Hmm, maybe I'll hit up GM when it's time to change my oil.

I'm sorry Marko... you're a great buddy of mine.. but I almost fell out of my chair reading that... :lmao:

I'm glad it is working well for you Jesse. Much like Cutty said... I have seen good improvements on the cycles but not as much in the cars. I will say that when I did change the oil the last time... drained used Amsoil out, new in... I did get a rise of about 3mpg in the wife's car. So that is something... but just from freshing up the oil.

Your nuetral issue sounds exactly the same way it is in all my HDs and I believe the same as the Buells (duh right).

I hope the purchase was easy for ya. It could be easier by just clicking the link in my sig but then you'd pay more per unit and I'm trying to help you save $$. Let me know what else I can help you with.

well i've gone from Agip 15w-50 to M1 20w-50, now w/ only 1 day commute on it, the bike had a harder time starting and the shifting has gotten worse.

i'll give it some more time, but i may be trying amsoil, as AGIP is hard to come by

gas can you PM me a price for 4 qt to 77407

20w-50 m/c oil

No, certainly not the company. I really don't like any of you.

Youre still upset I drank all your beer.

The purchase was painless and the shipping was ridiculously fast. It came from Kansas City, only about 400 miles away from where I live.

Once I go through this gallon, I'll make the official decision and probably just become a preferred customer through you, so I can just place my own discounted orders.

Thanks again!

The only reason one oil shifts better than another oil is because it has a different additive package with different friction qualities.......Not because it's a better oil.

Also, did it affect your clutch? If it helps you shift better, then it seems like it might have more friction modifiers, which might be bad for the clutch.

All I'm saying is that different oils meet different objectives, but that doesn't make them better or higher quality.

In your case, switching to Amsoil was a success, since it acheived a specific objective you had. But the typical Amsoil buyer who only buys it because his friend says it's great is wasting his money unless it's actually solving a specific problem, like it did with you.

It's Amsoil's motorcycle specific oil, good for wet clutches. Clutch action seems to be the same as before.

The reason Rotella T6 works well in bikes is because of the lack of friction modifiers. Some auto synthetics will make your clutch slip.

With the rotella the shifting doesnt seem AS smooth but it doesnt seem to bother me much. I will also be putting it in the buell so i will see how it shifts in there.

I use Rotella regular petro for my car, since 90% of my driving is warm-weather highway driving, so I don't need the extra protection of a synthetic. But if I were living in the Midwest, or just did city driving, yeah I'd switch to the synthetic.

As for my bike, I figure the synthetic is better for high RPM's, especially since it's 5W-40 instead of 15-40 like the regular Rotella
