Any of you guys use that for the chaincase/transmission.

We are limited in the lubricant choices here and I have to order a case of 12. Since I'll have a bunch, I was wondering if it was useable in the Buell as well as my two Harleys.
Thanks in advance for any advice.

The big problem with selection of what fluid to run in the primary on Buell's is whether or not they eat the clear coating on the stator wires. This takes time, 15,000 miles or so.

So anyone that may be running this should also include how many miles they have used it and if they have ever had to replace the stator since first introducing that transmission oil.

I wouldn't use anything other than Sportrans (or whatever they're calling it these days) or 20W50 synthetic motor oil.
