Last Updated: 11th October, 2021
Unscrew the oil filler cap from the oil tank. Remove the oil drain plug from the bottom left side of the motor's crankcase with a 5/8-inch socket. Place an oil pan beneath the drain plug and allow the oil to drain completely. Remove and replace the drain plug's O-ring with a new O-ring.

Using a funnel, fill the crankcase with approximately 2.5 quarts of oil.

- Re-install the filler cap/dipstick and start the motorcycle.
- Inspect for any oils leaks.
- After the engine has run a few minutes, shut the bike off and check the oil level. Top up as necessary.
Similarly, how often should I change the primary oil in my Harley? The Evolution Sportsters have wet clutch and primary drives. It is recommended to change the oil at 1,000 miles, then every 10,000 miles after that. The manufacturer recommends using 20w50 oil.
Moreover, where is the engine oil drain plug Harley Davidson?
In the manual it clearly states the drain plug is on the left front side of the engine.
What oil should I use in my Harley primary?
Use whatever dyno oil is on sale- 5w30, 10w30,whatever. ATF works fine and is helpful in determining if oil leaks are engine, primary or tranny. The splash lube environment in the primary doesn't require a super special oil. I use HD Formula+ and have good results.
