09 Road King 1st service dealer suggested oil

[FLHT-Steve]

I just put my 09 Road King in for the 1st service @ 1041 miles. In my previous bikes (04 FLHT, 00 Indian Chief) I used RedLine full syn in all 3 (shock proof trans oil, primary & engine). The service rep @ the H-D dealer says they do not recommend full syn in all 3 "because the clutch may slip".... what the fu**.... I think he was trying to steer me away from syn completely. I asked about Redline & he was cool about it saying "you can use it BUT if anything happens... warranty.....blah"... So I went with H-D full syn in the engine & blended in primary & trans. I'd like to go with Redline full syn in all 3 @ 3000 miles..... comments? The shock proof trans oil in the Indian made it shift like "butta"!
Thanks!!!!!!!!!!
Steve

I have used synthetic in all 3 holes for years never an issue. Your choice is which flavor. Any of the top 3 are good and you can't go wrong.
