My current ride “Seabiscuit’ came from the garage of a millionaire, talk about culture shock to the poor thing. But he is in addition to being multi business owner, works as an Oil Research and Development Specialist. And when I flew to Fla to pick up the bike he picked me up at the airport in Naples and talked techno stuff I have no idea what spewed out of him for an hour ride about oil,, quantum this, elasticity of molecular that,, but bottom line is he used Amsoil, I figure, ok. One interesting thing I did not know was oil can be too slick for a Harley. It has to have some fancy “tach” quality or the bearing race can spin around the shaft, and the actual bearings not be working and you can clearly see the problem there. He said HD oil was the worst in all his findings, in every category of every test,, but that is the oil I’ve always used since 1973, with no oil related issues. But I now use Amsoil since that’s all that’s ever been in Seabiscuit, so far so good.:bigsmiley28:
