- 2004 Harley Davidson Ultra Classic Electra Glide Fork Oil Change- Super Easy! | Techn' Moto
Hey I came up with a new way to change the fork oil on my Harley Electra Glide Ultra Classic. Especially for the left side fork which is a cartridge and can't be filled from the top. Check out how I do it, it really does make the job a lot easier.

I use a 60ml/2oz syringe- amzn.to/3t5PNqi
Adapter- amzn.to/300ORlM

Excellent video! Minimal equipment and skill needed. That means even I can do it!
No - if I can do it anyone can 😂 thanks for the support
Thank you so much for this post. I’ve just ordered a half litre syringe so it can be filled with the correct amount of oil in one go.
cool
After filling the left fork, install the upper cap before trying to install the drain screw. That creates an 'air lock' which will reduce how much oil comes out when removing the filler hose to install the drain screw.
Dude great idea thanks.
Techn' Moto, thanks for the tip. Good ingenuity. I'll be using it for sure. Stay safe riding.
Thanks for the kind words. They make a tool/pump that does the same. This is my cheap version of that.
Enjoyed the video lots of info including how much fluid on each side keep on keeping on .
Thanks 🙏
I just did this in a similar way. I ran a tube from the drain hole to a measured quantity of oil and using my brake bleed tool connected to a bung in the top of the fork, sucked the oil through. Worked great.
Cool idea. Thanks
I bought a book about 20 years ago on maintenance tricks for Harleys that were used by techs and one is fork oil if you have an air suspension drain the forks remove the Schrader valve from the stem take a screw the same size as your drain screw and drill a hole in the center put piece of tubing over it and screw it into one fork leg and put the drain screw back in the other leg now with a brake type vacuum pump pull a vacuum where you took the Schrader valve out and use the drain screw with the tube on it to suck up the fork oil
cool
For the novice/ put some blanket around tank area just in case you slip with a spanner and likewise when filling up with oil some can be detrimental to the paintwork particularly otherwise good tips in this video cheers from Australia
Great tip!
Nice and helpful tutorial..of course, I'm sure Scott wouldn't let me try this lolol...nice seeing you my friend...have a nice evening..stay safe
outdoor adventures and traveling thank you just seen your video and that pic of Scott (I think) was hilarious 😂
@@TechnMoto thanks lolol...we aren't right sometimes 🤪🤪
Great video. Thanks. There's some ingenuity here. Question: on the left fork, would it be easier to screw the drain screw back in if you replaced the cap after filling it from below, but before removing the hose adapter? Thinking with less air coming in from the top it would be less likely to drain below....
hmm, not sure, give a try and let us know how it worked out.
I would have loved to have purchased that Harley!
That motorcycle sold quickly.
Have I ever told you I love the intros on your videos... very cool! I’ll prob never change out any oil like you show but it’s neat to watch you do it! :) happy Thursday! ~ Kim
Kimberly Creates gee thanks so much
thank you for the clean language and good information !from
? Okay
Very helpful tutorial of the oil change. Good stuff.
why thank you very much, and for the support too
Mark the bolt to the frame to return to spec tightness or close to it? No bleeding of air involved?
👌
Another great upload, step by step DYI video!
Thanks brother. I appreciate the support very much
Thanks for the video! Excellent
Hope it helps
Definitely..have used your videos alot to work on my 06 streetglide..thanks for the videos!
cool
love the vids.. where is the vid for making the filler tube?
That’s all I have.
The fastest distance between two points is simplicity. Brother, this is great f-----g stuff. You have just saved me a diaper load of time and expletive's, thank you for your time and effort. Can you tell me where bought the screw in adaptor?
check out the links in the description area right underneath the description. Glad to be of help.
@@TechnMoto Thanks, I look forward to more edu, take care...
I was wondering if I could just put the drain plugs back in and add the fork oil through the top where you removed the caps? Thanks.
you could but on the left one it will take a long time unlike the right fork
Awesome video 👍
thanks
Does the adapter you list in the description standard for all HD's /yrs?
Not sure. Just something I used that worked
Nice man. Lyked .
pAppA 009 [ Edit for your Pleasure ] thanks
thank you
Np 👍
hi.great video. I have an old yamaha xs 400.each fork has a drain screw .would your method work with it ?thanks
Should. Try filling in from the top first.
@TechnMoto ok thanks 👍
np
Nice job
Thanks 🙏
Do you have to realign the ignition tumblers after moving the front end with no ignition knob in?
As far as I know moving the front end does not affect the ignition switch. At least it hasn’t on the bikes I have worked on so far.
Good job brother 💯✌️😎
OZARKS H-D RIDER'S thanks for the support and commenting 😄
@@TechnMoto you got it brother 💯
Good video! Where did you get the syringe and tip? I don't want to get one that does not fit and oil get everywhere.
In the description should be links if I remember correctly
Wow awesome bike wish I still had mine unfortunately lost my licence due to ill health dam it
Sorry to hear that my friend, I;m sure the day will come for me too- not looking forward to that
How come you didn’t plug the drain plug back up and fill from up top? does that only work with your model Harley?
one can be filled from the top and one cannot. I touched up on that in the video? I did not get technical with the explanation. Take care and thanks for commenting
A little late to his video, but that is pretty slick thinking.
Thanks
I never seen one i could not fill from the top ....if you take the cap off for air why would you not just it from the top ?
You kidding.
Is the bottom fill on every Harley model? I have an 01 Electra glide
I believe it is, not sure though. Look it up or if the fluid does not go in from the top then you'll know it is.
I rebuild the seals on my 2000 Road King and filled from the top . The manual list two was , one from the top and one pumping from the bottom .
Remove the large 1 3/8 bolt and fill there . Road King takes 9.7 oz.
cool
How much oil do I use for my Kawasaki Vulcan en500
No idea. I would suggest you buy a service manual or ask on a specific forum for your bike. Good luck.
Can you please provide the exact specifications for your home made liquid tool?
60 ml syringe, vinyl tubing from home depot plastic air adapter. I have links in the description area. You could use a larger syringe if you wanted to make it easier. They have 150ml syringes which is approximately 5oz. Hope this helps.
Love your videos… what kind of jack is that. I’m thinking about getting one. Keep videos coming
Thanks Jason for the comment. That’s the harbor freight motorcycle jack. ua-cam.com/video/PnSH4JI_6R8/v-deo.html
Its great from me 👍🥰
Thanks
Hello,will this procedure work on a 1996 flht? Thanks
if the forks are the same and I think they are it should. should work on any fork if you can't fill it from the top.
@@TechnMoto Thanks,i just dont want to mess with the fairing.I do have drain screws on the bottom of the shocks. I will try your method. Thanks again.
@@DP-oi2cu normally I do open the caps on the top of the forks, never tried it without removing those. Hey give a shot and let me know if it worked for ya. Just make sure to measure what you get out of the fork and put in the same amount. good luck
I will remove the console , so that it will drain better. Thanks i will let you know how it goes. will keep track of amount of oil draining out from each side .
@@DP-oi2cu try it first without messing with the console and caps. If it doesn't work then you will have to remove the caps. next time I do mine I will try it without removing the caps to see if it is doable. thanks for the idea
how do you tell the difference from a cartridge fork to a reg fork ?
should be listed in your service manual. If you fill it from the top and oil goes in easily or not then you know, lol
I have a 2004 ultra classic
Cool 😎
thanks mijn nieuw friend🌷
Thank you friend
Never use an ajustible spanner when you can use the correct tool.
Okay
momma agrees, you don't wanna ruin da nuts! ....53 sec mark
😂
Always handle the nuts with care.... Check
lol, thake care

DC STUDIO thanks for coming by

thanks
This doesn’t apply to all bikes. Be more specific in your titles. Otherwise nothing but click bait.
maybe if you read the description you would know. click bait lol really? nothing ever applies to all bikes. incase you don't know every motorcycle has it's own procedures. oh and by the way when you pay my bills I'll do as you say till then no one is asking you to watch my shit.
Whaddya' expect from somebody who rides a Vstar!?... 😂
