That's a good guide, but be sure to warm the bike engine a little before draining as this will help in getting the old oil & dirt out. Also, open the inspection cover on the primary drive (the smaller one), pull the dipstick out, & unscrew the gearbox filler/level plug to allow the oil to drain freely. Air in = oil out. Using new 'O' rings and a thread locker is not always required. My knowledge is 22 years riding & servicing Harleys. Engineer by trade.

Great 'How To' vid! Thanks.

Tomarrow I pick up my 'New' 08 FLHP from the dealer. This will help me in the future.

@whb1965 Yeah, but I like to do as much as I can myself-I find working on your own gear and not relying on other people quite empowering-cheers Rob.
