Mobil 1 doesn't make an "auto" 20w-50. They do make an "auto"15w-50 which will work just fine. Try an Auto Zone, and ask about it the V-Twin 20w-50. Many of their stores around here carry it, but don't put it on the shelf. They should also order it for you, if you ask. You could also go to the Mobil company site and probably find a dealer in your area that handles it.

Autozone or you could move up to Amsoil. I find that dealers in my area have been selling the Amsoil as well as Syn 3

I am a believer in changing oil every 3000 miles. Therefore spending $8 to $9 a qt for Amsoil (or any other oil for that matter) is a huge waste of money IMO. Haven't been able to find Mobil1 20w50, but if it is that exspensive it will be out also. I was a reliability engineer for GM for a long time and have come to the conclusion that clean oil with a fresh filter is the way to go. For me.

If your preference is to change at longer intervals then I guess the high buck stuff is ok

P.S. I have been to two Auto Zone stores with no luck. But I didn't ask

You can get QUALITY oil in Amsoil for 6 bucks a qt, not to mention other care products. All you pay is $20 each year. Thats a minimum savings of $16.00 a year figured at12,000 miles a year. I for one will stick with a good synthetic oil and do a change at every 3k.

My local metric motorcycle shop carries it. Call around and see what you can find.
