Just bought an 01 Road King Classic that has 84000 km on it,noticed the po had been using Mobil1 synthetic,,should I stay with synthetic or is it ok to use regular oil? Whats ur opinions?

 

There is a simple explanation here on page 2:

I'd stay with what it's had all it's life, Mobil 1 is a good oil.

 

Use whatever you like. Bike cannot tell what you used. Mobil 1 made my bike sound like a can of marbles bouncing around however I doubt it increased wear much.

 

I wouldn't be worried about changing from overpriced Mobil 1 to dyno oil. I run a Diesel specification CH or CI-4 or CI-4(+) 15W-50.
Have run it in 2 EVO's and a twin cam for years with no problems.

HD says to use a diesel spec oil "when HD oil is not available" which tells me their spec is diesel based. Works for me.

 

My 2000 Road Glide runs Mobil 1 and doesn't lose a drop between 5,000 mile changes. And it turned 119,000 on the clock last week.

 

I use olive oil. First cold press.

 

You should change over to EXTRA VIRGIN Olive Oil it restores your motor back to the first time.
