Bring engine to operating temperature and then remove the 5/8 inch hex drain plug at the lfet front side of the oil pan. Change the filter also if the oil needs to be changed.

later procedure, should be the same for 2001

Remove the oil fill cap, and there\'s a dipstick attached.



The cap looks like this:

Although I don't work on 2000 and later model bikes, I'm pretty sure that the oil pan can be removed from the bottom of the transmission just as the older model bikes were.

Good Luck

I can't send you a picture but according to the drawing, the oil drain plug is in the bottom of the transmission oil pan. It should be the standard hex head type drain plug. Actually the drawing shows two drain plugs, one on the bottom and one on the front fo the oil pan. The countersunk hex pipe plug in the front of the pan looks like it's for draining the transmission. Notice the shape of the gasket. The engine oil is in the pan and the transmission oil drains down through the pan.

drain trans and engine oils and remove pan bolts and you should be able to remove or lower enough to change gasket.

Remove the pan, clean both gasket surfaces, wipe a light film of silicone on both surfaces, then stick the new gasket back to the surface and mount the oil pan back on.

Your local dealer can give you the torque specs, but just making them 1/2 turn past finger tight works, too. Don't ride for a couple hours after you're done, so the silicone has time to set up.

the oil tank is on the bottom of the transmission in your RK. There are two drain plugs. The plug towards the front left of the pan is the oil drain plug. The other one is for the transmission.

Drain the oil, replace the filter, refill with three quarts of oil and you're ready to go. The dipstick has two marks on it. The upper mark is "FULL HOT", and the lower mark is "FULL COLD". Do not overfill.

Don't forget to service the transmission and the primary at their recommended intervals.

Good Luck

The tank on your Road King is on the bottom of the transmission. Look underneath the transmission and you'll see two drain plugs. The plug on left front of the oil pan is the engine oil drain. The plug near the center of the pan is the transmission drain plug. Good Luck, Steve
