Whale oil or Baby oil but they keep shutting down all the baby presses around here so it's pretty pricey.

After your 1000 mile service, you're probably going to want to go to Synthetic...Supposed to run cooler, and last longer before the viscosity starts to break down. If you're a religious oil changer, some just stay with HD's Dyno...

Okay evert, just stop and think for a minute. You now own the most expensive model motorcycle from the most expensive manufacturer. You're gonna NEED to buy the most expensive oil to properly take care of this baby. So make sure that if you decide to use olive oil...it's gotta be extra virgin!
