Silly Question
 
Here's a silly question; when I drain the Oil/Primary/Tranny fluids, is it more effective to have the bike upright, or can I just leave it on it's stand? I know when you fill the primary, the bike needs to be upright, but what about when draining the fluids? Thanks.

Upright is best.

The oil drain plug is on the corner of the pan on my road glide.I do it on the jiffy stand for engine oil only.

The engine oil would be the only one i would feel comfortable draining on the side stand, I use a lift too change all three. :)

Thanks all for input. I've been thinking about getting a Step Jack to help with maint. anyway, which would put the MC upright. Thanks again.
