My 2007 ultra classic while riding, I smell oil. When parked or in the garage of my house there are no drips on the pavement. However when changing the oil, there is oil on the bottom of the crankcase and the drain plug has slight oily residue on it. I am unable to locate where the oil is coming from. I thought at first that I was over filling the crankase with too much oil and during the last change I reduced the amount from 4 quarts to 3.5 quarts. Same issue is occuring.
Has anyone else had this issue? If so what will I need to fix the issue myself?
I spoke with my local dealer and they want 700.00 just to remove the primary to take a look at it and find the leak. This seems excessive to me.
Thanks for your help.
