Four advantages of a dry sump lubrication system compared to wet sump?
One advantage of a dry sump is that the stored oil is contained into a separate tank. Another advantage is that there is an increase engine reliability. The third advantage of a dry sump is that the excess air is removed from the crankcase leaving the oil pan dry. The fourth advantage is the horsepower has also increased because there is less viscous drag.

Where is the oil drain on a 1995 Harley Davidson softail?
The 1995 Harley uses a dry sump oil system so there is no need for a drain plug on the crank case. Instead there is a black rubber hose directly in front of the rear tire that is connected to a plug on the frame with a hose clamp. Remove this hose from the plug and drain the oil tank thru the hose. Replace the hose and tighten the clamp. Then refill the tank with the correct amount of oil. Unlike a car which uses a wet sump system and requires a oil pan, the Harley uses an oil tank. The oil is pumped from this thru the engine and back to the tank. Because of Harley having a dry sump and using a tank as described above, for those of you with early Evo's and Shovels, because the oil pump can only return so much oil to the tank, if your bike sits for a week or more, oil forcing its way past a valve to your dry sump motor, when started, will bypass and drain all over the ground. Common problem, nothing wrong, just remember to put a pan under before starting.

What are advantages of a dry clutch compared to a wet clutch?
A wet clutch sits in the engine oil, which cools it and keeps it clean. As the clutch wears, the engine oil washed off the metal dust, which is then removed from the oil by the oil filter. A dry clutch isn't cleaned or cooled by anything (other than air). If you take the clutch cover off, you'll see a bunch of metal dust in there. Generally speaking, automobiles have dry clutches and motorcycles have wet clutches. A notable exception is Ducati's motorcycles, which have dry clutches. Advantages of a wet clutch: -lasts longer -handles abuse better (e.g., can stay partially engaged without overheating) Advantages of a dry clutch: -doesn't contaminate the engine oil -more efficient in terms of power transfer (since the oil in a wet clutch absorbs some of the energy that would normally go to the transmission)
