Default Trans oil change

Changed trans oil to Red Line V-Twin w/Shockproof today. Hope it gets rid of the 'clunk' like it claims it will. The Spectro I dumped was a nice clear Red color. The Red Line looks like Pepto Bismol

Default Gear OIl

I just changed the trans oil and put the same thing back in that I had before...Spectro synthetic 75W140. Also adjusted the clutch. When everything is adjusted right, all I get is a click when I change gears except from neutral to 1st. That is just a little more than a click but not a clunk. The Spectro I use looks just like oil...

Which one? Heavy, light, or superlight?

Oops, sorry, I see "V-Twin" is the Heavy version.
