FAQs
What oil do you recommend for Harley Davidson®motorcycles?
For all Harley Davidson and other air-cooled V-twin motorcycles, we recommend Royal Purple Max-Cycle 20W-50. If the owner’s manual recommends a 10W-40 or 15W-40, Max-Cycle 10W-40 is the best option.
What do you recommend for the primary case and transmission?
Royal Purple Max-Cycle® 10W-40 or 20W-50 motor oil may be used in the primary tank. For transmissions, Royal Purple recommends Max-Cycle 20W-50 or Max Gear 75W-90. NOTE: DO NOT use Max Gear lubricants in the primary or in any other component containing a wet clutch.
What product do you recommend for 2-cycle gearboxes?
For 2-cycle motorcycles with a separate transmission fluid reservoir, we recommend Royal Purple Synchromax or an engine oil from our Max-Cycle or HPS series. Please contact Royal Purple Automotive Technical department at 888-382-6300 for assistance
