Harley transmission oil weight
The quantities given are per fork slider. If needed, but the conversion between ounces and mL is 1 oz = 29.5735 mL However, the only way to truly drain all the oil is to remove the leg from the triple tree and turn it upside down.
Most Harley-Davidson models have a drain screw in the bottom. All Temperatures Harley-Davidson recommends SAE 20W50 viscosity grade oil for 'all temperature conditions,' according to the Harley-Davidson website. Let’s discuss the pros and cons of going with 75W-140. With this drive-train, the Harley-Davidson FLHTCU Ultra Classic Electra Glide is capable of. The engine produces a maximum peak output power of and a maximum torque of 125.56 Nm (12.8 kgf-m or 92.6 ft.lbs) 3500 RPM. For instance, AMSOIL V-Twin Synthetic Transmission Oil is an SAE 110 gear oil. In this version sold from year 2008, the dry weight is 369.2 kg (814.0 pounds) and it is equipped with a V2, four-stroke motor. But, do consider that 75W-140 is much thicker than oils typically used in Harley transmissions. In the second case, you are filling a fork leg that is bone dry (requiring a little more). Harley-Davidson recommends the use of its own Harley-Davidson H-D 360 motorcycle oil, made of 75 percent premium mineral oil and 25 percent performance additives. Our answer: It is perfectly acceptable to use 75W-140 gear oil in Harley-Davidson transmissions. In the first case, there is a little residual oil left in the fork leg. Note that “wet” means you drained the fork leg from the drain plug and plan to refill, while dry means the fork leg has been completely disassembled for a rebuild. You will want to consider 10wt and 30wt under more extreme conditions (riding-wise or temperature-wise). Therefore, I thought I would share with everyone some Harley-Davidson fork oil specifications – in particular, information regarding the proper fork oil weight to use and capacities for major models. Of course, when all is said and done, I am going to have to refill the front forks.
