Okay Tony, I am now in a really shitty mood but I will give you a serious answer. Personally I like Amsoil. If you go to their web site you can get a 6 month membership for $10.00, then get a 25% discount. First time I did it I ordered 2 cases and a short while ago ordered 4 gallon jugs. I see gas prices are going up which means oil prices and anything related. With a membership you can use it at an authorized dealer locally if you have one ans save on S&H. Now my good deeds are done for today.....

As long as it is the correct weight and to comply with your manual you can use deseil or motorcyle oil. both have higher levels of zinc and other metals that rpotect your engine. so any brand is fine...as long as it is motorcycle or desiel oil.

Tony, go into the FORUM option above and down drop to the HD tech forum. On the fifth topic you will see the Oil and Oil related topics. Make yourself comfortable and read all about oils. After your thru you should have a pretty good idea of which type of oil you want. Welcome to the forum.

I was told the wheels on mine would turn backwards, but I took the chance they were just joshing and went with Amsoil 20w-50. Lo and behold, the world still turns like it
's in greased grooves.
