Guess I should consider that price a bargain, dealership in St. Paul asking nearly $19 a quart.  This is what happens when the Motor Company meddles in the free market…the consumer gets screwed.  It’s listed in the 2022 parts book for $12 and some change but when the dealerships realized that Harley eliminated their market competition by forbidding others to ship outside their market, then it was time to stick it to their loyal customers!

Agreed 100%!   Forcing everyone to buy from the aftermarket.   Syn 3 sales will go down and Mobil 1 sales will go up...

I checked our cost on the Liqui Moly 20 / 60 GT1 $55.14 for 5L jug.
Might as well give it a try with next service.
