Man, you guys are confusing me. LOL
I filled it to just below the derby cover opening so the bottom of the clutch assembly (for lack of a more informed term), while somewhat level. That took just shy of a quart and a half. Do I need to drain and start over, filling it while on the stand?

My 2002 Road King says to dump a quart in. I do this and have never seen the oil inside the derby cover. Bike works just fine. I have been using a quart for 225,000 miles now.

Find out what your owners manual says, do what it says and you will be just fine. Harley manuals are usually pretty dependable.

Yes, that absolutely does. Thank you very much. I think I went to the green line. Live and learn! Off to buy another quart of ATF.
