I Can Find Neutral!!
I just retrieved my Road King from 1K service at the dealer. \\; I had them put Harley Syn 3 oil in al three holes. \\; I read the threads about the different oils, and I know Syn 3 is not real popular, but I wanted to start off good with the service department, so I let them sell it to me. \\; Anyhow, I put on about 175 miles today, and the one thing I noticed is how much eaiser it shifts now. \\; Even after a long ride, finding neutral is no longer a challenge. \\; Just thought I would pass it along, for whatever it is worth.

I am using Syn3 and have no complaints in spite of all the negative comments on here about it coming from Citgo and Venezuela. I have spent more time in Venezuela than I have in the Mideast and I like Venezuelan women and their oil.

If the dealer adjusted the primary chain, that could be more responsible for finding neutral than the oil change.

since he just did the 1k, i would assume that he has either an 08 or an 07 (since not specified), there is no primary chain adjustment.

RE: I Can Find Neutral!!
The dealer didn't **** me off with the 1 K service, so I figure I will stick with him and his products at least until the warranty runs out. \\; I don't want to argue with anyone about when service was done or who did it. \\; After that I may check out some other products. \\; Meantime, the Syn 3 will get changed often enough that it should do the job well enough.
