i remember when i dont recall when amsoil 20w50 showed up read about it in their ads then picked up independent studies i decieded to try it in my 2000 sportster,'03 fatboy,'05 elec glide,'08 dyna,'12 triglide,'16 sporty 48,with those modern seals not too much problem just a very minor seep around the rocker box covers. only a couple of those bikes involved. probably would have happened with conventional. the harley dealer said dont do it then harley a few yrs later pu their name syn 3 for all three holes.
