Thanks for welcoming me to the forum.I grew up in Italy on GUZZIS and I just came into my first shovelhead i love it its an 80 CI and i have a question. NONE of the manuals I have clymer etc show just WHERE to check and top off the TRANNY FLUIDS ??
Its amazing I have looked everywhere and the internet has basically become just a place to sell things and is lacking in information thanks god for sites like this
ANY help is appreciated thanks very much

welcome!
the transmission fill hole is a good way to check the fluid, stand the bike upright and level and see that fluid is up 1/2 way or so covering the throw out bearing.
On some end covers {kicker cover} there is a small plug that can be remove, with the bike up right fluid should be to the bottom of the hole.
