I need a professional opinion from an "oil guru type" regarding engine oil for my 07 HD 96" V-Twin. I now use M1 V-Twin 20W/50 synthetic in my engine. I know this is most likely the best oil made for the bike, except for Amsoil. But, the stuff is almost $10.00 per quart now. In the HD manual it states if you can't get HD oil, one can use a diesel grade oil until you can get HD oil.
Now my question is why wouldn't Delo 15/40 work just fine in my engine? I live and ride mostly in the hot So Cal desert. I would think a diesel grade HD oil such as Delo would work just fine. Besides, Delo is around $11.00 per gallon. That's a large difference in price. Anyone?
