So if Harley recommends gear oil for transmissions why not get the best gear oil money can buy. Buy the way there are many Sportster riders who have 100K on their bikes usung 75W90 with no ill effects. Works for me. And the Red Line tect recommends it. They did test on it in the Sportster transmission with good results acording to the email he sent me.
I wont get caught in a posting "match" with you, I am posting to the person who started this thread. Just supply your proof, of which you have NONE. Why you may ask? Harley doesnt recommended a gear oil. You will not be able to produce anything from Harley saying so except your incorrect thought. BTW Harely DOES 100% recommend a 20/50 motor oil, there is a fact for you. Read any late version touring owners manual.
