I'm not a veteran Harley owner but this bike (M8 motor) doesn't have an oil tank so how is it a dry sump motor? Not to disagree with you but the oil goes into a pan not a tank. Anyway, I followed the owner's manual and input here on correct oil levels and adjustments and after a 200-mile ride was down on levels significantly, plus smelling oil burning from the exhaust. Anyway, I have an extended warranty and just going to ride it till she quits, too old now to stress about it.
btw, your M8 engine is a dry sump, and it does have an oil tank. If you are pulling the drain plug on the bottom of the engine pan, you should not be getting more than 8 oz out of there.
