Mobil 1 v twin, for what its worth my son in law works on Harleys and swears by it, claims you dont get the "varnishing" on the internals the way you do with a lot of other oils.

I tried Crisco but it just makes it too hard to start when it's cold here.

Lately I've been using Syn 3 since it's easy to get and is full synth. helps shifting too, so I run it in the primary as well. Have run Mobile 1 and Royal Purple in the past without complaints.

Just started using Mobil -1 V twin in both holes. Coincidentally, my clutch bearing went Kaput. It sure shifted great up until then. I did notice a little more valve noise with the synth.
