I use Redline also. They need more retail outlets. A lot of the guys in the south run 20w-60, especially in the summer.

I wondered the same thing about the kit, but I bought it anyways and will continue to do so for both my bike and the wife's. For what its worth, I run the 20w60 and it's great. Quiets down my '11 RKC 103 considerably.

If you buy the kit it will cost about $90 and it comes with 7Qts of oils a hat, funnel, injector cleaner and useless stickers.
Most of the Redline oils sell for atleast $14 a Qt. (14X7 = $98)
It seems like a good deal..

Combined, my Harley's have over 120,000 miles. This has worked pretty well. No engine or tranny problems at all.

Use the extra engine oil in your lawnmower.
