Default Redline tranny 80W

Can you let me know if the Redline 80W Motorcycle Gear Oil with ShockProof is the stuff I need for a 07 Street Glide. I have read a lot of post and am not sure if this is the correct weight for my bike.

Just looked at the bottle I have and it doesn't really have a rating on it. The stuff is called "Redline Heavy Shockproof Gear Oil"

The back of the label tells that it can be rated as 75w250 for temperature and 75W90 for friction... whatever that means. I don't see anywhere that tells you its 80W.

There is a difference between redline shockproof and redline V twin with shockproof. My understanding is redline developed the V twin with shock to provide a thinner consistency for the 6 speed while still providing some of the shockproof.
