hi, I plan to do an oil and filter change on my 2011 fxdb, she's done 6500 miles and I've just received my K&N filter and 4ltr's of Motul 7100, 20/50 synthetic oil(THEY WANT AN ARM AND A LEG FOR HD ORIGINAL **** IN UK),have checked websites and appears these should be good for the job. Motul site states oil meets Harley spec ?
Any opinions?

 

Yes it will be fine.

 

I would imagine if it s fully synthetic and meets HD specs it will be fine. In the UK I use Silkolene Vtwin fully synthetic.

 

Yeah, it's full synthetic, I did look at silkolene but something put me off, cant remember what though(no surprise there)
cheers guys, better make a start

 

Need new O-ring for oil drain plug too...otherwise, oil's good.

 

cheers for that one iceman
.

 

No problem...normally you can reuse the rubber O-ring, but @ 6.5K miles yours is probably due a change. Another option is Teflon thread tape, if you can't find the right size ring.

 

tape not a problem, I'm a plumber.
