Hey guys,

I believe my service manual says every 20k miles, but I was at Harley in Miami and it said 50k miles? So I'm confused.. what have you guys done? And is this a difficult job for me to do myself or what?

Thanks guys!
Adrian

 

thing that sux about your 49mm forks...no drain hole for the fluid...
you should just need the oil. refer to manual on procedure and amount.

 

My dealer did it for me as part of the 10k service. Also had them use SE Heavy instead of oem fluid.

 

47000 miles same oil i spose it should be changed someday lol.yeah bs theres no drain plugs on the bike

 

I changed mine at 5,000 miles and could not believe the shat that came out of there. That was some nasty stuff. I have drain plugs, so that made it simple. IMO, you should do it in the near future...

 

yeah i know i should my other dyna went 35k before the change on that and that did have drain plugs

 

never again if you're gonna run the springer...

 

As a person who takes forks apart alot, I would suggest changing every 10K miles. When your fork legs are off you may wish to look at a FL lower slider and cut your own drain plug or better still take it to a machine shop. SE fork oil is $3.50/side.
