The HD dealership had me buy Formula One fluid (transmission and primary chaincase lubricant) for topping off. Well dang I sure hope that is correct.
Thanks everyone for the advice, we'll be installing it tonight. It may not even need topping off, I'll see when I look inside.
BTW it's an 08 Dyna Fat Bob

Use a funnel and pour it right back in the edge of where the derby cover bolts on. The other option is to go ahead and swap the cover out then pull the inspection cover ( left of the derby cover) and add the fluid back in through there.
If the bike was close to upright, it may have had to much fluid in it.
It is full when the fluid reaches the bottom of the clutches with the bike sitting straight up.
I almost, and I say almost wish my wife would bolt stuff on my bike when I'm not around.
I say almost because she is not very mechanical. Unlike you

That's why I'm bummed that I couldn't do this myself as a surprise - I wanted to see how long it took him to notice the new cover!
