From the Redline site, it can be seen the Automotive and V-Twin 20-50 products are, understandably, quite similar but are not exactly the same.

"I'll pay the 3 bux"

 

Work's fine for me. I still use the old school straight weight Formula + gear oil in the transmission and primary. The Mobile V is needed in the combination gear/engine combination boxes on the large metric cruisers. If you want to keep the alarm level down when your friends drop over to knock down a few cold ones and change their oil, do what I do.

 

I've use M1 V-twin for a while. I just picked up a case of Castrol V-twin because it seemed to get decent enough reviews and was considerably cheaper than the M1.

 

Mobil1 15w/50 at Walmart in a 5 quart jug for about $24.00.

Been usin' it fer years...

 

Thanks for all the inflo. Walmart here, has it for $35 for 4 qts.

 

I been thinking about doing that. I use the 15-50 in my john deere 318 Onan engine. Considering the cost of v twin and AmsOil I've strongly considered putting the 15-50 in my dyna.

 

Seeing this thread reminds me to get some oil at W-M.

 

Bullshit!

 

I use it in my 2011 Electra Glide I got 4qts. at Meijer's for my next oil change $9.59 a qt.(Mobil 1 V-Twin)

 

don't drink it and you'll be ok.
