0-1 k HD
1-5 k Amsoil in all three holes
10k Amsoil Primary and crankcase. Redline in transmission.

My Verdict: Redline in transmission REALLY quieted the gears down and stopped the 1st gear clunk cold. Now when riding, I hear the exhaust, and not the whine of the gearbox. Redline Vtwin transmission fluid is clearly a superior product in terms of noise reduction.

Im breaking in my 1250 big bore kit I put on my 883 and at the 500 miles im putting in Red Line 20/50 Synthetic for the engine & Red Line primary oil in the primary. Ive heard good things about both. All I know for sure is that I don't like HD Syn3. Its to noisey at least it is on my Sportster.

Don't run shock proof in the primary it can destroy the clutch's.

Heavy duty Shock Proof..

Put Redline V-Twin Primary in for the first time last night. We'll see how well it works.

FYI- Screaming Eagle SYN oils are made by Mobil One. NO difference what-so-ever.
I am not doubting your post but most racers use the product that sponsor them. Free oil to put our sticker on your car, bike or boat
