Honestly I'm sorry about your situation.Harley used DOT 5 from 72 up to very recently depending on the model.The switch to DOT 4 is for the ABS bikes and was across the model line for consistency.DOT 5 doesn't work well with ABS as it aerates too easily when pumped that fast.Just ask anyone who's ridden an Nissin ABS equipped police bike.
However if you're going to perform work on the bike you must know what you're doing.I'm sorry if you find this offensive but it may have cost you dearly.Had the dealer done this I'm sure lawyers would be involved.Buy a service manual and read it before touching a tool.
