  1. A) What type of harley

    B) are you using a dipstick temp which also gets heat

         from the engine case. Will read hotter.

    5.  What oil temperature is best for my Harley-Davidson?

        A good oil operating temperature range is 200 deg to 240 deg F.  Water condensation and acids tend to build up in the oil if the temperature is consistently below 180 deg F, and oil thickness can become marginal at temperatures above 300 deg F.


  2. try not to go more then 260 degrees after that the engine may overheat especially in traffic....its nice to saty above the boiling point of water at least for a while during the day. Gets rid of condensation.
