Yeah, I would search it out, tons of opinions here. There are fans and opponents of all the oils, so I'll tell you up front, you will have to make your own decision, there is no concensus.

Your original question, yes, I run Amsoil in all three, 20W50 in the crankcase and primary, 75W90 in the trans.

Is it the best out there, hell, I don't know, but I believe it to be in the top five with Mobil-1, Redline, etc.

I have used it for the last couple of years. It really cools the bike down. 20w 50 in the engine and primary and the 90w severe oil in the tranny.

I don't see anything wrong with you asking the question again. If folks don't like it they should just ignore the post. I don't understand why perople feel they have to make those kind of comments.

Changed from Mobil 1 to Amsoil in crank. Both good but Amsoil a little cooler running.

You better re-think this thread. The new HD Community Organizer does not approve of it. See the thread below. You may submit your Big-Oil related question to any number (1) of government approved and funded Q and A sites. ACORN is approved to answer these type of questions now.
