How much 20/50 is to be used in primary on oil change for 07 Street Glide 96 ci looks like HD says to use 38 ozs on a wet clutch or is 32 ozs good ?

They're all wet clutches. 32oz is what the service manual calls for, but my primary never takes that much. If you have the bike upright and level (like on a lift or wheel chock... not the sidestand), you've got enough when it just overlaps the bottom of the clutch diaphragm. Mine typically takes 26–28oz to reach that point.

Must be a bigger primary case because mine is 32oz.
