Use whatever 20w-50 you want. You don't need that overpriced v-twin stuff either. Any auto 20w-50 will work just fine.

OK, buncha pansies ... if no one else is gonna do it...

well, sorry Tony you dam iggerant newbie, but you sholda been flamed til smoke leaked from your butt.

First, go peek at the Oil and Oil Related Topics.
Even simply looking at the titles of the topics would have answered your question. (hint - check out the #3 sticky!)

Second, try a Search and use oil as the search string. After that you can go to the Advance Search and tune needed.

you'll learn.

Sure you can.......if you want to VOID the warranty and risk "throwing a rod" or seizing the motor up or even just ruin the bearings. Go Ahead!! It's your bike.

TOTALLY KIDDING. I like Mobil 1 15W-50 and BelRay in the Tranny and Primary
