Engine oil change every 5000 miles
Primary every 10000 miles
Transmission every 20000 miles

Your owner's manual even says this....

I used Rotella T diesel oil in my shovels for years. I also used it in my 84 Evo, never had a issue with it.

I’ve always changed all three at 5k, but I may stretch out the primary and transmission per the manual with the cost of oil going up so much.

3-5K for engine. Primary and tranny depends on time. If we do some local parades, primary gets changed or next oil change.
Running across desert to Vegas or Laughlin and cruising Strip. Round trip is close thousand some times. It gets changed when arriving home. Hot weather tough on our engines and oil
My 2-cents

Do you switch to a straight 50 or 60 weight in hot weather?

I knew I shouldn't have started this thread, lol! Just wanted to help some brotha's out by letting them know about a good sale on oil, lol! Wasn't trying to start ANOTHER "Oil Thread", like the other 972 of them. Shoulda known better I guess, lol! It's off the rails now, so have it.

I heard peanut butter oil helps quiet down the top end clatter.

Writing "OIL' on a Harley forum is akin to hollering "GUN" on a city street. Some will duck, or run, or show your theirs, or tell you the best carry caliber, etc. etc. etc.
