- Welcome to another Video! Today we're performing a Full 3 "Hole" Oil change on a 2011 Harley-Davidson Street Glide FLHX 103. However this will be the same for the majority of Harley Davidson touring models. A 3 "Hole" Oil Change includes Motor Oil, Transmission Oil and the Primary Oil. When performing an Oil Change it is highly recommended to do a full "once over" on your bike. Ex. is your T-Clocs. if you are unsure of T-Clocs here is a checklist from the motorcycle safety foundation or MSF. www.msf-usa.org/downloads/T-C...

As always thanks for watching! Hopefully today's video was insightful! Let me know down below! Catch y'all next week!
Awesome Video! Probably the quickest/easiest Oil change video I’ve watched 👍🏻 awesome job!
Thanks for watching!
Excellent video on oil change. Impressive. Many of these videos are absolutely worthless but this is plain and simple. Great job and thank you.
Thank you John! I appreciate that.
You always make things look so easy, thanks for the information
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for sharing this video on how you do your oil change, it’s good to see how other people do theirs, hopefully in the future I’ll get a lift like yours, I have a 16 FLHXS. I use full synthetic due to the cold starts up north.
Thank you for watching! Keep an eye out for whenever harbor freight runs a deal! That’s how we snagged that one. Hope to see you in the comment section in the future! Ride safe 🤙🏻
Awesome video, easy to follow ,thanks for sharing 👍
Thanks for watching!
Another great video looking forward to the next one
Thanks for watching!
One of my favorite bikes
Excellent video!
Thanks for watching!
Great video nice job
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks for the video! Where did you get your lift?
Where did you get the side extensions for your lift?
what size oil filter i have a 2011 Harley davidson street glide first timer
Why not use the mobile1 in all three holes? On the bottle is says it’s to be used for motor oil, gear oil and transmission gear?
Why are you adding 80W-140 GEAR OIL in the primary? In the trans this is fine. Primary and engine 20W-50 synthetic motor oil.
Actually you can run gear oil in the primary. 20W-50 crankcase oil converts to 75W-90 in the chaincase
I was gonna comment the same thing I believe you put it backwards. The gear oil should’ve went into the transmission and then the mobile one should’ve went into the primary. No?
I noticed you use mobile one for the engine oil have you ever had any problems at any problems as do you feel it breaks down have you burnt oil and how often do you change it I'm thinking of doing the same
I haven't noticed anything. Haven't broken a motor down or had to for that matter to know what the cylinders or pistons look like. But i've been running mobile 1 for years and thousands of miles but everyone seems to have their own preference on what oil's to run lol
Draining and filling Primary better when bike is straight. Not on Jiffy Stand? Thank's and Good Morning.
Straight up is ideal, but gotta work with what ya got🤙🏻
6 oz shy on the Primary.... 38 ounces "wet" Trans is 28 ounces "wet" over by 4 ounces
Kyle does your dad (employee...lol) put any heat thread paste on the plugs? I don't! Torco came in today 😉
On the Oil filter have you used the WIX XP Synthetic oil filter? HD's is just a generic filter. Really!
On gas for the bike. Im a M8 107. Do you use the middle octane gas or high octane?
Thanks!
HAHA not an employee. That was his bike.. he works on his I work on mine🤣 we don’t use anything on the plugs.. other than the o-rings. Harley’s can sometimes have oil pressure issues if you use certain aftermarket filters, that’s why we stick with HD and also because their always in stock when I need them. I always use 93-94 octane.. if I use anything lower I add octane booster. If you use anything lower than 91 it will throw a check engine light and idle like
crap.
How does a 2011 have that new screen? And ABS? Great video but wanted to ask
It was a fat head cycle conversion with a Sony Ax7000 radio. Harley came out with ABS as an optional upgrade beginning in 2008 I believe.
I purchased all the items needed to do the 3-hole change. However, when I reread the manual (2021 FLTRXSE - CVO RG) it indicates that I need to change the engine oil at 5k, the primary at 10k, and the transmission at 20k. Based on your 3 hole change video, you do change all 3 every 5k or do you follow the manual? If you do change all 3 at 5k, can you share your reasons for doing so? Thank you very much.
You can follow the manual, nothing wrong with that but I always change all 3 because an extra 2 quarts isn’t that much money and that way I keep it consistent. Just how I do it. I also like to just because everything is air cooled. Just my preference.
@@MotoHeadKyle Thank you very much for your response and for sharing while you do it this way. I agree, it certainly is inexpensive. In your last comment you mentioned you also like to change the oil because it is air cooled. Forgive my ignorance, but if you don’t mind again, can you explain the significance of this? Many thanks, ride and be safe
@@pd6569 In simple terms Harley only uses the outside air flow to cool everything and keep it from overheating, so therefore if you’re sitting in traffic idling and stuff the heat will eventually break down the oil so therefore the oil isn’t as effective for liberating purposes
Primary takes 38 ounces and trans 28 ounces 👍
14 to 21 ft lbs. Is the torque spec. For drain plugs. 😋 just playing bit snugged up is close.
If you have a torque wrench that’s calibrated
Do you put any oil in the NEW oil filter before you install it? As we do on cars?
Yes you can, some don’t because of the angle to screw it back on (to prevent it from leaking back out) but if you let it soak in for awhile you should be good!
@@MotoHeadKyle Thanks! I did the last time I changed oil on my 2002 Road King SE CVO and I tilted the bike so it leaned a little left with an orange strap holding it from falling and only spilled a drop or two on the frame. I didn't know if I should have left it empty or if filling it was required, so I APPRECIATE YOU CLEARING THAT UP FOR ME! Thanks!
@@DIZEMANPHOTO absolutely no problem! Oil in the filter is always best but I’ve done it dry before and have never had any issues! Ride safe!
No need number one because of the angle, number to your oil pump is located where? This is not sitting next to the oil pump so you will not have any start.
I bought my first Harley. Road King 2019 107. Dyna2 system. William Harley put 3 different bays for oil in. I was really taken back on that one! Is Torco trans oil easy to find?
Should look at a floor lift jack at Harbor freight. Not like yours. Just the jack off floor. Any suggestions.
Those oil filters are Synthetic filters...right?
What a sweet first bike! Congrats! Torco is hit or miss at my local HD Dealers. However the dealership I use they always have it in stock. I know Amazon Carries it, but it’s more pricey than what I pay at HD for a quart. Honestly I always just use the generic HD Filters. Never had an issue. I also have one of those floor jacks… works great 👍🏻
@@MotoHeadKyle kyle I have a question...
The bike is cold at the moment ok. I was just checking the motor oil cold...
I then checked the Trans. I sat on bike so its straight/standing...
"Is the trans oil suppose to register cold once I hand screwed the trans stic back in and then out? I know its cold.
On a truck I check while idling... lol But I saw your vid. Bike not running.... Please inform me
@@woodworm3615 it will register cold.. but It’s always best to check it while it’s hot. Doesn’t have to be running.
@@MotoHeadKyle i have it on jiffy stand now. I will unscrew the 3/8's allen head and bring it out in the light and carefully look for a clear line. Hard to see since its clear and not dirty like motor dept oil can get.
If it isn't registering cold I would be concerned.
@@woodworm3615 also worth noting the trans dip… should be a straight dip stick.. those should be checked with the bike upright. The motor dipstick pivots so that can be checked upright or on the jiffy.
Is all the oil the same.? Sorry my first harley
All 20W 50 fully synthetic
for some reason this guy put gear oil in the primary. I didn't know that was a thing. 20w-50 oil specifically designed for V-twins goes in all three holes. However you can also use gear oil in the transmission for a smoother shift. The manual states that you can use either but the motor oil in the transmission will cause a louder shift noise
Can you turn the music off! You can hear what your saying over the music, the wrenching and him dropping the tools
Thought was a porno at first, lol great job
🤣🤣🤣🤣
You better get your tork specs it’s important
Took specs only work if your tool is constantly calibrated👍🏻
Please turn that ship music off! UGH!!! Why do people have to put that god awful beats,,, just shoot the video,,, Other than that, thank you for sharing.
🤣🤣 where’s your music-less channel?
I thought that big-faced entertainment screen didn't come out until 2014.
It’s an aftermarket set up
@@MotoHeadKyle Nice I likey. I want one.
@@tking780 Stay tuned, I have a video coming out in the next week or so about it
@@MotoHeadKyle Ok. Kool!
I just watched and thought the same … 👍🏼
