Might have to hold some cheese cloth behind the pipes next time I have it warmed up after a ride.

Easy to get Formula plus. … On my 07 flhtc I have a Barnett at the time they said Redline was the best so that is what I’ve used. 10000 miles is what I try to get bet if not then once a year.

2021 Tri Glide Ultra Vivid Black with some Farkles.
Re-looked at exhaust pipe, and there is oil residue. Oil is getting through the pistons. Where it sat so long, would Luca's oil help any?
Thank you rhino 2.

Whatever primary juice you decide to use make sure you change it every oil change every time. Heres why- see that silvery fine particle sludge ( not chunks or slivers!)on the magnetic drain plug? Guess where else there are magnets? On the rotor. Those fine particles will attach themselves and over time will lead to your alternator shorting/ burning out.Its a fresh quart of oil now or a new alternator later. Might as well throw a new regulator/rectifer and battery onto the final bill- bad news comes in 3's. CHANGE THAT PRIMARY OIL!

To both rhino2 and Jack Klarich, thank you. Due to finances, I might try the oil additive first. If that doesn't work I might try and find you Jack. It looks like you're in Jax, Fl and I'm about 60 miles in Glen St Mary....lol
Thank you Jack. Your number is written down. By any chance are you doing the Boots on the Ground run on May 7th?
Rhino 2 is right. It's a huge poker run, at least 600 bikes that run 13 different routes through Jax. It's to build money for vets, first responders and so much more.
With the redesigned compensator I don't use ATF anymore.
These compensators need a high quality oil because of the slide ramps and flat roller bearing.
I've actually been adding a small amount of ZDDP additive to my primary oil because of the slide ramps. They work just like a flat tappet cam in older car engines. Hasn't effected the clutch function (no slipping) for the last 2 years and my primary is still clunk free.
