Re: Engine Oil Poll

Please keep all conversations and questions on oils to the oil forum instead of posting them in the POLL threads.

The POLL threads are for gathering information on the products and not for discussions about the products themselves .

The OIL forum is for the questions and answers.

Oil - Harley Davidson Community

Thanks

5w30 is a poor choice for a Harley air cooled motor. Much too thin when hot compared to the 20/50 recommended for it.

Re: Engine Oil Poll

my mechanic used RevTech, has anyone ever heard of it, he used all the right weights, but I have never heard of this stuff, he also installed a RevTech oil filter. The guy owns his own shop, and is the President of the local Rolling Thunder, says he uses it and everyone else that he services. Just wondering about the stuff. Thanks
