My vote goes to Spectro 6 speed Platinum. Trans is much quiter than with the Harley juice. I get the Spectro from Bob's Cycle World. Kind of spendy, but only takes one quart every 10-20,000 miles so no biggie... Redline Shock Proof seems popular here. Can't speak to that as I never tried it...but I know it is red in color, so that is a plus for finding leaks...
