Does anybody know of a synthetic eqivilant to this stuff?.... I've checked the KV and no joy.... My suspicion is that synthetic ATF would be a start in the right direction?... This application is for the 2006 XB12X tranny..

Mobil_1_Synthetic_ATF

Anyone?..

buy a quart and send it out for oil analysis than you will know its viscosity. or you can just look at it and do some simple tests to see how thick it is. I dont know if its as light as ATF though

We had it tested by Red Line and they stated that they do not have one at this time. ... F+ is only required on the new Dyna's Sporsters, and Buell's and they are all still on warranty, so Watch Out. F+ has an additive to increase clutch plate friction because of the new softer clutch spring. Kelly at RL thinks that their 75 90 could be too slick. ... Terry

If you have the 05 XB9SX then you have the older version of the clutch setup. You'll be just fine using it. I've been using it in my 05 XB9SX for 24,100 miles now.

In the 06 bikes I'm not certain yet. Waiting on others reports with how it's working for them.

I use 75 90 in everything except my "ULY" where I use F+. When I do the 1250 kit I will change the clutch spring install the Hyd clutch from American Sport Bike and start using 75 90. ... Terry
