Well, Harleys actually hold around 3/4 of a gallon, not 3/4 of a quart, but you're right on point. You can't really compare a big rig oil environment (even if we're talking turbocharging), and an oil capacity of several gallons, with the punishment an air cooled TC96 puts an oil through.
I should have said...3 to 4 quarts. depending on the model. I assumed that 3/4 qt meant the same thing. Sorry....
