it's the oil line that connects directly to the center post of the frame, under the oil tank, towards the very bottom. It is connected to a 3-way and is the shortest one about 3 - 4 inches long. It is held on by a hose clamp. Just unclasp, pull hose off the nub and let it drain. (warm bike up & remove oil cap for better flow)
Follow the hose that goes to the frame from the oil tank. Loosen the clamp and pull.
Plug gap for the Sportster 883 or 1200 should be .040
The drain plug is under the engine, near the kick stand.
Look for the oil line coming off the oil tank connected to the bottom of the frame.Remove clamp,pull hose off and let drain.
The 82 had the plug on the bottom of the oil tank. No plug on cases.
The oil drain plug on a 1999 Dyna Wide Glide is located on the bottom of the engine. It is on the right side of the engine.
Check out the pictures at the following website. The drain plug is toward the rear of the bike, in front of the rear tire. http://www.harleydavidsonmaintenance.com/sportster-oil-change.html
recently bought a 883 up. to 1200 with no manuel need to know what kind of oil i should use and where to add this oil also where is the oil drain plug thanks
There is no transmission drain plug. Your transmission uses the same oil from the primary. Draining your primary drains your transmission.
the trans and primary fluid on a sportster are the same (1 qt sport trans) look for the drain under the derby cover.
there is no need for an engine oil drain plug, because when the oil filter is removed and the oil is drained from the oil tank (by way of the oil tank drain hose located by/under the battery box) there is no oil that remains in the engine.
That plug is the drain plug for the primary and transmission oil supply.
