I just changed my '07 Electra Glide with 18k miles from the high-dollar m/c synthetics to VR1 last weekend. Haven't been able to ride it yet ([censored] weather) but fully expect it to perform well based on the experiences of others.
With XIED's for heat management, a 10-row oil cooler, and considering 90% of my riding is mellow highway cruising, I just don't see the point of $12/qt boutique oil when $4.50/qt VR1 seems more than capable of doing the job effectively.
As they say- YMMV...
