I have found a replacement engine oil for me.... SHOCKING as I changed
FROM 20/50.....20/60 Redline to 10W60 Liquimoly oil....
A German oil from Amazon @ 40$ and free shipping for a Jug of 5 liters = a little over 5 US quarts...
I buy two at a time (10+ quarts) and at my door in Two days...

I did extensive Trial on that oil and took me over 11,000 miles to get all conditions as: COLD... Warm... HOT... VERY Hot....
Man, it was Tough doing all that riding... SMILE lol (Big SMILE)

Two Good BLACKSTONE oil reports, one at 4400 miles and another change oil n filter then 6,111 miles...
BLACKSTONE saying: very little wear n suggested going to 8,000 miles... Saying: YOU found a Good oil for your 09 103" motor that IT liked and did VERY WELL With...

I still use ONLY Redline MTL for the primary and Redline SHOCKPROOF Heavy GEAR OIL for the Tranny...

Castrol GTX 20W/50 in the 96 evo engine and formula plus in the trans and primary. Will change trans to something else next service.
Syn 3 until the next oil change in the 2014 sportster motor (and every where else). Change that to Mobil 1 at next service, and formula plus for the trans/primary
 
I am going to try Quicksilver 20-50 @ 500 miles with a HD filter

$24.97 a gallon, compared to Syn 3 @ $48.95 , Mobil1 @ $32.00 on sale, or HD 360 Dino @ $29.95 I will use Formula plus in the primary and Redline in the tranny

Jack,

Who makes that stuff?

Cheers,

TQ
 
If I remember correctly Mobil 1 Twin V 20/50 was the most used in the poll.
Oils have been debated here and the finale conclusion is, it's your ride you decide.

Having said that and on a personal note I use
1. Mobil 1 Twin V 20/50 in the engine.
2. Red Line shockproof in the transmission.
3. Formula + in the primary.
