    Thanks for the photos. The Mobil 1 would be convenient because I can run it in everything on the bike. Might have to try to pick some up locally. Need to get both of the bikes serviced this weekend because I head for South Dakota the following weekend.

    Oh, and I'm going with the Mobil 1 because I can buy it at Walmart, use it in the engine, transmission, and the primary, and it has to be better than the Harley stuff.

    I like Red Line, but you probably wont find it anywhere locally. And its not exactly cheap.

    All of the oils you mentioned are good options. 20w50 full synthetic is preferred, we use the Drag Specialties or Twin Power brands here at the shop, but it's really hard to buy bad oil these days. As a rule, Harleys don't place much sheer stress on the oil, since they run at relatively low rpm and don't share engine oil with the transmission like most imports do, but being air cooled they do place a somewhat higher level of thermal stress on the oil.

    Another vote for the synthetic t6 from rotella, I run in it the pissed off car and bike.
    You sir, are a specialist in the art of discovering a welcoming outcome of a particular situation....not a mechanic.

    I'd run Royal Purpal in everything I own if I could afford it. I watched some show on how it was made. They take samples straight from the trailer and test it before they accept it. If it fails their standards, they tell the driver to take it elsewhere. Pretty neat show.
