James, I have never heard a BAD thing about amsoil, and I enjoyed that article. Email me a price for a case to gilberjj@gmail.com
My bike is full race now. I race in 50-100 degree temps, and I would rather the oil last long then give me 1 more hp......
I would say my priorities are....
protection
price
longevity
performance
You got it! Tressie should be emailing you shortly. Don't let her get away without paying the preferred customer membership for you, so you can get it a wholesale price.
Thanks
James

I had to go back and read what I stated. I'm corrected, Moly is used to prevent metal to metal contact along with other characteristics. Zinc was the previously used additive and still is, but a lot less due to EPA guidelines. The higher amounts of zinc through prolonged use stood to be the most cost effective and best additive for years. Some MC oils use Moly but not a whole lot of because of clutch slippage. Some more, some less. Ask anybody that uses Amsoil MC about the clutch grab. I still would not advise anybody to use any car oil that has the fuel savings economy label because of the amount of moly, and again some automotive oils are excellent in our bikes. Some more than others. And I've been called worse. Never met to imply the wrong thing.
