Oil level cannot be accurately measured on a cold
engine. For pre-ride inspection, with motorcycle leaning
on jiffy stand on level ground, oil should register on dipstick
between arrows when engine is cold. Do not add oil
to bring the level to the FULL mark on a COLD engine.
(00185a)
See Figure 1-1. Check engine oil level:
●
As part of the pre-ride inspection.
●
At each fuel fill
●
At every scheduled service interval.
Type of Oil
Refer to Table 1-3. Use the proper grade of oil for the lowest
temperature expected before the next oil change. See 1.2
FUEL AND OIL for specific information regarding winter
needs.
If it is necessary to add oil and Harley-Davidson oil is not
available, use an oil certified for diesel engines. Acceptable
diesel engine oil designations include CF-4, CG-4, CH-4 and
CI-4. The preferred viscosities for the diesel engine oils, in
descending order, are 20W-50, 15W-40 and 10W-40. At the
first opportunity, see a Harley-Davidson dealer to change
back to 100 percent Harley-Davidson oil.
Checking With Cold Engine
1. See Figure 1-1. Unscrew and remove engine oil filler cap
with attached dipstick. Wipe dipstick clean.
2. Reinstall filler cap. Turn filler cap clockwise until it stops.
3. See Figure 1-2. Again, unscrew and remove filler cap
and check oil level on dipstick. If oil level in pan is below
lower mark on dipstick, add enough Harley-Davidson oil
to bring level up between lower mark (1) and cold check
level (2) on dipstick.
NOTE
Be sure to clean oil from dipstick threads. If oil is present on
dipstick threads, it can weep past dipstick o-ring. This condition
may be incorrectly diagnosed as an oil leak
4. Replace filler cap and screw in securely.
1. See Figure 1-10. Check level in rear brake master cylinder
reservoir. Level should be 1/8-1/4 in. (3.2-6.4 mm)
below the gasket surface.
CAUTION
Do NOT allow dirt or debris to enter the master cylinder
reservoir. Dirt or debris in the reservoir can cause
improper operation and equipment damage. (00205b)
2. See Figure 1-11. Check level in front brake master cylinder
reservoir. Level should be 1/8-1/4 in. (3.2-6.4 mm)
below the gasket surface.
3. Install gaskets and covers. Tighten reservoir cover
screws to 6-8
in-lbs
(0.7-0.9 Nm).

4. Front brake hand lever and rear brake foot pedal must
have a firm feel when applied. If not, bleed system using
only D.O.T. 4 BRAKE FLUID. See 1.7 BLEEDING
After repairing the brake system, test brakes at low
speed. If brakes are not operating properly, testing at
high speeds can cause loss of control, which could
result in death or serious injury. (00289a)
