Harley Davidson Touring Air Shocks - Oil Change

- How to change the oil in your Harley Davidson Touring Air Shocks bought to you by Go Two Cycle. 360-393-3640 We show you how to drain and refill your Harley air shocks - if they leaked, are too soft, too firm or they are just tired and need a fluid change - so how you can refresh them in just a short period of time.
I want to take few seconds of my time to THANK YOU for this video. let me explain why? Maybe this comment will help others too. I decided to "improve" my 2015 Ultra limited with the "premium" street glide CVO rear shocks. In the process of removing my regular shocks one of them laid to its side and dripped quite a bit of oil. The CVO suspension turn out to be extremely harsh for me. I asked the dealer about how to fix the old shocks and off course they said they can't be serviced I needed new ones. So this video not only saved me money but allowed me to enjoy my bike again. THANK YOU
Many questions asked here that have not been given a response. If you’re going to take the time (Thank you!) to produce a video, please take just a bit more time to answer a few questions. Thanks again for the video.
Just did this yesterday and it worked like a charm. Love it when a plan comes together
Got 'er done tonight (actually early this morning - it's 2am) and the video helped me out. I went with Bel Ray 5wt. fork oil, and the old fluid was nasty on my '99 FLH. I already had the Mity Vac for brake bleeding jobs, so it was nice not having to buy another tool for a change.
Thanks. So many people make these videos with a shaky handheld cam and make them 40 mts long.
I'm looking to do my shocks. I'm wondering what your results were with the 5 weight? Did you leave it, or try something else? Were you happy with the 10 ounce quantity? Thanks for sharing! Your video is the only single one I could find to get a little insight into doing mine.
It was a good video I choose to go with 8 oz I think my mistake was I use 15 weight and without any air pressure in the shocks the rebound and compression is so hard on that now I know why it supposed to use 5 weight
This channel doesn't respond to anyone asking questions . I ask a question 8 months ago and I see others have ask also with no answer .
You should start getting thumbs down even though this is a helpful video , answering questions is very important.
So by changing out the oil fluid with fresh fluid what did this accomplish? My stock harley air shocks are horrible. Thanks in advance.
Hi
I need to know how to deassambly the air shocks. Will be nice to get provided :)
Thank you, thank you, thank you. So much better of a ride.
Please send instructions on how to do on bike without removal as mentioned. Also - (I don't see any replies) : what weight oil was used to refill, and what would be the 'heaviest' weight you could use ?
Is there a shock difference between a 2004 ultra classic and 2007 classic?
my shocks have noise and i think is like bloked .
maybe if i change the oil came back to live .
what w oil use ? here in uruguay have motul oil fork 10w 15w 20w 25 w .
thsnks
So how to change the oilseal if got leaked???
Why would i want to change shock oil?
I just want to know where you got that ratio glass cup, I need one in my life.
nice . doing it yourself once pays for the pump many times over.
You use the same method I used on my Kawasaki Voyager, I acquired these same shocks to improve my Sporters ride, Q: do you find 5W adequate or would you use the 7 or 10W oils? I expect to be riding solo mostly, 5W seems adequate but 7W may give me a better range.
Hi. how many milliliters do I need to fill on one Road King suspension? Is there anyone to tell me. Thanks.
did the 5 wait work for you
wow. wish I would have seen this video 3 years ago.
I use three Bar air volume (Two Up) is that ok and thank you for the video.Oh and the shocks have been in for six years without a service are they still ok while rideing they seem choppie??..Cheers anyway.
Correction to my comment. The oil was squirting out at the time when vacuum was applied with oil in the container and instead of getting air out of the shocker it pumped oil out of the mityvac..
Can you tell me how to drain the fluid out without taking them off of the motorcycle? Thanks!
After watching your video I bought mityvac. For the first shock everything worked fine but on the second oil started to squirt out from mityvac side through the black plastic and no matter what I did I could not feel up the shock with oil. If you know how to remedy this please let me know.
Can't you just remove that fitting on the shock.
Then pour the fluid straight in
Wow cool information thank you
Thank You for the great info! You are very much appreciated.
How much and what kind of oil can I put in each shock absorber?
10 oz. in each rear shock. Harley Davidson sells fork oil and you can get it in two weights, std. and heavy. This amounts to about 5 wt. and 10 wt. For even higher viscosity you can use ATF. But for the rear shocks that's probably going to reduce rebound to nil, so start out with 5 and see how you like it first.
If you have an older Harley, like my wife's 2001 Road King Police, the front forks also use air over oil, but with a drain in the bottom it's even easier to drain the oil and replace it. Simply let the pressure force the oil out, and use the mighty vac to pull a vacuum from the top to draw fresh oil from the drain in the bottom of the fork. I think there is a youtube video somewhere demonstrating this procedure. Good Luck.
How much oil should I pour into each shock absorber?
10 ounces
What parts were used. And which year Goldwing shocks are these similar to???
Also how about 10w/15w oil? Would it be bad for the seals?
Great video! What Mityvac kit model number are you using? Also, you stated you can perform this maintenance with the shocks on the bike. How would you drain the old oil with them still installed?
YES - be interested on how its done when they are still on bike also ...
I to copied that he said you can drain on the bike. I don't think you can unless you turn the bike upside down. Now wondering if you can use the same method to change fork oil, applying light air to draw out the old oil and mightyvac to draw in the new.
You don't turn the shock upside down, you let the pressure in the system push the fluid out. Pull the fill valve off the frame (one threaded nut) and disconnect the hose. reconnect the valve to the hose below the shock and pump it up to 40 PSI then disconnect the hose and let it drain into a container, below the shock.
R GH “Reconnect the valve to the hose below the shock.” Where’s the hose below the shock?
What kind of oil is it?
Olive oil.
can you tell me where i can buy the vacuumpump ?
auto parts store
I got one on ebay for about $25
The original oil is call "Gook".
