It's 10-40 in the SV, thats a v twin. What do the new Duc's run? I think HD like the heavy oil cause of the air cooling, and just went with it on the Buell cause they don't know any better... but who knows. |

I can't say anything for the evo engines, but I know it's the case with the sportsters, and being a big company I can see them being fine with a "jack of all trades" oil. |
