Default 99 fxr oil quantities

can someone tell me how much the primary oil takes?

transmission?

oil?

clutch?


also what fluids are recommended?

I have mobil 1 20w50 which it says can be used in all of the above but does anyone do this and have no issues?

As per my service manual

Engine oil: 3 qts 20w-50
Primary: 26 oz "fill until level with bottom edge of clutch diaphram spring"
Tranny: 20-24 oz

You'll get plenty of opinions on which fluids to use. Too many opinions actually. Harley fluids for the tranny and primary are fine. I'm using ATF in my primary and RedLine Shock Proof in my tranny. I'm a fan of Mobil1 and use it in my car and my RoadGlide's engine, but would not use it in the tranny. Pick up a decent 75w-90 or 80w-140 gear oil if you don't have access to RedLine products where you are. Quite frankly, just about anything is OK in the primary. You are probably fine using the Mobil1 in there if you choose.
