On a 2007 CVO Road King (110) based on advise from forum (thank you) had my local shop swap out the tran and primary oil to red line - shock proof.  Wow.  I can not tell you how well and smooth the bike shifts and performs.   Next oil change Im going Red Line for the engine as well.   Needless to say, wanted to comment its worth it in these engines.

Amazing that a particular oil brand can make this much difference isn't it ?
Don't wait too long to do the engine oil ---- it is a major improvement !!

At what mileage do you change the primary and gearbox? I have been using Amsoil. But tough to get with no local dealers; have to mail order. Thinking about switching to Redline as it is available locally.

I do the engine oil, primary and spark plugs every 5000 miles and the gear box and air cleaner every 10000.

Will my HD dealer install these oils if I request them?
Or do I have to buy them for someone else?

Thank you.

 take it to your dealer (imo)

Or order it from Summit Racing and save a little money.

Or if your in the southeast close to Lowes Motor Speedway try,


www.bsrproducts.com

This place for me is like a big toy store.

I could spend some money there.

Thank you.

Some dealers will allow you to bring your own fluids in to be installed and some will not... it's up to the individual dealer. Some dealers sell other brands of oils (other then the MoCo brands), and some don't.... again it's up to the individual dealer.

The same here for the shifting.  Redline is great!    

By the way I just called my dealer and told them I was going to bring my own fluids and they said that it would be fine.

been using mobil 1 for sometime now because it is readily availible and thought all top of the line synthetics were comparable. i had mobil1 v-twin in the primary and engine, the mobil 1 gear oil in the tranny.  at the suggestion of someone i ordered a case of the redline 20-50w motor oil,  3qts of mtl primary, and 2 qts of shockproof.   put the mtl in primary and shockproof in tranny yesterday,  took it for the obligatory test ride. WOW! never knew my serg could be operate so smooth.  if you haven't tried it, you need to. i'm sold on the redline products and will do the engine oil soon. you're missing out if not using redline products.

Glad you posted TN, I run Mobil 1 as well, have been waiting for someone to change from Mobil 1 to Redline to see if it was worth it or not, my next service i'm going to Redline and try it out.
