Well, it would help it you listed the year and model of your bike.
But if it's a current model Sporty, just dump the oil in through the primary chain inspection cover. It only has 2 screws to remove.

I took the derby cover off mine so I could see how full I had it. They say it takes a full quart but I wanted to be safe then sorry. When I filled it up I had the wife steady it at a lean so I could pore the oil in.
Flip the bike upside down. Get a really skinny funnel, poor into drain plug.
eh, i watched a harley DVD and the dude just removed the inspection cap. it took a really funkass tool.. but he used a chisel and mallet to get it to turn.
