Default Howdy from MI! ...and a basic question
Hi- I just bought my first Harley last week... and I love it so far! pic below... unfortunately, however: the ONLY thing I got in the deal was the bike: no owner's or service manual, etc. the bike is a 2007 Thunder Mountain Sterling, which I believe started as a Softail...? Anyhow, I need to change the fluids... I've read thru the lengthy thread on types, but am left with: after I drain it, what quantity of oil goes in each hole to make it "whole" again? Thanks in advance!

Welcome to the hdforum from Oklahoma. I would suggest posting your question in the softail section.
