Look at the various videos online (youtube and fixmyhog). The main thing is to not spill oil when removing the oil filter. Ruins the front engine mount.
Nothing special, just drain the oil, change the filter, add three quarts of oil. You do know where the oil drain is on the frame just below the transmission behind the exhaust pipes. The primary holds 36-44 ounces, and the transmission holds 20-24 ounces of oil.
Whatever fluid you changed, it wasn't the engine oil. The transmission and primary chaincase both hold about a quart. Looks like you have a job to finish. If you want to do minor service yourself BUY AN OWNER'S MANUAL!!! They are only $20 from a dealer.
Either the seals were not installed correctly or your tubes and sliders are excessively worn. Not changing the fork oil at recommended intervals will cause excessive wear. Overfilling the forks will cause leaks too.
