Went to check the transmission oils in my 2014 Limited with Bel-ray oil that is blue in color, and my 2007 RK Custom with unknown oil with a clear color. Yep, it was a lot easier seeing where the blue Bel-ray was on the dipstick than the clear whatever.

Going to change the Custom oil to Bel-ray.

add a UV dye and use a blacklight- great party trick

Red Line transmission oil. it's pink!

 

Bel ray FTW....

 

Gearist!

 

I have Bel ray in the limited, I will use that so as to not add another 1/2 empty bottle to my oil collection.

Jaime at Fuel Moto recommends the Bel-Ray Primary oil in his builds and Red Line which is red/pink in the tranny.

 

Redline works for me.

 

Another benefit is if you have a leak, at least you can tell whether it's engine, trans, or primary.

 

That chrome dipstick is a pita. For the same reason I switched to redline.
