I don't think there is a set number of times. You can basically keep reusing it until it gets hard and doesn't seal anymore. So, replace it when it leaks.
I ride my bike down the road about 8 miles come home and cut it off and wait 10 minutes and drain all my fluids while hot. I fill it up to spec levels and then ride down the road about 8 miles and come back and wait about 5 minutes a recheck my fluid and fill back to correct level on sticks if needed. I use Amsoil 20W50 in engine and dedicated Amsoil transmission and primary fluids for those. It’s fine to use oil in all three I just prefer to use the specific fluids for trans and primary. Always shifts better than with all oil.🤷🏻♂️Just me though.
@@Don_Frahn here is the manual for an 09. The bike is the video is an 08. 32oz wet. Page 1-22. www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/x0l7cjbhxnopwtdrtmui2/Harley-Davidson-Dyna-2009-Service-Manual-99481-09-OPT.pdf?rlkey=937lbho3gypmq1aoxw0qs6w1l&e=1&dl=0
75/140 for the primary. It’s good and sticky, so it stays on the chain. Technically it is “automotive” gear oil. You just want to make sure whatever you use has friction modifier in it. That’s what helps your clutch operate smoothly. Often this is advertised as “for limited slip differentials”. For the engine, 20/50. For Harleys you can use automotive or bike oil, since the clutch is separate. On metric bikes you should use bike oil because of the clutch and friction modifier. However, on some beater metric bikes I have used car oil, and it worked fine.
@@KnobleMoto Fantastic...I am relatively new to HD's....about 4 years now with an 07 Dyna Superglide...love it. So gear oil with friction modifiers in primary, engine oil can be automovie...what about the trans...seems like that oil is a low weight oil? Should I stick with vtwin trans oil? Thanks again.
@@robertmacdonald2735 Baker trans recommends 75/140 for the trans also. They are straight cut gears, so it should be pretty thick. I wouldn’t go any thinner than 20/50 in the trans.
@@felixlugo7256 You owners manual also recommends you ride at a safe an legal speed, but we all know that isn’t going to happen. (You may want to double check manual regarding oil weight)
Using this now for my oil change for my dyna street Bob thanks man!
You’re welcome. Glad it helped
First time doing my own street bob and it happens to be an 08 too!!! Thanks for the excellent explanation.
You’re welcome
Good stuff! My Street Bob needs an oil change, so now I can do it myself. Thanks dude!

How many times can you pull that side plate off and use same gasket?
I don't think there is a set number of times. You can basically keep reusing it until it gets hard and doesn't seal anymore. So, replace it when it leaks.
So if I put 3 quarts I should be fine, I know people say no more then 2 1/2
3 is fine, and better. I always shoot for the high end of the “full” mark.

Cool 👍😎
So does the primary take more than a quart?
Nope. Just one.
You should buy a manual for your specific bike. My 2016 street Bob states 34 oz. Which is a hair more than a quart.

What year model and what engine we doing this on. Thats sort of important to me.
That is a 2008 FXDB 96”
@@KnobleMoto 👍 thanks
What happens if you put oil in the filter?
It will leak, heavily.
Good video
Thank you.
Is it the same for the 23 fxbb?
Overall, yes. But here is more exact video. ruclips.net/video/MVCWyPV7ZZA/видео.html
pretty much but m8 holds more
O, and I always have a new primary gasket just in case I need one my bike won’t be down until I get one.🤷🏻♂️
Keeping parts on hand is always a good plan.
he doesn't show where the drain is for the transmission oil
39 seconds in I point to the transmission drain plug, and then remove it.
@@KnobleMoto Thanks bro ride safe

Thank you.
What type and brands are you using for the oils?
The gear oil was valveoline & and the engine oil was mobile 1. Both synthetic.
@@KnobleMoto Thanks...so the primary your running gear oil...what weight? Mobil 1 for engine....is it auto or moto?

good video, but not say oil type for the cluch or engine
20/50 for the engine and 75/140 for the primary and transmission. Synthetic for all three.
@@KnobleMoto But my harley 2016 103 engine and harley recomended 20/50 for all.

@@KnobleMoto have the manual and the same recommendation.
@@felixlugo7256 So….if you had the answer, why did you ask me?
Sir
K&N filters aren’t supposed to be tightened by the nut only loosened.
That’s why the spot welds crack and leak
