Default '07 Tourer vs '07 Dyna - oil capacity

I'm bored.

The '07 tourers and the '07 Dynas share the same exact engine and transmission. Yet the Dyna has an oil capacity of 3.0 quarts. vs the tourers' 4.0 quarts. Whazzup with that? Where is the extra quart of oil going in the baggers?

The bagger might need the extra guart for cooling the engine being a bigger bike.

You havent heard? LOL The right rear saddlebag is now an oil fed mini-grill strategically placed to capture exhaust for that smokey char- broiled goodness we all desire!! Less stops ... more riding!!

Seriously .... no clue. Seems strange doesnt it?

The baggers get less air flow, especially when they have lowers. Extra capacity is great for cooling.

PS, an oil cooler on the dyna does add 1/2 quart to the capacity.
