Default Redline heavy gear oil.

I just changed my trans fluid and put in the redline heavy gear oil in the trans as per paeple in the forum. It sure looks alot heavier in viscosity than the oil that was in there. Anyone have any comments or problems with this oil in the trans? It was too late to take it for a spin, I see tomorrow.

I haven't had any problems with it. Been running it for a couple of months now.

RedLine Shockproof is absolutely the best, imho - you'll love the way your tranny will shift - let us know. I've been using it since new (16 on the bike now) - ATF in the primary.

Ditto. I really like Redline in the trans. did quiet the trans in my 07 UC and both my WG and UCshift much better.

on Redlines web-site they recomend the Light-shockproof for HDs, it is the equivelent to 70-140.

After I switched 300 miles ago, I cant here a sound out of my gear-box.

Good stuff!

Been running Redline Shockproof Heavy for about 5K Miles on my 06 SG. Much Quiter, Crisper and less
Clunk factor. Freind running it in his 07 SG with even more noticable advantage with the New Tranny.
