    Howdy all,

    A mate of mine has a 2001 Dyna Lowrider, he apparently has conflicting info on oil capacities.

    Can some one please let me know the correct amounts for the:

    motor

    primary

    tranny

    I assume it wouldn't be much different to my 08 but may as well get the info spot on for him. :)

    Actual amount doesn't really come into it, because you always put enough in to fill to the required level.
    The engine depends where you like to run it, I use about half way between the marks on the dipstick when cold and on the sidestand.
    It takes somewhere around 3 litre's with filter change.

    The primary is just filled to the bottom of the clutch basket with the bike upright. Around 900ml-1litre (1 quart) depending if the Primary cover was off.
    The transmission is also around 1 litre (1 quart), but use the dipstick with the bike upright.
