Raise and support vehicle with area at and behind the pan unobstructed, drain transmission and engine oils, remove pan bolts (may need a long ball Allen) and pull pan out to the rear. Should be able to do this without swing arm removal but may have to remove rear tire if there is not enough clearance with it in place.

the oil tank is on the bottom of the transmission in your RK. There are two drain plugs. The plug towards the front left of the pan is the oil drain plug. The other one is for the transmission.
Drain the oil, replace the filter, refill with three quarts of oil and you're ready to go. The dipstick has two marks on it. The upper mark is "FULL HOT", and the lower mark is "FULL COLD". Do not overfill.
Don't forget to service the transmission and the primary at their recommended intervals.
Good Luck

Why? What are you doing? The Road King doesn't have an "oil pan", the lube system on the King is a pressurized dry sump.
