Regular Service Intervals

Service must be performed at specified intervals to keep your Harley-Davidson motorcycle operating at peak performance. Refer to Service Intervals for table.

Refer to Service Actions for service action definitions used in the service interval table.

NOTE

The use of parts and service procedures other than Harley-Davidson approved parts and service procedures may void the limited warranty. Any alterations to the emission system components, such as the intake and exhaust system, may be in violation of motor vehicle laws.
Some countries, such as Brazil, may require all regular maintenance or additional annual (or semi-annual) regular maintenance steps to be performed to keep your limited warranty in effect and/or comply with vehicle regulations. Check with your authorized Harley-Davidson dealer as well as the motorcycle regulations in your country.
Whenever a vehicle is in for maintenance:
1. always check for and complete recalls and open product programs.
2. always verify that the latest calibration is installed.
After completing the final service interval, repeat the service schedule starting at the 8000 km (5000 mi) interval.
