Royal Purple?

[tuscani451]

I just picked up some Royal Purple 20/50, I have been using Mobile 1 race oil. Any thoughts from the peanut gallery if there is any benefit from one over the other?

[Roger@Arroyo]

Been around a long time. Seemed like snake oil when it was first brought to market but I do believe it is good stuff. Not sure if it's still way overpriced because I never even look at it when im in a store.

yeah, I use Rotella-T Synth, personally.

Cheap and good.

[Roger@Arroyo]

Shell is good stuff, know lots of people that swear by it, especially airplanes and diesels.

I've used Castrol GTX 20-50 for as long as I can remember.

Harley SYN3 20-50 for my bikes. Metric or standard...

It is still way over-priced, I had a gift cert to a HD dealership (family gets confused as to what kinda bikes I ride) and the oil was thing I could find I could use lol

So why does everyone use 20-50 out here?

using Rotella T6 in the ninjette ford chevy and yamaha generator..It works well , you can get it wally world 24/7 for about 22 a gal..and specs are as good as any motorcycle oil..

I just switched to Rotella too. 12 bucks a gal vs 7 bucks(discounted) a quart.
