Anyone have any thoughts on this product?
Synthetic oil additive.
Looking for real world input.

The auto products, especially the power steering and transmission additives work as advertised. I had a howling bearing in a Honda Accord's PSP that the Lucas product quieted down to nothing and allowed me to get an additional year of use. As far as their oils go, I've heard good things.

Yeah, I've used quite a bit of there auto related oils and additives, too. They are one of the very few "as seen on tv" things that work as advertised. Still, for my bike I would just stick with a good full synthetic bike oil. Lots of solid choices out there.

I agree I don't think I would run an additive in the oil could cause clutch damage.

if you do a lot of drag racing the additive will help your clutch
i usually pull the clutch in my gsxr1000 and coat the plates with it then reinstall, helps the clutch slide when using the stock cluch with heavy springs.

I sell and use Lucas.
In my 450 rwhp supercharged Mustang, I use the 20w50 Racing motor oil. No other motor works like this oil. Oil pressure usually dropped with time, but NOT with this Lucas oil!! Oil pressure is always the same as when you do an oil change!!
As for my ZX14, I use Motul oil and something like 500ml (I can't remember right now how much) of Lucas Synthetic Oil Stabilizer.
And yes, the tranny and PS stuff works awesome for real!!

They have Lucas full synthetic Motorcycle specific Oil that i've been using in my bikes .
So far i like how it makes the shifts feel and how it still looks good after 5000 miles of use .
