It was time for an oil change on my 2005 Harley Davidson Road King so I figured I'd make a how to video in case anyone was interested.
Pretty basic stuff here, but sometimes its nice to have a refrence to look at when/if your new to motorcycles or not used of diy projects.
I like to do my own maitenence and repairs when possible in order to save some money and I really find it enjoyable.
so here is the video I hope you find it useful please leave comments or questions in the comments section and if you haven't yet please subscribe to our youtube channel.

The most illustrative video about RK oil change. If this is your idea of nothing fancy, keep doing non fancy videos. Thanks man, thumbs up and safe rides 👍🏻

Nicely done. I am facing my first fluid change on my '05 FLHRI (purchased used). Everyone says look at the service manual for the oil plug location, I don't see it there but you showed it well.

@Touringmidwest Год назад

I’m glad it helped you

@cigarobsession 9 лет назад

Fantastic edit!

+John Sigman right, it's such a handy tool, doesn't seem to work quite as well on my me bike but maybe they make an updated model im not sure, thanks for watching and commenting.

@jasoncovington2852 3 года назад

Thanks brother

@Touringmidwest 3 года назад

No problem

@mikesuperglide 6 лет назад

Nice video, thanks. Regarding the metal shavings (which can be normal), this engine has a historical issue with failing cam chain tensioners which can produce metal shavings if not inspected for replacement. Google "twin cam 88 cam chain tensioner" and you'll see that many people think this should have been a factory recall issue, but wasn't. Good luck.

@Touringmidwest 6 лет назад

Yes sir, totally aware of that. O actually traded that bike off in 2015 for my Road Glide Ultra so no worries.

@Backyardrestomods 7 лет назад

The small shavings on the drain plug is clutch plate fibers it's normal

@williamthomas3263 6 лет назад

Thanks! Question unrelated to the oil change. I like you passenger seat back. Is that a Harley addition or did you buy that after market? If so, where from and what brand is it?

@Touringmidwest 6 лет назад

William Thomas that bike has a detachable Harley Davidson king tour pack on it

@williamthomas3263 6 лет назад

Touring Midwest Thanks. I've got a regular seat back on the same bike, bit my wife wants more comfort...and I don't want to buy a new ultra glide lol. Thanks!

@Touringmidwest 6 лет назад

William Thomas I love having a tour pack, I don't think I could go back to not having one

@williamthomas3263 6 лет назад

Touring Midwest Defiantly upgrading. Thanks!!

@punkrockscott68 5 лет назад

I appreciate your video I have a 2004 Road King classic. Did you mention how much oil you put in, in total? I didn't hear that part. Also, how high is the oil on the dipstick? I know that its very important to not over fill. Also, do you have video's on changing the other oils and how much to use? Thank you

@Touringmidwest 5 лет назад

I cannot recall if I mentioned it or not.. probably not I always recommended referring to the owners manual for your specific model and year motorcycle. I do have videos for engine, transmission and primary oil changes on my Road Glide as well.. they would be a very similar process for all Harley Touring models and years. ru-vid.com/group/PLhk3c-U3jks7xvpEwgSlVL0x7xA3ClVmk

@ryandrew3624 5 лет назад

It’s about 3.75 quarts to get at the half way point

@ryandrew3624 5 лет назад

I use three and a half start it run it till hot again then start checking the level and add as needed.

@socal-fishing-7608 7 лет назад

Did you change the filter and O ring? Thx nice video.

@Touringmidwest 7 лет назад

+SoCal-FISHING-760 yes I did.

@donaldmoore9117 7 лет назад

I noticed your back tire.... Avon? I am using Avon back tires now. 85 bucks a piece in north east Ohio. How much are they there?

@Touringmidwest 7 лет назад

+Donald Moore man, I'm thinking those were Michelin on that bike. It's been awhile though. I prefer Dunlop. I'm not sure what Avons cost around here, I can find it though.

@elcambiochingon3357 7 лет назад

gracias very good video now I can do it my self I can see is easy and going save some $$$ thank you

@Touringmidwest 7 лет назад

+fernando lozano glad to help. It's Always better when you can do it yourself! Stay safe out there

@michaelkelly9012 7 лет назад

@Touringmidwest 7 лет назад

@michaelstoak3525 3 года назад

How long did it take until the popcorn was done?

@Touringmidwest 3 года назад

@PaulieUncle 8 лет назад

Great info, save me giving my cash to the dealer.

@Touringmidwest 8 лет назад

glad to help. dealers and shops are great and they have their place but no sense in letting them nickel and dime you for those simple projects.

@rubbersole79 6 лет назад

Some people pour a few oz. of oil into the filter before installing it.

@Touringmidwest 6 лет назад

No need for that, Just a little around the gasket.

@martincvitkovich724 6 лет назад

The notch in the oil filter tool is to provide clearance for the timing position sensor. The filter can only be turned about one flat on the tool, and needs to be re-positioned each flat. I wonder how many sensors are torn up by using this tool incorrectly as shown in this video.

@hdtech73 6 лет назад

The cutout on the tool is for the CKP sensor, but there is no need to turn it reposition, turn it, reposition etc. There is plenty of room for the tool if you are being half ways intentive. The bikes with oil cooler adapters have less room to deal with but with patience, you will be successful without damaging anything

@jodydennis4655 5 лет назад

I don't know maybe the weight of the oil was some knowledge you could have shared. have two people say 2050 have two people say 10:40 the other half don't say anything like your video

@Touringmidwest 5 лет назад

I use 20w50
