* Model Variations: Harley-Davidson motorcycles, even within the same model year, can have variations in their engine size and oil capacities.
* Oil Filter: The type of oil filter you use can impact the total oil capacity.
* Oil Type: Different viscosity oils can have slightly different fill levels.
Here's how to find the correct amount:
1. Consult your owner's manual: This is the most reliable source of information. It will specifically list the oil capacity for your model and engine.
2. Check your Harley-Davidson service manual: These manuals are detailed and will provide the precise information.
3. Contact a Harley-Davidson dealer or authorized service center: They can access the correct information for your specific motorcycle.
Important Reminder:
* Always use the recommended oil type and viscosity for your bike. Check your owner's manual for specifications.
* Never overfill your engine with oil. This can cause serious damage.
