Yeah I read the site, but that just seems very broadform.
I know when your talking about an automatic transmission, which uses wet clutchs like we have in our bikes, the friction coeficient is very important. If you have the wrong one is makes your clutches slip and eats them up, or grab to hard/fast and thats really hard on the whole unit.
I am gonna call them tomorrow and get all technical on that ass. I'll let you guys know what comes of it.

I know this thread is old but figured I would throw my 2 cents into the mix. Royal Purple Engine/Trans Oil

Hi,
Thought i'd give this a go as well. Have managed to find dealers in the UK. Royal purples web-site recommends the following:
Harley Davidson Sportster and Buell Engine Max-Cycle 20W50
Harley Davidson Sportster and Buell Transmissions Max-Cycle 10W30

You are "special" Special K, it's cool though I call my daughter (6mnths on the 27th) my little special ed monster, she does the cutest most retarded stuff sometimes...
I did switch out to the 20w50 Royal Purple oil today. I noticed a bit more engine noise, but fan seems not to kick on too bad, old oil was diirrrtttyyyy... Did ya'll know that Oreilly's will take your old oil? Did notice it seemed to tach up a bit quicker than before could be my imagination yet. When changing the transmission fluid do you have to change out the primary cover gasket thingy? Didn't want to crack into it until I knew for sure. Thanks Ya'll

i just switched from harley brand non-synthetic to royal purple synthetic in both holes yesterday and i have noticed immediate power results.
the bike revs up much quicker and performs better at higher rpms. i am amazed at what a difference in engine performance can come from just oil.
the bike is more responsive and eager to pop up the front wheel. it feels like my engine was freed up. thank god for this website and the people who share information on it because without it would have been thinking Harley brand is the best for the buell.
absolutely recommend royal purple.
