    I have a 2004 sportster 1200 that my wife bought me for Christmas last year. It had 16500 miles. I have mobil 1 v-twin 20w50 in the primary and I have no clunk sounds and the clutch feels perfect.

    Rotella T6 5w40 vs Mobil 1 0w40 For Polaris ATV

    But at the same time I wonder how many sales they lose because someone has a Polaris speced for a 0w40 ,but all Polaris has to offer is a 2w50. I have a 2009 rzr and I use rotella t65w40 but would like to know if Polaris discovered a legit reason to be using a 50w oil in these engines. I still...

    2010 Kawasaki Brute Force | Front Diff | 45 miles

    I believe it uses a clutch system to progressively lock the two wheels together based on how far you pull in the yellow lever. I have an 07 but never had it apart. The rear end has a wet brake built into it.

    oil filter for a HD sportster

    I would use either the Fram or K&N filters from Advanced Auto. Buy enough at once to qualify for one of the 40% discounts and it's a good deal.

    Can I use this in my sportster transmission?

    I use the mobil1 v-twin 20w50 in my sportster trans/primary,but the rotella t6 would probably be just as good. Somewhere in the FAQ section on Mobils website it actually recommended their 10w40 over the 20w50 for the trans/primary. My current fill is 2 quarts of valvoline vr1 20w50 and 1vr1...

    You haven't been to Wally world in a while(like myself), because I just came from there and it was over $13. Still cheaper than the Castrol.

    saturn idle.question.

    The only thing I would add to this is when my 97 Saturn starting experiencing a high idle,I found a vacuum leak on the short piece of hose going between the intake and valve cover,it also has a Pcv valve. My hose had dry rot and when replaced the idle lowered by a good bit. It is common though...

    Can I use this in my sportster transmission?

    http://www.mobiloil.com/USA-English/Moto...low_Metals.aspx Mobil recommends against it. I have read of stator problems in the Sportsters and many/most were using mobil gear oil. I think the sportster is spec'd for a gl-1.

    Happy you posted this because I have been curious how the Napa test looked and what it checked for. Nobody at the Napa stores could tell me anything. It's cheap compared to the others.
