Not according to their website. I got the V Twin with Shockproof that I will be putting in on the next change. Nice bike you got there!

I put the V-Twin with Shockproof in my 2005 FLHTPI and it sounds like it have quieted the trans down a bit.

That's the one I bought after the Cycle Gear dealer I bought it from called Redline's Tech Support when I was in the store. That's what they recommended and it's the same price as the other. $12.95 for a quart/32oz.

I have run both in my trans and I don't know why but the Heavy Shock Proof seems to work a little better at keeping things quiet.

V-twin is heavier weight and the one to use.

I don't think that is true, V-TWIN says similar to Heavy Shock Proof. Having run both I can only say the Heavy Shock proof seems to quiet fifth a little more.

Shockproof is heavier. I've been running V twin here in Pa. Occassionally cool here and don't want the extra drag. It has been in the 80's and 90's and clear, had to add that. Regular shock would probably run fine.
