Looking for what the majority of you use. Do you use same oil in all 3 places
Want to start doing my own.
Thanks
Randy

I use Lucas straight 50 full syn in the crankcase and Lucas primary oil in the primary and Belray 85/140 in the gearbox. There are many good oils out there,the biggest reason I use Belray in the gear box is # 1 it works and #2 is being red its easy to spot a transmission leak.
I just put Redline in mine at the 30k service on Saturday. I can say the transmission is quieter with the Shockproof and my MT reverse seems to go in gear better as well. I'll run it until I need all 3 holes done and, if I like it, I'll continue running it, if not, I'll probably go to Mobil 1.
2016 Tri Glide, More DK than HD. Just shut up and ride.
Have been running regular 20x50 harley oil in crankcase and forumula in trannie and primary since 1997 on all of my bikes. Now I did run belray in trannie in my 2016 trike but I really didn't see much difference from the forumula one, but I sold it anyway.
All for now Trampas
