beagle Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 I have a case of amsoil 20w50 v twin oil. do you think it is ok to use on an 1150? Link to comment
duckbubbles Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 It's not a V-twin, is it? Now use a little brain- if it meets or exceeds the manufacturers recommendations, it's ok. I've used it in the past. Frank Link to comment
barncobob Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 most positively! the beemer is air cooled just like the hardley. i use the mobil 1 M/C equivalent, couldnt be happier. Link to comment
Tony_K Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Brains are highly complicated devices. It's much easier to ask questions here and let someone else do the work! Link to comment

T__ Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 I have a case of amsoil 20w50 v twin oil. do you think it is ok to use on an 1150? Beagle, actually that is a very good oil for air/oil cooled motorcycles.. Very good resistance to high heat, good anti wear additives, great engine storage additives.. Down side___ On the samples I have had tested the viscosity runs to the higher side of specs (I think the newest V-Twin Amsoil is slightly different) so extreme cold start cold ride away probably isn’t it’s strong suit.. I run that oil myself & do ride in weather that can get as low as 0°f so modulate my cold ride off habits a little in below freezing weather.. I see you live in my area so if you ride extreme cold weather keep that in mind.. Twisty Link to comment
Lion_lady Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 I just put in the last of my Amsoil 20W50 (bought a case) into my R1150R. I'll take that off your hands. P Link to comment
