Question Oil

What weight of motor oil should I put in my 01 Road King. It has about 15,000 miles. And I have an oil cooler on the bike. I live in Texas so it is HOT in the summer. 10W40 or 10W50?

Not anymore, didn't you hear the news? They've finally stopped the leak. They capped it with a wedding ring and it stopped putting out!
