Default Service Mileage

Looking for a quick answer for the MOCO's mileage recommendtions on when to change transmission oil, primary oil and spark plugs. I am at work and a co-worker advised me he was taking his 09 Streetglide in for a 5,000 mile service ($300). He is concerned if if doesn't get the service if will affect his warranty (not). Dealer told him they change oil in all three holes, change sparks plugs etc...

I told him I thought service interval for transmission was 20,000, primary oil 10,000 and sparks plugs 10,000. I offered to do for a 12 pack of Corona.

Anyone have a service or owners manual handy at the moment?

Thanks

They change all the fluids at 5K HD has a 27 point check list they perform.

The spark plugs are changed at 10K

Here's what I do....wait a minute, the bell just went off. Gotta run over to the general chat section, someone just posted a question needing another document. I'll answer later.

Thanks for the prompt responses. Kudos to Dawg for the maintenance spreadsheet. My ill informed co-worker will have an extra $250 in his wallet and I'll have some cold beer in the fridge. A win-win situation for sure.

Thanks again.
