:hi:Hi from KY state as long as you learn from your mistakes and if we all didn't make them there would be no reason for this site. everyone has an opinion and when I can't decide I go right to the source. When it came time to do oil change I reviewed the info on this site. There were so many choices I just called BigDog they are very helpful and gave all the infromation I was looking for. Wayne was the guy I talked to depending on what type of frame you have determines the size of oil tank you have, there's a 2 3/4 qt, 3 qt and a 3.5 qt thats determined by the serial# or project# on the frame. They recommend high grade oils the brands they gave me were Redline or H-D (?). This is a great site and I've gotten alot of help. By the way I didn't go out and buy that 100.00 scavenge kit I cut the end off of and old oil filter and cut the bottom of a 2 liter bottle it worked just fine.:cheers:
