Best Oil for Harley-Davidson: Why AMSOIL Is the #1 Choice

Harley-Davidson engines run hot and work hard. AMSOIL synthetic motorcycle oil is purpose-built for V-twin engines — delivering maximum protection and performance.

Why AMSOIL for Your Harley?

V-Twin Specific Formula

AMSOIL 20W-50 Synthetic V-Twin Motorcycle Oil is engineered specifically for the unique demands of air-cooled V-twin engines like those in Harley-Davidson motorcycles.

Superior Heat Protection

Harley engines run significantly hotter than water-cooled engines. AMSOIL's high-viscosity formula maintains a protective film even at extreme temperatures.

Wet-Clutch Compatible

Formulated to work with wet-clutch systems — no friction modifiers that can cause clutch slipping.

Transmission & Primary Chaincase

AMSOIL offers dedicated fluids for Harley transmissions and primary chaincases — a complete lubrication solution for your bike.

Extended Drain Intervals

Longer drain intervals mean fewer oil changes and more time riding. AMSOIL synthetic lasts longer than conventional motorcycle oils.
