RE: oil change questions
Sounds like you pulled the tranny plug to me, pull the trans dipstick and check. Also fyi when I refilled the oil on my wg the capacity says 3 quarts but it will only take about 2.5 b/c there is about 1/2 quart that doesn't drain. Didn't read the directions close enough when I did mine the first time and ended up dumping about 1/2 quart of oil all over garage floor. Not sure if the bob is the same but I would guess that it is. Good luck

[align=center]YEP, YOU HAVE DRAINED THE TRANSMISSION
BUY A QUART OF 75 90 TRANS FLUID FILL SLOWLY AS TO NOW OT OVER FILL
THE OIL PLUG IS A ALLEN WRENCH PLUG ON THE FRONT.
DEALERS WILL TELL YOU IT HOLDS 3 QTS...
BUY 3 TO HAVE ON HAND... BUT FILL SLOWLY. MOST DONT HOLD 3 AND YOU DONT WANT TO HAVE TO PUMP IT BACK OUT.
CONTACT ME IF YOU NEED MORE HELP..

RE: oil change questions
I don't have a pic,but I did the exact same as you yesterday! pulled the wrong plug and out came the primary oil! the engine oildrain plug,if you look from the same side as you removed the primary by accident is just a little further under the bike about 6 inches and faces out towards you. it is the same 5/8 inch plug,just sideways. You will have to get hd formula + oil for that which is the same as the tranny fluid,unless you are going for higher tek fluids,that's up to you. And according to my manual it takes .95 liters,or 32 ozs. the engine needs 2.4 litres or 2.5 quarts. I'm giving ya both standards since i'm not sure where your at!
