Oil Check

[B.Bob]

I have about 500 miles on my recently triked 2000 Road King. My question is sense the oil used to be checked on the kickstand is there any compensation needed to check the oil as a Trike?

Not sure but you may need to use triglide dipstick. Maybe some others will know for sure:Flag:

I believe my dip stick has two different markings, one for on the kick stand and the other for vertical. I have a Triglide however you could probably get one of those dipsticks.

Welcome to the forum.

bob welcome aboard. your oil should be about a 1/4 inch higher on the stick. Some Harley dip sticks have a graduation for that based on the bike having a sidecar attached. look real close on bothsides and see if you see a little higher markings.

Hi bob
Harley says to check the other side of the dip stick and go mid way from the other side.
