Amsoil although I haven't tried the others...  makes her run cooler and smoother.

No.  All of the lubricants mentioned meet the specifications required by Harley-Davidson.

I use the recycled non-detergent 30w in the engine.  It's all overkill and hype anyway.  Oil is oil.  In the transmission I use castor oil.  It was good enough for great grandpa it's good enough for me.  In the primary I use the stuff that just got drained out of the engine to give it one more life cycle.  Not like primary oil has to do more than carry off hear anyway.  Change it all every 5,000 miles.

   How do you like the sound of your fulsac 1.75 baffles.  I am considering them for my 09 FLHTCUSE4. I am in CA. so I will also be getting a noncat head pipe,freeflow air cleaner and some kind of remap or tuner. Completely stock right now.Gets 38MPG with passenger and luggage. Thanks in advance for any input. CAHDBIKER
