Testimonial? You got one?
How about Klotz products in general?
That's not a name that's spoken on this site much..
Good but overpriced I'd say...How's that?

Well I checked the gear oil posting and the klotz brand, isn't even mentioned in the top ten oils. Someone here might be using it, but to me it sounds like a locally made and sold brand of oil. It probably would work as good as any other brand, but hasn't gained alot of popularity in the Harley circles.,,

I can't speak for their gear oils but their two stroke oil is terrific. I used to race very high performance Mercury outboards and Klotz was the only oil I would run.
Heck, just the great smell of the two stroke oil in the exhaust was enough to make you want to run it. Everybody thought I was running some kind of super fuel or something. LOL. I would not be afraid to run the gear oil just based on my experience with Klotz in the past.

LOL, ain't that the truth. I ran it in my H1 Kawa because it didn't smoke much and kept the plugs from fouling.

Klotz has been around for years, they just don't
blast ya with outlandish marketing in your face
like the big guys. I've used it at times, just can't
always find it.

Yeah, that's probably why their $2 bucks a qt. more than amsoil or M1-VT.

I started using it back in the early 70s I ran a Mercury Twister outboard never had a problem with it. Used it in my Snowmobiles, and used it in my Daughter's KTM back when she raced.
