Every 10,000 miles (16,000 km) or 24 months, whichever comes first. Use Formula+ or equivalent SAE 50.

Primary Chain Case Oil Change:

Every 5,000 miles (8,000 km) or 12 months, whichever comes first. Use Formula+ or equivalent SAE 50.

Spark Plugs:

Inspect every 10,000 miles (16,000 km), replace as needed. Recommended: Harley-Davidson Screamin' Eagle performance spark plugs or equivalent (e.g., NGK).

Air Filter:

Inspect every 5,000 miles (8,000 km), clean or replace as needed.
