    Can anyone advise. just collected my new (second hand) 08 super glide. The guy I bought it from had only done 2,200kms, but never had it serviced.
     
    I cant get it into the dealership until mid Jan. Just checked the oil and it looks a bit low. 
     
    Okay I know this is a dumb question... But what type of oil should I buy to top it up??
     
    Thanks in Advance

    Lots of people recommend Mobile V-Twin 20W50 in all 3 holes.
    However it doesn't make sense to me to use it in transmission. Isn't 75W90 would be a better fit for a low surface area, high clamping force gears?
    What am I missing here?
