RE: For those who use Amsoil
I used to, but the 20/50 in the primary seems to thin out enough to leak. Switched to the HD Formula+ and leaks stopped immediately, w/o even changing the gasket.
 \\;
When I got my DD6 tranny, Baker recommmends RedLine SPH so that left me with AMSoil MCV in the crankcase.
 \\;
On my last oil change, I wanted to try a 20/60 \\;in the crankcase for the hot TX summer and AMSoil does not offer one, so I am trying RedLine V-Twin Syn 20/60.
 \\;
Opinions &\\; A-holes: \\; \\;Everyone's got'm... \\;Some stink, some don't.... [8D]

I use 20/50 Amsoil in my primary and never had an issue. If you have a leak, then you need to get it fixed. Should not be leaking no matter what you use. That is if you have a newer Harley. I hear the older ones leak no matter what.
