Normal manufacturer suggested intervals are likely observed.

You environment and riding habits may\will affect this.
Every other oil change.
Primary

Thank you for the info, guess I should have stated my question better but found what I was looking for, wanted to be able to run the rotella 10,000 miles between changes. Just thought it might be better than syn in the clutch. Not new to bikes but new to Harley so things are a little different.
Hey Dave, what is the best oil?:hitfan

I`ve been running whatever 20w50 is on sale for 26 years, should I switch to a 10 dollar per quart synthetic?:rollin

OP: Rotella will be fine in the primary.
Primary oil......6-8k. Its a low demand oil. Hd says 10k I think......

Baby oil......8k. Coconut oil....6k. Peanut oil......well....someone has to squeeze Peanut and we'll go from there. Any takers......???

Happy Ending for Peanut......step right up.....
im not squeezing peanut ill let ya'll have at that. :eek
Coward ........
