Harley appears to be pushing their own brand of gear oil for the Harley transmissions and primary chaincases on the big twins. 80W-140, I believe.
They're still stocking the previously recommended Formula+ lube.
I know that a lot of the Harley guys use gear oil in their transmissions, but I thought it odd that Harley is now recommending gear oil because they never did, before. Does anyone know of a reason that they would switch this recommendation ?
Also, does anyone know how close their formulation is to, say, all of the rest of the 75W-140 gear oils ?
