Default Transmission fluids
I read lots of posts from touring to sportsters on the kind of transmission oil used. I have been running Red Line in my 2010 FXDC and it's ok. Shifts smooth but clunks like most. I'm looking at Ansoil 75w90 severe duty. Wondering what you are using and why. Thanks.

Redline shockproof for my bike. Belray gear oil is also good stuff. I gave a buddy an extra bottle of shockproof I had. He said he was having trouble finding neutral but not anymore.

You can get that oil almost anywhere and it shifts nice and smooth.

I use this stuff too. I have also used the Bel-Ray oil and it is good but not near as good as the Spectro.
