Oil Applications
Refer to Regular Service Intervals: 2012 Dyna Models for all control connections and parts.
Vehicle should be oiled at regular intervals, particularly after washing motorcycle or driving in wet
weather.
Front Fork Oil
Refer to Regular Service Intervals: 2012 Dyna Models. Have a Harley Davidson dealer
drain the front fork oil and refill at proper intervals. If fork does not appear to be working properly
or an appreciable amount of oil leakage should develop, see a Harley Davidson dealer. If there is
insufficient oil in either side of fork, the rebound action will be incorrect.
Fuel Filter
A fuel filter is attached to the fuel pump. See a service manual or Harley Davidson dealer for fuel
filter maintenance.
Clutch
The clutch control cable must be oiled and adjusted
periodically to compensate for lining wear. See
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULING in this manual. Failure to oil
and adjust the clutch control cable can result in equipment
damage. (00203b)
