Sammy, let me emphasize levels, not exact amounts.
Be sure to check primary to proper level, bike upright, cold primary, and fluid at bottom edge of clutch diaphragm spring. Primary takes Apx 26 to 32 ounces.
I use a L shaped bent white coated wire for a spinning dip stick since it's hard to see that new clean oil on bottom edge of the diaphragm spring.
My 04 and my best ridding and golf friend's 07 Fatboy are both about the same. I am able to eyeball about 26 ounces, and spin my home maid sick off bottom of Derby opening. Might add a touch more. Six ounces is less then 1/8" in that level.
However, I kept it to the bottom edge.
