Harley-Davidson motorcycles typically do not have an automatic fuel shut-off feature. The fuel system on most Harley-Davidson motorcycles relies on a manual shut-off mechanism operated by the rider. The fuel shut-off valve is typically located on the left side of the motorcycle's fuel tank.

To turn off the fuel supply manually, you can follow these general steps:

  1. Locate the fuel shut-off valve on the left side of the fuel tank.
  2. Turn the valve to the "OFF" position. This is usually achieved by rotating the valve lever or knob clockwise until it stops.
  3. Once the fuel shut-off valve is in the "OFF" position, it cuts off the fuel supply to the engine, effectively shutting off the flow of fuel.

It's important to note that not all Harley-Davidson models have a manual fuel shut-off valve, as some newer models may have electronic fuel injection systems that control the fuel flow automatically. In such cases, there is no need for a manual shut-off as the fuel flow is regulated electronically.

For specific instructions on how to operate the fuel shut-off valve on your particular Harley-Davidson model, it is always recommended to refer to the owner's manual provided by the manufacturer or consult a Harley-Davidson dealership for accurate information.
