Put the MCV in the primary as well. If you read the bottom of the front label is says so.

My bike definately runs cooler on Amsoil that either Screaming Eagle or Mobil1 V-twin. I base this claim on the fact that my fan doesn't come on as much after short-medium length rides.

Just switched to Screaming Eagle from regular oil in my 2006 City X . Seems quiter and shifts smoother, fan turns on less.

Currently running the 20w50 MCV in both. Broke it in on the HD360 stuff, switched to Amsoil early on, used Mobil1 once or twice, now back to the Amsoil. No oil related issues in ~24k miles.
