Decided to pull the trigger on the 02 Softail Id been checking out. Doing new plugs/wires and all the oils before the new riding season. Im looking at the Milwaukee Twins Kits from J&P Cycle, wondering if anyones ever used them?
Im not a bike mech but I've done a lot of own work on my cars/trucks/ATV's & snowmobiles, just curious if changing out all the oils on an HD requires any special tools or super mech knowledge?
Thanks.

I wouldn't.
I use Mobil-1 V-twin in the engine, Mobil-1 10W30 in the primary, and Redline Shockproof Heavy in the Trans.

An HD service manual should make it an easy job for most DIY'rs.
