Howdy all,

A mate of mine has a 2001 Dyna Lowrider, he apparently has conflicting info on oil capacities.

Can some one please let me know the correct amounts for the:

motor

primary

tranny

I assume it wouldn't be much different to my 08 but may as well get info the spot on for him.

 

1999-2005 manual & maybe someone could confirm:

Oil : 3.5 quarts
Transmission: 20-24 oz.
Primary: 32 oz

 

From the Clymer 1999-2003 Dyna Models book:

Engine oil

• With oil filter change: 2.5 US qts (2.4l)
• After engine rebuild: 2.9 US qts (2.7l)

Primary chaincase: 26 US oz (768ml)

Transmission

• oil change: 20-24 US oz (591ml-709ml)
• rebuild (dry): 24 US oz (709ml)

 

Yup. I right my oil just slightly low to prevent blow-by out of the breather with my high compression build.
