Default Quicksilver Oil

Was in Walmart today and saw that they carry Quick Silver full synthetic 20w-50 oil. I have used their 2 cycle in my boat motor for years, but never 4 cycle. Anyone ever use this oil for their scoots?

That`s what I used when I had my boat a few years ago, but I would do some research on its additives first before putting it in your MC engine.

I have been running the Quicksilver vTwin full Syn for the past year and a half. It has a thicker feel to it then the Amsoil and M1 and I will promise you it is quieter, by far. It is all I use now. I have run Amsoil or M1 vTwin with the top end noise since 2005 and never liked what the TC's sounded like. This oil eliminated the clatter and it is priced lower.

running it myself. its quieter and does seem a little thicker. it meets the requirements by the manufacturer. I'm on my first change with it so time will tell. when its good and hot I still have decent pressure when running or just idling.

Quicksilver now makes 4 stroke synthetic motorcycle oil. I have been dying to try it!
At the same time I have been waiting for someone to post a UOA on it and the more I think about it, more so after the post from someone above, I very well may put it in for the winter and run a UOA in the spring.
One thing for sure, I always trusted and used Quicksilver lubricants in all my boats, after all, they are a division of one of the largest marine engine makers in the world.

Yep! `Can`t say enough about Quicksilver oil. I may also try the 4 stroke blend my next oil change.
