    Trans and Prim should be filled and checked with bike upright/level (dipstick dipped only,not screwed down) and Engine oil should be checked on the sidestand,dipstick screwed down (that is why it swivels).

    Man, I've been a mechanic for 50 years, had a softail for the last 17, bought a '06 dyna recently and watchaed a ton of videos on servicing it - wish I'd seen yours first! Clear, concise and no 'down-talking'. I'm a Killswitch Queen fan now!!!

    Great video. It has been awhile since I changed the fluids and wanted a refresher. One thing I do different for the oil filter - I use a thin piece of cardboard instead of the tin foil. It holds its shape and is ready to jam under the filter.

    I have a 06 DWG, bought her new, named her, "LC", for "Last Chance". Yes, there is a story behind why she's called, "LC". I must say your video on the 3-oil change is spot on. Your aluminum foil idea for the filter is a good one. Many years ago, when I performed my first oil change on this bike, I carved up an empty round plastic quart oil bottle and fashioned it into a drain ramp that slips in underneath the oil filter that allows the oil from the loosened filter to drain down into the catch pan. Been using that same piece of plastic for the past 16 years and haven't spilled a drop yet. I had an 89 Low Rider myself and an 89 Soft Tail Custom. Bought'em new 6 months apart. Those are two bikes I sold in 2017 that I really wish I had back. I've always liked the DYNA's. Sorry, I digress. Thanks for your video. Always nice to confirm what I'm doing is correct. PS: Please include your pooch in your videos. He or she looks like a sweetheart. And is that a Ural I see in the background of another video of yours"? Y'all hang in there.

    Great video! I’m a fan! Others may have caught this; I haven’t read all the comments: f-style quart bottles have an offset spout to facilitate venting. The spout should be at the top, when pouring. You’ll find it’s much easier to pour that way.

    I think if you check your manual you will find a cold engine check should be dead center of the engine dip stick. Hot engine check should be full on the dip stick. This helps reduce oil puking out the throttle body on to the air cleaner. And the bike should upright when filling the primary.

    I'm a Honda Suzuki and Yamaha Certified mechanic. If you look in most manufacturers repair manuals there is a filter and non filter oil amount, because the filter holds x amount of oil by itself. On my bikes I always change the filter when I change the oil. You are supposed to dip your finger in oil and wipe it on me a ring of the filter to lubricate it so it will seal properly. I always add a little bit of oil in it to soak the filter. Have fun can't wait to see more riding videos

    Best regard from Europe. you should fill your filter with oil once untill you almost spill over...hold it at 45 degreees...rotate it untill the paper filtering element absorbs the oil....than no oil spills when you install it horizotally.Adding oil prevents your bike from running dry the first 10-15 seconds after oil change.

    Not sure if I can explain this clearly but, for the filter removal, to keep clean, I use a file folder or carboard or part or a paper bag and cut out a 1" wide x about 4" long strip on one side and then slide folder behind the filter (cut out towards filter base) from the front of the bike add a slight crease and the oil runs into the pan below.

    The thinking behind pre-filling the filter is that there will be a brief moment where no oil is being pumped into the engine. As Harleys don't use pressure-lubricated bearings I can't see the point, nor a way to do it without spilling oil. There is also no load on the engine at this point and I have never seen evidence of not filling it causing a problem - oh, and the Official Harley Workshop and User Manuals don't mention it.
