Has anyone heard of or used this oil in their Harley ? They make a 20w-50 full synthetic. Any experience with it ? Thanks.

Is there sposed to be a link or a name somewhere in the message, that can be responded too?

 

Ive used Mobil One in mine. Never heard of the no name brand your asking about, lol

 

Thanks Frigerayorman

 

I just switched from HD 60w to Shaeffers 20-50w yesterday and measured my head / cyl temps ( hottest area is exhaust side where heads and cylinders meet. This is before and after the oil change.

Before: 90 deg and bike good and hot, riding solo. Up to operating temp I measured once engine is turned off (within 60 sec.)- 355 rear / 335 front.

Changed oil, had 2,200 miles on it.

After: 90 deg and bike good and hot, riding two up this time. I measured once engine is turned off (within 60 sec.) - 300 rear / 285 front. Wife says bike sounds quieter

BTW Jason's Fans not on at all during this test.
That's all ...... Let the games begin ��

 

Does this oil have the additives that help the life of the air-cooled v-twin engine?

 

Their v twinsemsynthetic looks like it will work fine. I use Brad-Penn hi perf semi syn,probably very similar,but less $$.

 

Back side with more info:

 

how much a quart

 

$12.95, I was at the dealer. The Shaeffers rep was there and told me where to buy it cheaper so I will check the real price next week. The cooling results are worth the extra $ if you ask me.

Edit: Amazon has the 5 gal bucket for $147.49 (7.37 qt). Rep said it can be labeled racing oil as well. Same batch from Shaeffers.
