Is it the stock air filter or the screaming eagle? There is no getting around blowby. If you over fill your oil tank you will get oil in the filter. If the bike sits around for awhile and you don not run it you will get blow by. I would start by cleaning it out then go for a nice long ride and dont be afraid to open her up on a back road. Its just one of those things. I do find it more common in bikes that are not run on a daily basis though.I want to know if the air filter for a 2003 Harley Davidson 883 Hugger should have oil in it?
No, the air filter should be dry. For some reason your drawing too much crankcase gases or your engine is making too much from possible blow by. There could be a component in the crankcase venitlation system thats faulty or plugged.
No. Your air filter should be dry. Your machine is wretching oil ... could be rings, could be an overfilled oil bag, could be blocked crank breather tube, could be a lot of things. But it is not normal, no.
Get it seen to before your little problem becomes a big problem.
Did you top up oil tank? common when bike has been sitting for a while (week or two) (particularly HD) oil drains into crancase , tank is low so gets topped off. when engine starts oil in cases returns to tank and exits into air filter through breather/vent
