Introduzione

Questa guida ti mostrerà come cambiare l'olio della trasmissione su una Harley-Davidson Sportster Evolution.

La Evolution Sportster ha la frizione umida e unità primarie. Si raccomanda un primo cambio olio a 1.600 km, poi sostituirlo ogni 16.000 km.

Il produttore raccomanda l'uso di olio 20W50. assicurati che l'olio che intendi utilizzare sia congeniale all'utilizzo con frizione umida. Molti olii per auto non lo sono, consigliamo quindi di acquistare olio studiato per la trasmissione di motociclette. L'olio 75W90 per cambio viene spesso utilizzato al posto del 20W50 per queste applicazioni.

    • Per un migliore accesso allo spurgo, per un drenaggio ottimale e un accurato riempimento, raccomandiamo di lavorare con la moto assicurata in posizione rialzata.

    • Usando una chiave esagonale da 4 mm, rimuovi le due viti del tappo per l'ispezione della catena primaria.

    • Il tappo presente sulla tua moto potrebbe non essere rotondo, in base all'anno di produzione. Comunque si troverà nello stesso identico punto e assicurato con viti simili.

    • Rimuovi il tappo per l'ispezione dal carter della trasmissione.

    How do I get these off if they're real tight? I've already broken a few Allan keys trying and almost striped one of them

    I have same problem cannot move the inspection cover bolts -

    Skull -

    Use an impact screwdriver.

    Peter -

    Lightly tap the Allen wrench ( like driving a nail)with a rubber mallet due to aluminum corrosion. This helps free the Allen bolt

    • Il foro per il drenaggio dell'olio è posto sotto alla trasmissione sul lato sinistro della moto, vicino al tampone del cavalletto.

    • Metti un recipiente sotto al foro di drenaggio.

    • Usando una chiave, svita il tappo dal foro di drenaggio e rimuovilo.

    • Il tappo potrebbe richiedere una chiave da 16 mm oppure da 19 mm in base all'anno di produzione.

    • Permetti all'olio di uscire dalla trasmissione. Ci vorranno circa 5 minuti.

    • Mentre l'olio sta uscendo dalla trasmissione, pulisci il tappo del foro di drenaggio.

    • Usando un panno in microfibra o un tovagliolo di carta, pulisci il tappo, rimuovendo l'olio e la limatura metallica attaccata al magnete.

    • C'è un magnete sulla sommità del tappo per catturare tutti i residui di metalli ferrosi presenti nell'olio.

    • Usando una chiave Torx T27, rimuovi le quattro viti che tengono il carter d'ispezione della frizione in posizione.

    With this cover off, do I check anything or is this just to make sure all the oil has drained?

    Don -

    I saw somewhere it said to remove and replace these screws in sync, in a certain order? Why? And does it matter? I only have 4 screws on my '01 sportster. And how do you get the large O ring to stay in place when putting cap back on?

    Lori Parr -

    And how do you get the large O ring to stay in place when putting cap back on?

    Lori, I have the same question. Did you figure it out? My first attempt it slipped down and then the cover leaked when I tried to start it up. The ring is slightly stretched so I’m going to purchase a new one and see if it will stay in place any better. I will report back if it is any easier for the new one to stay in place.

    John Pile -

    Update: The new o’ring was much easier to install and get it to stay in place. $2 from Harley shop.

    John Pile -

    Interestingly, on my 1200 Sportster Custom (1996), I needed to use a T30 bit. My service manual also says T27, but they were definitely T30 for me.

    John Pile -

    How can I get the bolts out of the cover if they are stripped?

    • Inserisci uno strumento per fare leva nella fessura tra il carter per l'ispezione e l'alloggiamento dove i cavi della frizione entrano nel carter.

    • Rimuovi con delicatezza il coperchio di ispezione della frizione dal carter della trasmissione.

    • La molla del coperchio della frizione potrebbe cadere. Assicurati di non perderla e di rimetterla al suo posto prima di rimontare il coperchio.

    What should I look for while it's open?

    Marty Glynn -

    Not to mention that's where you check ur oil level for the trans but also ur clutch adjustment is be hind that cover. ( type in clutch adjustment for more info)

    • Re-inserisci il tappo nel foro di drenaggio e stringilo a mano.

    • Usando una chiave da 16 o 19 mm, stringi il tappo.

    • È importante non serrare troppo il tappo. Stringere troppo potrebbe rovinare i filetti d'alluminio del carter principale. Il tappo deve essere stretto ma non troppo. La coppia indicata è di 19-28,5 Nm.

    Why not just fill through the top of the oil tank????

    D penglase -

    That's not the same. The oil bag is the crankcase oil and this is showing

    The trans oil. The oil is the same(20w50) but it's two different compartments.

    Up N coming screwdriver -

    The oil is not necessarily the same depending on the bike, make sure you check your manual.

    I have a 2011 Iron 883 and the transmission requires GL-5 certified GEAR OIL (75w90).

    Derek -

    This is correct. Manuals will specify gear oil for transmission but conveniently you can use 20W-50 Synthetic V-Twin Motorcycle Oil for both engine and transmission lubricant. Amsoil Synthetic 20W-50 Synthetic V-Twin Motorcycle Oil is certified for motorcycle engines, transmissions, and chaincases. Whatever brand you go with it MUST specify motorcycle oil. Many folks are getting confused so I am including this message with each comment that is asking what kind of oil to use.

    Sir_Nerd -

    Make sure rubber o ring is in good condition, mine was smashed out and my oil leaked out. Bike ok. Thanks this site was very helpful. Like the steps and the information.

    • Inserisci l'imbuto nel foro di ispezione della trasmissione.

    • Versa lentamente circa 1 litro di olio nella trasmissione.

    • Mentre versi, controlla il foro d'ispezione della frizione. Assicurati che il livello dell'olio stia sotto il bordo del foro d'ispezione della frizione.

    • Potrebbe essere richiesto meno di un litro d'olio.

    what kind of oil

    tabfive99 -

    You can use Amsoil 20w50 Synthetic V-Twin Motorcycle Oil. It is certified for engine, transmission, and primary chaincase lubricant. Manuals will specify gear oil as well (75w90), which is also appropriate to use. Note as Eric Essen wrote that these oils are defined differently. Link to the Amsoil 20w50: https://www.amsoil.com/p/20w-50-syntheti...

    Sir_Nerd -

    You need to use a motorcycle gear oil.. DO NOT put regular motorcycle motor oil in the transmission. Which is what I almost did after reading this because up top it says 20/50 motor oil. I went to motorcycle shop and asked what kind of transmission oil to use. He said that some people say u r supposed to b able to use the motor oil, but NOT to, as it is bad for the bike. Use gear oil meant for motorcycle transmissions

    JWag -

    They say not to use 20w-50 for transmission.

    They recommend 75w-90. Gear oil.

    Make sure its says GEAR OIL.

    Thats what I run on mine.

    Alex Flotte -

    SAE 20w50 Motorcycle oil is what is recommended by Harley Davidson. Engine and gear oil are measured on different scales. SAE 20w50 is the same as 75w90 gear oil. Some modern synthetic automotive oils are not compatible with wet clutches. 20w50 is still the correct oil recommended by the manufacturer, just make sure not to buy an oil not approved for use with motorcycle clutches. http://www.harley-davidson.com/store/syn...

    Eric Essen -

    Amsoil 20w 50 is specifically for Harley motor oil and wet clutch, it is also the best.

    Dirk -

    Thanks very useful info for beginners

    henryaburchett58 -

    I poured a quart of primary oil and I still cannot feel the oil when I put my finger in there does it need another one

    garciacowboys73 -

    There's also a weep hole located on the back of the primary towards the bottom of the rear curve. You can pull that and put oil into primary until you see it coming out of said weep hole.

    • Prima di reinstallare il tappo d'ispezione della trasmissione, assicurati che l'O-ring di gomma all'interno dell'alloggiamento sia pulito e nella giusta posizione.

    • Assicurati che anche gli O-ring sulle viti che tengono il tappo siano in perfette condizioni.

    • Usando una chiave esagonale da 4 mm re-installa il tappo d'ispezione della trasmissione.

    What is the purpose of the inspection hole? Doesn't show oil level

    Doug -

    The inspection hole is used to set the timing.

    johnsonwjoseph -

    What if the shift linkage don't come back like it should

    I highly recommend the Lowbrow video on how to adjust the primary chain tension at 6 mins 49 seconds into the video:

    • Usando una chiave Torx T27, re-installa il coperchio d'ispezione della frizione. Installa le viti nel seguente ordine:

    • Alto

    • Basso

    • Sinistra

    • Destra

    • Una volta che tutte le viti sono leggermente puntate a mano, usa una chiave dinamometrica per stringerle con la giusta coppia di 9,5-16 Nm. Stringi le viti nello stesso ordine in cui sono state inserite.

    The 1991 Sportster has the small derby cover like the chain inspection cover and I am sure being a trans / primary I had to by two qts of sport trans and it's the 1st year of the 5 speed trans and belt drive on the xlh1200

Maicol -

Is synthetic 20w50 ok to use?

Jordan -

What the !&&* is a cluthc?

I change my my transmission oil exactly how it showed and yes the spring with the nut on the end came off and I put it right back. Now I have no tension at all in my clutch basically I have no clutch anymore. This is the first time I've taken the inspection plate off during a transmission fluid change. I usually drain it and automatically just put one quart in. What could I have done wrong?

Argyle -

Did you ever figure out what happened?

Jordan -

Tighten the screw will tighten. Clutch.clockwise or counter clock

James Burch -

Author neglected to say the first numbers on the torque specs are metric (Nm) not ft-lbs as written

Dfh -

Why is the primary chain inspection cover removed?

robin -

Derby cover is removed to insure the primary isn't overfilled.

Chris Moders -

is there not a screw that will drip when filled?

paulposey1997 -

Is Formula + okay to use in primary that shares stator coils? Does it have sulfur additives that can degrade red metals like copper in the stator?

Greg -

does motorcycle stand in vertical position or on its leg stand during oil level inspection ???

irakli ratiani -

Perfectly level in vertical position!Not leaning on jiffy stand.Have someone help you hold it perfectly level.

curtis mozack -

also youre not supposed to use the full quart it WILL puke out.

general rule is 28-29oz

donald ruddell -

What kind of washers are you using in the bolts where the mid controls used to be? My sportster is leaking from those two fixations.

xtremo_1989 -

Do I need two separate oils for transmission and engine?

chrisweidinger -

My 08 Sportster custom takes the same fluid for transmission as it does primary fluid because it shares the same cavity but ENGINE OIL CANNOT BE SHARED…

In the words of my local Harley Dealer

Anthony Torres Jr. -

You can use the same 20w50 oil in the engine and primary, as long as its jaso ma-2 which is for wet clutch. Also they are 2 separate cavitys thats why u have 2 separate drain plugs. Engine oil is held in the oil tank and primary is in the case.

20w-50 vtwin oil DUH. Come on dont be dumb

Dillon Kiddle -

Did my regular oil n changed oil filter in my 2008 xl883l sporty the did the timing chain case with synthetic. 1 week later redid it with hd regular timing chain oil. That synthetic had me hearing everything.

Jason Lilley -

Después de hacer el cambio de aceite de primaria, colocar la tapa y arrancar la moto la zona de transmidion a comenzado hacer un sólido molesto que chirría y las marchas van algo más de duras, incluso cuesta de colocar el punto muerto esto sucede en marchas cortas pero alargando tercera y cuarta el sonido apfnas se percibe. Alguien podría decirme que sucede, es posible que el embrague este demasiado tenso.

caballerolopezmiguelangel -

very helpful.i have an 88 1200 sportster i’m changing oil on. the manual just says use h-d sport tranny fluid, ok, never heard of it. every sportster i’ve had uses 75w90 gear oil,or 20w50 V-TWIN formula oil. different than 20w50 auto oil,which doesn’t work with the wet clutch as a bike has. and don’t use 75w90 gear oil for trucks and cars because it may have special additives to reduce friction,which will cause your clutches to slip as those additives are for making slippery. my current oil in it stunk like only gear oil does. so i guess u can use gear oil or 20w50 bike oil in the primary.primary and tranny both use same fluid on a sportster.

shelbster -

hey guys question is anyone knows the diameter for the splined shifter shaft that goes thru the primary cover for a

2004-2005 sportster 883-1200xl custom or point me in the direction of where i can find the specs i read some where that the diameter the bushing goes into is .485in or roughly a 1/2in

my email is ratrod420@yahoo.com

thank you kindly to whom ever has the information

C Counti -

I change primary/trans oil every 2nd oil change. insp. and adjust chain, then i can get back to cruising around, beating up old ladies and snatching their handbags. !

Michael Hundhausen -

Looking at above comment, do I really need to remove the inspection plate? Don’t want to find myself with no clutch either! Is it sufficient to measure what comes out and replace with same amount rather than remove the inspection plate?

Pauline Fieth -

That may get you close but you really should remove the inspection cover so you know for sure that it is not over-filled.

Sir_Nerd -

what about clutch oil?

Zobayer Eusufzai -

You can use Amsoil 20w50 Synthetic V-Twin Motorcycle Oil. It is certified for engine, transmission, and primary chaincase lubricant. That's what makes it convenient because you can just buy four bottles of it and you're ready to replace the engine oil and the transmission oil at the same time. It MUST specify motorcycle lubricant. Manuals will specify gear oil as well (75w90), which is also appropriate to use. Note as Eric Essen wrote that these oils are defined differently. Link to the Amsoil 20w50: https://www.amsoil.com/p/20w-50-syntheti...

Sir_Nerd -

I changed my oil and trans fluid about 4 months ago and since I've done that for the first two weeks my clutch shifted nice and easy now it's hard as hell to put it in neutral from first gear or from first gear to second gear from there on it's just fine but not sure what true issue is I'm going to change fluid and trans fluid again and see if any shaving come out on my plug or in fluid has anyone had this problem before and if so does it sound like my clutch plates need to be replaced there is maybe 85,000 miles on it if you can get back I would appreciate it thank you my email is matthewschatz02@gmail.com just looking for some advice but the diagram of top does help me a lot so thank you very much for your help I appreciate it nice to meet you guys
