FYI: Shopping around pays.
I found my favorite oil at Walmart for a very good price. I came to realize that when Solomotoparts.com sent me an e-mail. They wanted $14.10 a qt.. Walmart locally $8.47 a qt. thats a savings of $5.63 a qt.

"Solomotoparts.com sent me an e-mail. They wanted $14.10 a qt."
Was Solo pricing the "Mobile1" at that price? Biggest rip-off I've ever heard of. I'm noting them as a company never to do business with, thanks for the heads up.
Even the top motorcycle spec oils arent that high

Yes, check it out on their website, High quality synthetic oils are high but that is just absurd.

Depends on who their suppler is. I used to have Parts Unlimited and they were sky high on their oil....hell, even dealer cost was more than you could find it at some places.
