Default Owner's Manual Info Needed Please

Hello All
Recently acquired a "newer" 08 WideGlide and need some twincam info. Bike was purchased without an owner's manual and would appreciate a little help.
First, are the recomended tire pressures still 30psi front (21" wheel) and 36/40 rear? What are the engine oil, trans and primary oil capacities? And lastly, when checking the oil and trans levels, is the bike on the sidestand or straight up? And dipsticks fully screwed in or just seated? Much thanks!

If you go to the Harley website and click on the "owners" tab near top right of page, you can check out the owners manual on line.

They added this feature about a week after I got my manual on ebay

After creating an online profile and all the HD crap, the link to their manuals doesn't even work. Over 50 views to this post and no one can answer these simple questions for me? Guys....I'm disappointed!!! C'mon now...
