\\

====== 1986-1990 4-Speed Constant Mesh Wet Clutch Transmission w/Trapdoor======
  * The rear compartment of the left and right engine case halves form the transmission housing or case. An access cover, or trapdoor, is mounted on the left side of the case (inside) behind the primary cover. The main components of the transmission are mounted to this trapdoor to allow you to detach the one cover (together with all the transmission components) for easy removal and servicing without having to split the engine cases in half which otherwise would be a full engine re-build.

==== Primary / Transmission Oil Capacities ====

|The MoCo publishes for 1986-1990 ((1986-1990 HD Sportster FSM pg 2-1))|1.5 pints (24 oz), (710 ml)|
  * This quantity is for a dry application. When changing oil, use your own judgement not to overfill as you won't need a full 1.5 pints to re-fill the oil.



===== Transmission =====
  * Internal Gear Ratios are the number of clutch gear revolutions to drive the mainshaft sprocket one revolution.
  * Overall Gear Ratios are the number of engine revolutions to drive rear wheel one revolution.
