When I started riding in the seventies, we used the terms "soft tail" and "hard tail" because they were easier to say than "swingarm suspension" and "rigid frame", particularly when drunk.

You guys know this; quit coming the raw prawn.

Rip1, I wasn`t ridiculing you, when I saw a post that said a `72 and a `75 Softail, the first thing I suspected was that someone was doing a drive by and yanking our chains....It happens a lot.

Use whatever oil you like, Dino or Syn, without any worries about mixing etc.

I bet nobody can find a post on any forum about an engine that has worn out prematurely or failed due to oil, as long as the correct grade was used.

Any brand 20w50 will give the engine all the protection it needs.
