I use Redline for my primary, tranny, and motor oil. Haven't noticed a difference from HD fluids.

Any thing from pipes to tuners to light bulbs are now poo according every Dealer I happen to be in. I have had 8 Harleys over my many years of riding, and for many years of Harley, if it wasn't for aftermarket parts the damn things would have blown up faster than Harley options. I have no issue with most of the Harley parts....but let's be honest, there's a ton of parts as good and some much better. Just my opinion

Believe me, I don't drink the motor co Kool-Aid, I'm more of a FTF guy. For example S&S crank & Andrews gear drive cams in my bike. I was just reporting what I have seen.
