There is a filler plug on the top side of the clutch release cover.

The tranny fill is on the right side, just forward of the rear downside exhaust pipe. It is on the top right corner of the oval shaped cover and is flush with the cover. It takes a 3/8 allen wrench to open it.

Default Fluid fill location.

I do have a manual but did not have it in front of me as I was browsing threads. I have an older Electra Glide that I have been working on for the last 6 months.i have never owned a H-D and I am at the point where I am ready to get fluids in this beast and get it off the lift. I want to be sure what i am pouring in is correct.

I am a new member and from what I've read oil/lubricant is a hot subject. The manual refers to part numbers for H-D products and I have still not located in the manual the capacity for the three holes.

Your bike is an Evo and we have a dedicated Evo section, where you can meet up with fellow owners.
