Critter,
I put the Mobil 1 V-Twin in the primary also. Helps alot over regular primary fluid. I think RedLine is going in on the next round of changes.

I use Mobil1, and it is pretty good. I want to try RedLine or AmsOil the next round. Mobil1 is just easier to get your hands on. Our AmsOil rep comes to bike night at Hooter's every Wednesday, so I may hit him up next time.

Just put Mobil 1 Vtwin in the engine, Mobil 1 75-90 in the trans and Redline MTL in the primary. Pretty smooth, quiet and cooler than the stock stuff...
