones used in many cars, like Toyota.
So how do you know if the starter clutch is failing or has failed? The starter motor turns but doesn't crank the bike's engine.
You can pay big bucks to your Harley dealer or buy the same starter clutch much cheaper and install it yourself. The starter isn't complicated at all.
Do a web search for any of these part numbers:
Toyota part #0283010010
WAI part #54-82401
NAPA Auto Parts #4-1071
