NOTE:
The performance of new motorcycle initial service is required to keep your new motorcycle
warranty in force and to assure proper emissions system operation.
Refer to Regular Service Intervals: 2005 Softail Models. After a new motorcycle has been
ridden its first 1000 miles (1600 kilometers), it should be taken to the dealer from whom it was
purchased for initial service operations.
NOTE:
Because of unique design features, Springer models require the first scheduled maintenance at
500 miles (800 kilometers).
Engine Lubrication
Do not switch lubricant brands indiscriminately because
some lubricants interact chemically when mixed. Use of
inferior lubricants can damage the engine. (00184a)
Engine oil is a major factor in the performance and service life of the engine. Always use the
proper grade of oil for the lowest temperature expected before the next scheduled oil change.
Refer to Recommended Engine Oils. Your authorized dealer has the proper oil to suit your
requirements.
If it is necessary to add oil and Harley Davidson oil is not available, use an oil certified for diesel
engines. Acceptable diesel engine oil designations include: CF 4, CG 4, CH 4 and CI 4.
The preferred viscosities for the diesel engine oils in descending order are: 20W50, 15W40 and
10W40.
At the first opportunity, see an authorized dealer to change back to 100 percent Harley Davidson
oil.
