    In this video, we will show you how we do an easy DIY complete 3-hole oil change on a Harley Davidson Milwaukee 8 in a 2020 Road Glide Special!
    OIL CHANGE IN A BOX - 2lanelife.com/collections/oil...
    WRITTEN BLOG - 2lanelife.com/blogs/bike-tips...
    In our last oil change video, we completed the service on a lift, but this time we do it right on the ground using a jiffy stand, which we have found to actually be EASIER! Follow along step-by-step while we show you how we change the oil and clean the air filter while we're at it!
    TOOLS/ITEMS NEEDED (Stock Hardware)
    -Oil filter wrench
    -Primary funnel
    -Drain pan
    -New O-rings (recommended)
    -5/8-inch socket
    -3/8 inch Ratchet with long extension
    -T27 torque bit
    -Socket wrench
    -Torque wrench (recommended)
    -Primary cover gasket (recommended)
    -Flathead Screwdriver
    -Rags to wipe up spills
    WHAT'S IN THE 3-HOLE OIL CHANGE KIT?
    5 quarts of Maxima V-Twin 100% synthetic 20W-50 engine oil
    1 quart of Maxima V-Twin mineral transmission 80W-90 oil
    2 quarts of Maxima V-Twin mineral primary oil
    1 ProFilter wrench-removal premium oil filter: black or chrome
    3 drain plug O-rings
    QUICK CHANGE KIT
    5 quarts of Maxima V-Twin 100% synthetic 20W-50 engine oil
    1 ProFilter wrench-removal premium oil filter: black or chrome
    1 drain plug O-ring
    BASIC OIL CHANGE STEPS:
    -Warm the bike up to operating temperature to ensure all oil drains
    -Park the bike in a well ventilated area and place the oil drain pan underneath the drain plugs, which are located underneath the bike on the left side (02:31-02:36)
    -Remove drain plugs and let the oil drain for a few minutes
    -Once most of the oil is drained, release any pressure by removing the engine and transmission dipsticks
    -Clean the drain plugs and place them back in their designated holes once all oil is drained
    -Drain the primary by removing the primary drain plug located on the underside of the primary below the derby cover.
    -Once the primary is drained, use the primary funnel to pour 1 quart of primary oil into the primary
    -Inspect the derby cover gasket, and clean or replace it as needed
    -Re-install the derby cover, tightening bolts in a star pattern to ensure a uniform fit
    -Pour 4 quarts of 20W-50 oil into the engine fill hole and 1 quart of 80W-90 transmission oil into the transmission fill hole (We tend to pour 1/4-1/2 quart into the oil filter as well as coat the oil filter gasket with a thin layer of oil to ensure a good seal upon installation)
    -Screw in both engine and transmission dipsticks, take her for a spin, and add engine oil as needed!

    I have a e-z up center stand on both my Harleys love it . It makes clean ups and oil changes way better plus fill ups at gas stations way better . Just roll it back with stand down and then ride off that’s it

    Change my own all the time, but I did learn a neat trick from you about holding the bike upright with the door jam. Don't know why I didn't think of that. Always had to lift it a bit on the jack just for that part. Only little piece of information I would add is the oil dipstick has two different marking, one for upright, and one for the jiffy stand. Also screw in the oil cap for checking, but the tranny dipstick is measured not screwed in. Thanks! Hope to see you next month, the 66 trip is still on.

    Figured I'd add my two cents. For the oil filter, I take a paper plate and cut a straight line across one side with a pair of scissors. Curl the plate around the filter and it funnels the oil away perfectly! Thanks for the video, love the content!

    I’m still doing reporting and analytics, and still enjoying it. I ride when we can and have been changing my own fluids on my ’07 Street Glide since it was new; hands-on is the best way to stay safe.

    I have done many 3 hole oil changes on the 3 Harley Davidson touring bikes I’ve had over the years and I hate it. Changing oil on my truck is so easy with one hole in and one hole to drain. HD has finally got it right with their new Revolution Max engine with single fill and drain which is the new standard with just about every motorcycle manufacturer.

    • @2LaneLife

      Yup, definitely not quite as simple as a truck or other bikes, but aside from the mess, no biggie.

    @richardedwin5980 2 года назад +30

    Fellas…good video BUT as a tech here are some tips. ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS change your o-rings on your drain plugs, transmission dip stick and derby cover. For the minimal amount it costs…do it! Clean the threads of your drain plugs with a small steel brush, spray with brake cleaner and wipe clean with a lint free paper towel. Apply thread sealant to the threads of ALL of your drain plugs. Insert and tighten to 14-21ft lb torque. You’ll NEVER have a leak!!!!! I’ve never had a bike come back for a leak and I’ve done thousands of services!!! Secondly, your air filter needs to dry for longer than an hour. And it needs to be oiled prior to reinstalling. Lastly, fill your oil filter with about 2-3ozs of oil prior to installing it. Fill it when you first start your service and by the time you are ready to install it it will have soaked into the filter element and won’t spill out when installing. Also lightly coat the rubber ring on the base of the filter with oil prior to install. Remember…the oil filter only needs to be hand tight.

    • @2LaneLife
      @2LaneLife  2 года назад +7

      Thanks for the tips, Richard! We covered most of those bases, but will have to be a little more thorough when it comes to the other things. We've changed our oil this way for 10+ years and have never had issues, but one can never be too safe. We oiled the air filter and coated the ring on the oil filter and all of that good stuff.
      Thanks for watching 🤙

    I think the beers started getting to the Gaylin man! He dropped the derby cover and I know it bothered him! Anyways I just did mine today, I use Redline oils. I wanted to see if there's a cleaner way to do the filter! I've changed my oil several times and always made a mess. I bought HD's special orange filter draining pan and even drilled holes in the old filter and I still made a mess this time around.

    • @2LaneLife
      @2LaneLife  Год назад

    I recently found your channel and just subscribed to it. I purchased all the items needed to do the 3-hole change. However, when I reread the manual (2021 FLTRXSE - CVO RG) it indicates that I need to change the engine oil at 5k, the primary at 10k, and the transmission at 20k. Based on your 3 hole change video, you do change all 3 every 5k or do you follow the manual? If you do change all 3 at 5k, can you share your reasons for doing so? Thank you very much.

    What's the bennefit of using 80W-90 in the transmission over using the Halrey Synthetic 20W-50 like harley recommends?

    • @2LaneLife
      @2LaneLife  Месяц назад +1

      While the viscosity of 20W50 engine oil is roughly equivalent to a 75/80W90 gear oil, it is our understanding that the 20W50 deteriorates faster in the trans than gear oil does and given the miles we ride year round, we'd rather be safe than sorry. We change all 3 holes every 4k miles anyway, so not a huge deal but we've just always done it this way.

    Would you suggest doing the 1k service or taking it in? I’m very mechanically inclined. I have a 2022 street glide special.

    • @2LaneLife
      @2LaneLife  2 года назад

      Depends on warranty stuff if that's a concern. A lot of dealerships near us require the first service to be done at the dealership. Realistically, the 1k service is what was shown in the video plus a checklist of various things like fluids, gasket checks etc.

      Our motors are blacked out, but on previous bikes with quality chrome, we'll use a spray cleaner, then lightly rub it down with a fine wire mesh which cleans the chrome right up. If it's an older chrome or sub-par chrome job, it could flake or scratch though

      Yep, it happens from time to time. Last trip, we did a 4,000 mile week and had some long stretches at high speed through the hot desert which can burn up a little oil. We try to carry an extra quart or at least check it throughout the trip, or between oil changes in general to keep it level

    Nothing critical of your methods. Just an FYI on a tool you may not be aware of. I have traveled with a tool called a Lean Right. It is a heavy gauge, stamped, vinyl covered bar that is placed under the frame. It has a "Hook" formed for the Left, bottom frame rail and acts as a Right Side Jiffy Stand for basic maintenance or cleaning. It fits into a Harley's Hard Bag without hogging a lot of space. I do not represent Lean Right. I have carried one for the past couple decades during my travels. I have performed basic maintenance using it. It's especially handy for accessing the Primary. I found mine listed in the Tool section of one of the larger mail order catalogs.

    You forgot one important step. With the bike hot and upright, remove the Crankshaft Position Sensor from the very bottom of the Motor. You need an Allen wrench to remove the one bolt. This sensor has a wire on it. Catch and measure any oil that comes out of the dry sump. If there is more than 6 oz. the bike is "Sumping" per H-D. See Service Bulletin M1450. This way you keep up with how much oil if any is going into the sump.

THEN , you can begin to change the fluids very carefully so you don't make a mistake , or a huge mess on the floor . Oh , and don''t forget cleanup and putting all the tools away . Better make that 1 1/2 hour job if everything goes absolutely perfect .

      With a brand new motor, it's extremely important to do the 1,000 mile service as there is residual metal shavings from machining that can accumulate during those initial heat cycles and miles that are not good to have circulating throughout your motor, transmission etc.
