Default Anyone Using Valvaline Sythetic 20/50 Motorcycle Oil

I was picking up oil for the old girl and noticed Valvoline Synthetic 20/50 motorcycle oil so I picked up some for the oil change I just did on the 95 flstn. I was using Mobile 1 four stroke motorcycle oil. Don't know if it was smart or not but it's in there now for a test anyway.

I think we have really had it with oil threads for awhile. Maybe in the winter when we have a bit more free time.

Never used it and probably never will. Mobil 1 has been too good to me to change.

Now quit with the oil stuff.

No, but I have been using Valvoline dino 20w-50 motorcycle oil for a while. It works for me. But what do I know, my bikes only got 80k miles on it.

Mobil 1 V-Twin is 20-50. That's what I use.

X2. Mine runs good on dino oil. Quieter than the synthetic. To each there own. I also throw some Lucas in the 3 holes.

The K-Y commercials make it look like their new products can make the old girl see fireworks. But 'Tig' was using just plain ol Baby Oil for the 'Guati Hottie' in the last episode, and she sounded happy with it.
