Amount of new fluid for dry front fork tubes on a 1999 Harley FLSTF
SOURCE: replace harley fork lock
I would check with your local dealer to see if your lock is covered under the recall. Look to see if your lock has white on it. If it does then there's a good chance you can get it replaced for free. Other than that you need specialty tools to re align the internals of the lock to remove the top section. But to remove the top lock section you turn the lock all the way to the right. Push the pin ( under the top section ) in with a little flat head screwdriver, the while holding it in turn the ignition all the way to the left. It will pop up due to spring pressure.You can use a medium flathead screwdriver to turn the ignition off at that time

Not very common, but I don't see how the seal could scratch the tube. There are a few millimeters of clearance between the tube and metal part of the seal. The rubber seal rubs the tube and is bonded to the metal ring. Either the tube was scratched during assembly or the seal was BADLY dented somehow. Further, the tube is hard chromed and the seal metal is soft steel. Go figure!

The fork oil is a very specific job needing a manual and a special tool, I don't want to insult anyones mechanical knowledge but if you have never done it before, best to take somewhere else. Engine oil on the other hand is easy, the drain tube to any softail is on the right side by where the frame meets the swing arm, has somekind of plug in it. Start and run bike for a little while, long enough to get it warm but not hot. Remove fill plug and then remove plug in drain line. Using a peice of cardboard or something put in between filter and frame , directing the oil to your drain pan instead of where ever it goes. Put 1 qt oil back in (after everything is reinstalled) start the bike and make sure the oil light goes out, when it does shut bike off and fill to the point that when it is standing upright you get a little oil on the tip of your finger, over filling may result in loss of oil cap from pressure (been there)
