Default oil overflow 2004 FXD

I changed the oil in all 3 holes the other day, same oil in all. Now I have oil coming out of the tube on the top of the trany above the primary. Makes sense that this is from the trany but I wanted to be sure before I sucked oil back out. Is it the trany or crank that's causing it? I haven't ridden it long enough to get hot yet so both are reading a bit overfilled. Thanks.

Sounds like you overfillled the tranny.Did you check it with the bike level?

Yes, I am checking with it level but not hot since I haven't ridden it yet. Thanks, I will remove some from the trany.
