Default Fluid levels?

I'll be showing my buddy how to change fluids on his bike (07 Street Glide) and was wondering the fluid amounts for primary and Trans, and engine. I have a 06 and not sure if they changed amounts for the six speed and 96" vs. my 5speed, 88".

Thanks
Aaron

Manual says to start with 3.5 Qts.Then with the bike on the jiffy stand after adding 3.5 Qts, new filter & start to fill filter the oil should show at 1/2 of the slashes on the dip stick screwed in all the way for a cold oil check, if oil is not at half way on the slashes on the dip stick cold bring level up to halfway on slashes.Then run the bike and ride till at full operating temp, shut off and check again it should now have a level at or close to the top of the slashes on the dip stick checked being screwed in all the way on the jiffy stand, top of if needed to bring oil level with in range on Hot check not to exceed 4 Qts, do not over fill more like 3.7 to 3.8 Qts

Ride Safe,
Bill G

Technical answer on the primary is when it just touches/slightly covers the bottom of the clutch pack even though it states 38oz wet. Oil I'd go 3.5-3.8 and no more. Also if your bud has the original derby cover, he can get the service gasket kit 17369-06 that includes the three 11105 o-rings and the derby o-ring.
