harley supercharger maintanence questions

Does anyone know what upkeep has to be done to this supercharger its 2 years old.
How often do you have to change the oil and what has to be done with the intercooler?

I would consider changing the oil and cleaning the intercooler, however both depend on mileage, not age.
The intercoolers have a tendency to oil up and can become less effective from doing so.
If you do a search you will find many articles that cover this topic, including several that have attached pics. Most use brake cleaner to achieve the cleanliness they desire. My 01 Lightning was severely oiled and needed a good cleaning at 9,000 miles.
