NOTE
When checking the transmission lubricant level, the motorcycle should be turned off and leaning on its jiffy stand on a level surface. Allow a short period of time to equalize lubricant level in the transmission compartments.
1. Check the transmission lubricant level with engine turned off and motorcycle resting on jiffy stand on level surface.
2. See Maintenance and Lubrication → Changing Transmission Lubricant → Transmission Filler Plug. Unscrew and remove transmission lubricant filler plug with attached dipstick. Wipe dipstick clean.
3. Reinsert dipstick into transmission fill hole. Bottom edge of threaded section of dipstick should rest on lip of fill hole. Do not screw filler plug in.
4. See Maintenance and Lubrication → Changing Transmission Lubricant → Transmission Filler Plug. Remove filler plug and check lubricant level on dipstick. If necessary, add GENUINE Harley-Davidson FORMULA+ TRANSMISSION AND PRIMARY CHAINCASE LUBRICANT (Part No. 99851-05 quart) and recheck until level is between lower mark (1) and upper mark (2) on dipstick.
NOTE
Do not overfill or leakage may occur. The transmission capacity is approximately 0.95 L (32 fl oz).
5. Inspect O-ring on drain plug for tears or damage. Replace as required. Wipe any foreign material from plug.
6. Install filler plug/dipstick and tighten to 2.8–8.5 N·m (25–75 in-lbs).
