Just curious as to what engine oil everyone uses! I just changed mine and run the screaming eagle synthetic, but Harley sure Is proud of it ($$$) .....anyone run anything not from Harley? ..cause we all know they don't make their own oil...they buy It and pay someone to put it in a Harley container just so they can make a buck!

Engine, AGIP 10W60 full synthetic PAO base.
Primary AGIP 5W40 full synthetic PAO base.
Trans AGIP 80W90 gear oil, mineral base.
Imported from Italy, where "synthetic" still has to be synthetic.
Amsoil, don't like the advertising, marketing and comparing other brands to their own, which always rates the best.
Avoid Mobil, as they won't tell me what they use for a base.
Avoid Castrol, as they started the cheating.
Avoid Shell, as they marketed a new oil and all that changed was the label.
