I just purchased a 2009 SE Ultra, one of the mods is the front wheel was changed to a 21". Hence the bike sits about 1 3/4 to 2 1/4 higher in the front then stock.
So I do my first oil change this weekend, motor/tranny & Primary. I put in the recommended levels
Motor start out with 3.5 quarters
Trans - 1 quart
Primary - 38 oz but could only get about 37 oz in before is started coming out the top
Checked the levels and they are all high. So that's when I realized that the front was higher and maybe causing the levels to appear high on the dip sticks and overflowing the primary a little when filling.
So anyone have any suggestions on what level I should run at because if the front is higher does it need the same amount of oil or less. If the same amount as a level bike then the dip stick will always show high.
Or maybe I should do my oil changes on a jack to level the bike.
This is my first Harley so any help would be appreciated, I love the bike, just want to make sure I'm doing the right thing.
Thank you
