I do 10w40 in the engine and 20w50 v-twin oil in the clutch and haven't had one problem with the 450r or the previous cannondales that used this.
The v-twin oil is compatible with the clutches.

AMSOIL is some of the best stuff you can get. I know a guy that races cars who says when he runs a normal synthetic oil in his race tranny, the tranny is too hot to touch after a race, but when he runs AMSOIL synthetic, it runs much cooler. Very good stuff.

Why do you run 10w40 in the engine. Have you ever tried the 20w50 in both?

I will probably run the 10-40 on both sides. Does anybody run the 0-40 on here?

It depends on the temp. outside. I run it in colder temps around 30 degrees. and the 10W40 when the temp is above that.

So If the temp is above 30 I should run 10 in both sides

I'm not sure if their tranny oils are wet clutch compatible and may contain friction modifiers. I am also a dealer, 10w or 20w?
