I bought my first Harley ... a '90 Sportster 883 bored to a 1200, last Wednesday, so yes your video was very helpful.
Awesome! Ride safe 😁👍
I bought my FIRST bike ever! a 1996 XLH883 sportster with a screaming eagle kit on it and 9k miles!
Doing the oil this morning and my new Dunlop tires are on their way!
Thanks for your video!
Hey Ryan! That’s Awesome! Have fun, ride safe! 😁👍
Great!!! Thank you, I am a new owner of a 1995 Sportster 883... still learning.
Thanks DT 😁👍 ride safe!
Here is a tip, remove the oil filler cap from the tank when draining the oil. It will drain faster.
Great tip Joseph! It’s in the next oil change video 😁👍
Helps even more if the oil is changed immediately after a ride. Oil flows faster when hot.
Perfect Thank you that confirms what i need to do first thing in the morning before a sunday blast on my 03 1200!
😁👍
Thanks man for the help.I was looking all over for the oil plug/hose.Thanks brother be safe.
😁👍
Right on Man! I love TH-cam. 👍
Thank you very much! I Appreciate the positivity
I'm just learning so this is perfect thank you
Awesome! Glad it was helpful
That was a super helpful video. I watched someone do it a year ago and couldn't remember what hose was oil or primary. Thanks
😁👍 ride safe!
Thank you for this
You’re welcome, glad it was helpful!
Yes ! Wondering where drain was . Good to gp now !!
😁👍
Good video. Super clean bike as well, you should make a video on how you clean it
Thanks Jordan! You’ve got a great idea 😁👍
Decent
😁👍
You’re supposed to pour oil in the filter before it goes back on. Prolly a good idea too to leave the drain hose off and wait until oil is coming out to out it back on to force air out.
Thanks for commenting, it helps the channel!
dumbest thing i ever heard if thats the case just open the oil cap no need to take the hose off and what about cars when the filter is upside down ? just put the oil and filter on start bike oil light goes out rock on
Great video.. I hope you could show a three hole oil change on 2000 sportster 833
Hey Don! I appreciate the comment 😁👍 I’ve got a primary video as well th-cam.com/video/40dy49vX-4Q/w-d-xo.htmlsi=-2clqPNStoQOOGaD
Have you had any issues with your primary chane making a ticking noise at startup or rising steady slow speeds
Hey Marla! Sportsters are noisy bikes by nature but tightening the chain to spec and changing the oil and filling to full might help any excess noise. If the noise is really loud you might have a broken tooth or debris in the case. I had a little bit of metal shavings on the magnetic plug from chain and Sprocket wear. I also noticed that my foot shifter was loose and changing gears was crunchy, so I cleaned and tightened that. Hopefully that gives you a few places to look, thanks for the comment!
I live in Florida south should I still use 20w50 ? Thank you for your video now I know I can do it myself like everything else I have replaced.
Thank you!
Hot climates Harley recommends 60 weight in all sportsters.
1999 sportster 1200 here, am I safe putting 3 quarts in the tank and just putting some in the filter before reinstalling? Is that enough oil?
Yes! 👍 That’s what I do too
@@ChrisBassettTV thanks!!
3.6 quarts brand new off the line engine un-lubed. 3.0 quarts when replacing used oil any time.
I live in South Florida should I still use 20w 50?
Thank you for this video now I know I can do it myself like everything else I have replaced. I love to worm on my truck now I want to do the same for my bike!
Thanks Mr. Boyd! I really appreciate the positive feedback, I’m glad the video was helpful! As for your question, Harley Davidson recommends SAE 20w-50 oil for all weather conditions, below 40 degrees SAE 10w40 and above 80 degrees SAE 60 H-D. If your bike is air cooled like mine might be worth putting in the heavier oil during the hottest months
Have you ever done a full purge of your oil??
Nope, the bike only has 9k miles and I bought it used… I’ve done 2 oil changes, this season I might do extra maintenance
What about primary oil?
Check out my other video 👍1994-2003 Harley-Davidson Sportster Primary/Transmission Oil Change fixed my rough/sticky shifting th-cam.com/video/40dy49vX-4Q/w-d-xo.html
hi!
how many oil for the change?
thanks!
Hey Richard! Approximately 3 quarts…. The oil tank holds 3.3 😁👍
ok thanks!!
and i have one more question 🙂
i use 20w40 oil for the primer oil..
this type is good for the oil change?
sorry im not the best is english..🙂

@@ChrisBassettTV thankyouthankyou 🙂
883 and 1200 take the same amount of oil??
Yup… it’s different if according to what year the bike is…
How many quarts go in the tank
What year is your bike?
3 if it's an Evo engine. It holds 3.5 but only top up three after a change. 3.5 is into a brand new engine build with no existing fluids.
I have used super crap oil in my lawn mower and turned black after a couple of mowings and as far as fram filters if you pay 30 grand + each for a couple race engines you NEVER use fram crap again either !!
😁👍
Why is it only 86-2000? I thought the 96-03 bikes were all the same?
You are correct! that's a typo on my side. I'm taking my information from my Clymer Harley-Davidson Manual. 86-90, 91-93 and 94-03 have different oil drain hose configurations. I appreciate the catch, Thank you.
@@ChrisBassettTV all good I was confused as I have a 98 and my brother an 01 and was sure they were the same. Thanks for getting back to me.

Thats top tank only takes 2.5 qts,
😁👍
Only problem I have with this video is that, if you used the old oil on the new filter seal, you are applying contaminated oil with metal shavings to a rubber seal. Always use clean new oil to the seal.
👍
3.6 quarts ...i always do 3 quarts
😁👍
Then why are you here?
The oil that you're using junk the filter junk. When you unclamp the hose why don't you take out the dipstick it'll flow faster instead of creating a vacuum. And you always put fresh clean oil on the new rubber on the filter not old oil.
Removing the dipstick is a great idea, Thanks for commenting.
hey genius who makes super tech oil ? pensoil does sit down you drain the fucken oil out in 3000 miles anyway you fool who the fuck wants top spend 12 a qt when super tech is 5.88 a qt
You did all the bad things
😂😂
No, No...From the manual " pour about 4 fluid ounces of fresh, clean oil into the new oil filter. Allow time for the oil to soak into the filter element. Partially fill oil filter before installation to minimize the time required for build-up of oil pressure when the engine is started."...ref: 2003 Harley-Davidson Owner's Manual, Sportster Models, Engine Oil and Oil Filter, page 96
Thanks Jake 👍
