In hot weather engine oil in a Harley boils. If you don't believe me pull your dip stick on a really hot day. I change my engine oil every 1500-2000 and I run royal purple synthetic oil. to me its cheap insurance.
Redefining physics are we? Harley spec'ed oil has a boiling point of somewhere around 176C at sea level. If you are running that hot, you got other issues and changing the oil every 3k is not going to help at all.
Me? I try not to pretend I am smarter then the engineers designing the motors and change my own oil at their recommended levels. In the same regard if a doctor told me to take a pill three times a day, I do not take it 5 times a day thinking I am smarter.
Lot of hotel rooms can be had by doing such as well.
I've been know to service all 3 holes on occasion.
Good one.
Every 5k for all three here. Might as well do trans and primary if I'm getting dirty anyway, plus its easier to keep track that way and they are the cheap "holes".
