I get mine (Amsoil)from a local bike shop, really an accessories store for Harleys. Heck I even buy my genuine HD parts there, it just takes 24 hours to get the parts;he gives me 10% off of everthing, and gave me 15% off my chrome engine kit. If you want I'll give you their number, I'm sure he'd be happy to zip some to you!

last time i check my manual for my deluxe which is a twin cam 88 it stated 26 or 28 ounces i am sure it was not 32. I am not sure what motor you have in the train but if you have a twin cam 88 I would not be putting in 32 ounces

Twin cam takes 26 oz. 96 takes 32. I ahve heard a lot of people saythat they jsut dump a quart in twinkie's as well. Is there any down side to this? I always try to get 26 oz's spot on.
