I use 75/90 Torrco and have hundreds of passes on my Jerico. Always looks new. But I guess Torrco is no longer around?

Well mine has 50 but our whole family runs Jerico dr4's and some are in the 200 pass range and they all look great and we all run the same 75w90 mobil.

I think any good 75w90 would be fine honestly.

Light weight red line. One Quart. Never had a single problem.

I think any synthetic would be fine, but I really like the lightweight redline. I have been using that for about 6 years now. 1 quart. The big thing is to change it out periodically. I change it once during the season and again in the off season when we look it over. Never had any lube related issues, but I have seen some where they never changed the fluid out and cleaned the magnet. More junk running around inside is not a good thing. The magnet is strong,but it will get "full" of stuff if you don't tend to it once in awhile. I also added some good side drain plugs with rare earth magnets to grab as much debris from wear that I can.

is that redline's shockproof you guys are talking about?
i run it in my harley...

Yes. It's the lightweight shock proof gear oil. That stuff clings to the gears great. That's why you can get away with one quart.
