I hadda 84 FLTC with enclosed chain , seems around six ounces of motor oil IIRC ..

Loved it better than the belt drive myself

Best system Harley ever had.Not sure about your's but my fxrt only took 3 1/2 qts. to change oil,used the rest to do the chain. Traded it with 112,000,adjusted the chain twice.

FLTC took four quarts motor oil ..

Biggest problem I had with enclosed chain , was the chain case seals would leak if ya torqued the axle to tight after a tire change ..

Bought new and traded in 1988 on a 1988 FLTC , had 242k and some change on it ..
