I just put some in my bike for the first time. I've always run rotella and mobil 1. Bike seems real smooth with the red-line.
Red Line is the best . . . its all i've ever run . . . period !

Best How? I too have used most brands too. Use Redline in manual trans in my Vette Good products but hard to find local on the shelf. Never used their oil in engine, Mobil 1 4T...Amsoil and kaw oil in this 14. Have 52,000 miles on old FJ1200 tried them all no difference. But I change every 2500 miles or so.

Group 5 ester based oils are the only oils that can pass the strict perameters the airlines use in there jet turbine engines. The revolutions these engines spin is astronomical and anything less than a group 5 ester based oil will "sheer brakedown". I also own a 500hp turbo busa and the turbo spins at a fast pace also when "boost positive", I ONLY USE THE BEST WHEN I HAVE $30,000 INVESTED.

Your Busa is not a jet liner :-) I have twice that amount in my Vette. No large caps here.
Uh is this a Busa site? You need a Bigger air filter, do a lot of left turns ??
Are you related to FBA LMAO. Lets see if you get 50,000 miles out of a Boom engine.
Try NASA ISO1200
ultra Super Turbo oil. You may get 2 summers before a top end is needed.
I was asking Bob a question about Redline. Did not need a look at my Busa pic.
Nice Busa for a straightline rides to Starbucks. Light the Fuse, do some WOT
in 6th gear. Your oil will save you. Just kiddin........... Good Looking bike.

Thanks, I also own a zx14{this is the right site}, Harley, and kawasaki z1000...Yea, the left turns are far from agressive...lol. I have 6700 miles on this bike now and it was turboed at 300 miles. My last turbo bike had 18,000 miles on it with nothing but one valve adjustment, before I sold it. Red Line all the way on both. Thats not to say another oil would not have performed just as well, but a group 5 ester based oil is the best oil available to the public today. There are 3-4 companies who produce them. Are they necessary, probably not but what if????????
