AMSOIL 15W-60 100% Synthetic V-Twin Motorcycle Oil

AMSOIL 15W-60 Synthetic V-Twin Motorcycle Oil is designed to offer maximum protection and performance for V-Twin engines, particularly for brands like Indian and Victory. This oil is engineered to provide exceptional wear protection in high-heat conditions typically found in air-cooled engines and extreme-pressure regions of gears and chains. It contains a high level of anti-wear additives and is thermally stable, resisting breakdown and preventing sludge and carbon deposits. The oil also offers superior rust protection and is catalytic-converter compatible. It ensures excellent wet-clutch performance, providing smooth shifts and preventing slippage and glazing. The product meets API SM and JASO MA/MA2 specifications and is compatible with other conventional and synthetic motor oils, though mixing oils may reduce its effectiveness. AMSOIL recommends using this oil for up to 2X the motorcycle manufacturer-recommended change interval or one year, whichever comes first, when paired with an AMSOIL Ea® Motorcycle Oil Filter.

15W-60 and 20W-40 Synthetic V-Twin Motorcycle Oil

Developed by AMSOIL for use in Victory and Indian motorcycles.

AMSOIL Synthetic V-Twin Motorcycle Oil is a premium oil designed for those who demand the absolute best lubrication for their motor cycles. It is the result of extensive research and is specially formulated to excel in all areas unique to motorcycles, including the high temperatures of air-cooled engines, wet-clutch lubrication, extreme-pressure regions of gears and chains, and rust protection.

AMSOIL 15W-60 and 20W-40 Synthetic V-Twin Motorcycle Oil provides Indian and Victory riders the confidence and security that comes with receiving maximum protection and performance for their bikes. It presents a premium alternative to higher-priced manufacturer branded oils.

AMSOIL 15W-60 100% Synthetic V-Twin Oil Motorcycle Oil

Reduces Friction, Heat and Wear

AMSOIL Synthetic V-Twin Motorcycle Oil is engineered to protect critical components in high-heat conditions. It exceeds the standard for high-temperature film strength to deliver excellent wear protection (see graph) and contains a heavy treatment of anti wear additives to reduce wear regardless of operating conditions. AMSOIL Synthetic V-Twin Motorcycle Oil is thermally (heat) stable and contains maximum levels of oxidation-inhibitor additives. It is extremely resistant to breakdown and is engineered to prevent damaging sludge and carbon deposits for superior engine cleanliness.

Provides Anti-Wear Protection for Gears and Chains

AMSOIL Synthetic V-Twin Motorcycle Oil is shear stable and resists thinning from mechanical activity. It performs like a gear lube without the negative effects of extreme-pressure additives, such as poor wet-clutch performance

Delivers Superior Rust Protection

Motorcycles are prone to rust from storage, humidity and short drives. Rust can cause major damage, such as uncontrolled wear, compression loss and blow-by. Good rust protection, however, comes by design and is not natural to motor oils. Unlike many motorcycle oils, AMSOIL Synthetic V-Twin Motorcycle Oil contains special anti-rust agents, providing outstanding protection against rust and corrosion.

Catalytic-Converter Compatible

AMSOIL Synthetic V-Twin Motorcycle Oil meets the requirements for emission-system protection and is designed for use in motorcycles with catalytic converters.

Provides Excellent Wet-Clutch Performance

AMSOIL Synthetic V-Twin Motorcycle Oil delivers the confidence of quiet, smooth shifting and positive clutch engagement. It controls heat and helps prevent slippage and glazing.

Higher value reflect better protection. The High-Temperature/High-Shear Viscosity Test (ASTM D5481) measures a lubricant's viscosity under severe high-temperature and shear conditions, similar to severe operating conditions experienced by motorcycles.
