Heritage Classic Softail.I have 20/50 HD oil (2000 miles) in crank and HD formula + in tranny and primary. December is approaching and I live in Michigan. I plan to ride thru winter as long as it 30 or above. My Questions
1. Must I change oil to 10/40? or is it ok to keep riding with what I have
2. Changing engine oil, no big deal, just go for a ride and drain etc. however changing primary and tranny just a little more. Some of you will say, yes use lighter oil for engine, should I change tranny and primary too.
3. Any other tips
