For a 1980 Harley Ironhead, it's recommended to use a high-quality motor oil with a viscosity of 20W-50, specifically designed for air-cooled engines. Look for oils that meet the API classification of at least SF or SG. It's also advisable to consider using oils formulated for motorcycles to ensure optimal performance and protection. Always check your owner's manual for any specific recommendations.
To mount a regulator on a 1972 Harley Davidson Ironhead, you will first need to locate the mounting points on the frame or the engine. Once located, use appropriate bolts and nuts to secure the regulator in place. Make sure to connect the wiring harness correctly to ensure proper functioning of the regulator.

You can use the same oil that you use in your motor
should be 20-50 wt harley oil but check with your dealer first..
Harley Davidson recommends it (Citco I think) but No!!! Just use the correct weight for your motor, time of year and how you ride it!
Use HD oil only and if you can afford use synthetic
Recommended oil is 20w50
yes
80/90 semisynthetic hypoid gear oil is what the factory put in it but I use Red Line Heavy ShockProof fully synthetic gear oil. Not cheap but neither was your Harley.
we use 20/50 of any brand you choose.

I am not sure of viscosity, but if you have Harley Davidson on your fuel tank, you should use Harley Davidson lubricants. H. D. primary and trans lube or H.D. 20/50 synthetic motor oil will work just fine.
