Hey all,
I am certain this has been answered, I am just not finding my same situation.
I have a 2015 RoadGlide Special with 7,000 miles on it. Ran the bike for a few minutes, waited a few minutes and checked the oil to notice just the tip of the dipstick had oil on it.
I added about 2 quarts of oil and is now half way up the dipstick on the jiffy stand measurement. Rode around town and noticed oil pressure was not fluctuating as much as it did before. Sweet!. Rode to work, putting about 80 miles on it and the bike started to act like it was lugging. Would twist the throttle but had very little acceleration and would shake.
Parked the bike and noticed oil residue on the underside of my Arlen Ness Air Cleaner.
Started it back up a few days later to see what it would do and had a burning oil smell. No smoke from exhaust, just smell.
Did I overfill or what is going on?
All I can find is people having oil around air cleaner but not having performance issues. With me having both, I am stuck.
