Dynas with ABS -- transmission fluid change?
This is for Dyna owners that also have ABS:
When it's time to change the transmission fluid, can the ABS unit be "un-bolted" from the frame and moved aside, for easier access to the fill plug/dipstick?
Looks like it would be pretty tough to refill or check the fluid level with the ABS module in the way...

I use a socket, and a u-joint to get the plug out after I snap the cover of the ABS module. Go get a cheap transmission funnel from an auto parts store, and that will keep the filling nice and clean. Checking the level does suck, but it's do-able.
HD says their Speed Check dip stick says it will not fit with BAS< but I want to give it a try... There's a little room there.

The ABS unit can be unbolted but it doesn't move far because of the hard lines. I am not sure if it would be far enough to get to the trans fill plug any easier. I had mine unbolted for a different reason.
