S.D.M.F. LMK what you think of the Amsoil compared to the Redline, I only run Amsoil but read good things about the Redline, almost gave it try this season.

Oh how the other half live!!
We here in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia are suffering high temperatures; High humidity and daily storms. I haven't had the bike (2010 Softail Standard) out for over two weeks because of the weather. Sad!
She's in the shed and wrapped up against dust and moisture waiting for better weather. Crazy ain't it!!

I thought these comparison videos were interesting. Granted
it is automotive oil, not the 'V-Twin' version.

Finally have the 14" apes and black lower forks on.
Much better than the stock!
Shout to forum member ​​​​​@2K10FBLO for the deal on the lowers, thanks again brother!

G'day M8. I'll be giving ti a go as well. Metropolitan Motorcycle Spares are an Amsoil stockist and sponsored my club's United Tourers party with prizes.
I also use a spoon full of Proma in the engine https://proma.global/products/mbl8-c...additive-250ml
Cheers

G'day Fellas.
Did 500 miles over the weekend. Down to the coast for my other club Shoalhaven Classic M/cycle Club meeting. Most bikes being over 30 years old and members a lot older. Overcast most of the way and drizzle the last 40 miles. Just got her home to the shed and the skies opened up with a good down-pore.
Cheers
