Big motorcycle engines produce a LOT of heat, and Amsoil oil helps reduce that heat as well as standing up to the heat and provides engine protection in the most adverse conditions.

First time using Amsoil in my Road King. Trying it in all three holes as suggested. So far so good. Finding neutral much easier now. I'll let you know what it looks and feels like after the next change.

Using it on my 2014 Slim and 2008 X bones since after their first oil change
Actually use AMSoil specific lubes in all three holes
Bikes run cool, quiet and shift like butter. Neutral is always there and I never see
metal deposit anywhere
Both bikes have similar milage and just finally got around to opening the primary on them to check chain tension and was blown away that either bike didn't. No explanation for that, sorry. Best part while in there was seeng the nylon shoe on the chain tensioner was barely worn
Hope to get another 40k mi out of them
Love AMSoil lubes

I operate my 1961 harley Davinsion duo glide also known as a pan head , I use it in the motor and four speed transmission ,having driven it eight thousand miles and only adding three quarts to top it up as the primary and secondary chains are lubricated by the engine oil and then allowed to drip out .I keep an eye on the quality of the oil by checking it with my lubricheck oil tester .

I used amsoil in my 2011 Street glide. This is my first oil change since u got this bike so not sure what was in it when I got it. I used amsoil in engine,primary and tranny. The biggest noticable difference is in the tranny. I can really tell the tranny shifts a lot smoother. Love amsoil!!

Amsoil is a superior product. I used 20w50 it in my motorcycle for years and just sold it with 55,000 miles on it with no repairs. I changed it every 4,000 miles and it was as clean upon draining it as the day I put it in. The engine oil also lubricated my wet clutch with no problems or failures. Great product.

I discovered and have been using Amsoil oil over 15 years, this particular oil that I'm reviewing is going in my 2015 Victory Cross Country, and was previously used and my Yamaha Roadliner, also previously used in my Honda Rebel, my Honda Shadow Aero, in my Yamaha VLX.
I run full synthetic in all, I can physically feel a difference in the smoothness of the motor. I can also operate longer between oil changes.
I run AMSOIL in ALL my 4 & 2 wheel vehicles.

Started using Amsoil in the late 70s, Mostly 15/40 diesel marine used it in my cars trucks boat and motorcycles and over 30 years in my honda lawnmower ( still using the mower) also used the gear oil and 100-1 two stroke oil .I think my old husky chainsaw called for 16-1people told me that stuff is to thin or it will leak oil or you will void your warranty!I never needed to use a warranty nothing ever wore out.Any machanics that have serviced my equipment comment that thing is like new inside.I only use other oils when I don't have Amsoil.

Swapped this oil into my 2019 Harley Ultra Limited for the 1k service. So far, I feel this oil quiets the engine down and makes it run smoother. I did not run this oil in all three holes since there are mixed reviews on if engine oil should be used in the primary and transmission.

Many years ago, I read an
article in Motorcycle Consumer News (similar to Consumer Reports), a magazine that does not have sponsors and is free to say what they think, that ALL full synthetic motor oil is superior to dino oil in motorcycles, particularly the air cooled ones. I've been using AMSOIL products in my cars, truck and motorcycles for decades and I've never been let down. My Harley Sportster 883 is supposed to run upwards to 240 degrees F in hot weather, especially at interstate speeds. On the hottest days the temperature gauge in my oil tank never goes over 205 degrees and on secondary roads, averages about 195 degrees.
I don't have any other oil to compare this to but on the Harley internet forums, this particular oil is the top choice. I don't plan on switching just so I can compare products. I'm sticking with this oil because , "if it ain't broke, don't fix it".
The Sportster uses this same oil in the separate (dry sump) oil tank for the wet clutch and works perfectly. The Big Twins use a heavier gear oil and
AMSOIL is still a top choice on the forums.

Use this in a couple Harley's when doing the oil changes. First off there was a noticeable change in engine tone. Engine runs smooth. Also put it in the primary and no problems. An interesting thing found is how clear the oils is still after 3k on one and 5k on the other. The "manufacturer" brand oils seems to get darker well before that. I also want to point out that even after long long rides to and from the oil level hasn't even dropped! No one drop still at full. Been riding around with a extra qt for nothing. Will continue to use from now on. So far very please with this oil. Would recommend.

I use this product in 2003 Dyna Lowrider exclusively. Since the switch from the factory synthetic, I have noted less upper valve train noise and smoother and quieter shifts. This oil does everything I need it to do for my bike, and I have switched all of my engines and machinery around the house to Amsoil products as well.

"06 Electraglide
When I first took on my 2006 Electraglide ultra classic that had 14,000 miles on it of course had Harley oil in it . The machine was an oil drinking demon that was making the oil producers wealthy . After doing some research and speaking with people I settled on Amsoil 20/50 Vtwin synthetic . Once I did the changeover to Amsoil I was stunned at the results , no more oil consumption , lower engine noise and considerably noticeable heat coming from engine. Amsoil is the winner in my bike!!
