Some are using a fat rod sold by Greg Williams. I see this is your first post, welcome to the forums from Texas.

Thanks to all, I just purchased a 2019 Electra Glide Standard 3 weeks ago and I have put 3000 miles on it and so far I have had about 34 ounces of tranny fluid transfer....sooooo, not too happy.....dealer says it’s normal.....I am not happy with that so I am looking for a way to fix this.....I have had lots of different Harley’s over the years and I have never had any problems with any of them, so this being a brand new bike I thought for sure this was going to be awesome......
Thanks for the welcome....Hope I can get this figured out
Mike

Is "Greg" the only one making the fat pushrod? Looks pretty simple...anyone with a lathe and a mill can rip one out.
What puzzles me the most is, if the theory is to install a larger diameter push rod to stem the flow of oil through a tighter passage way, WHY is there a flat milled in the rod?? Seems to defeat the entire concept.

The real question that I have is why does this only happen to some bikes and not others?....same driveline....same pushrod....and it only happens to some???.....I don’t get it.
