09 RK - Transmission Lubricant?
I am approaching the 1k service on my 09 RK. I plan synthetic for the engine but what should I use for the transmission? Choices are:
HD Transmission Lubricant
HD Synthetic engine oil
Mobil 1 Synthetic gear lubricant.
Bel-Rey Gear Saver
I suspect any of these would provide adequate lubrication protection for a duffer-driven HD in a moderate climate. The transmission shifts okay with the original factory fill, but I would like quieter gears.
What would you suggest??
Thanks, Eric

I went with the Mobile 1 synthetic 75-140 for my 09 tranny and it's great. I have 2500 miles on it since I put it in, the shifts are much smoother and quieter, plus my bike had a noticeable 5th gear whine and you can don;t even notice it now. When I got my bike dyno'd they ask me what type fluids I was running and when I told them they said I made a very good choice. I run the Mobile 1 V-twin 20-50 synthetic in the motor and primary.
