Default Amsoil

I do not want to start a pissing contest. Just wondering if anyone uses Amsoil in all 3 holes. I have never used Amsoil but am considering it for convenience. I wonder how it affects shifting and what others have found using in trans. And primary. Thanks in advance for any thoughts.

Worked great in my EVOs, just too damn expensive for my blood.

I just did a full service, I use Amsoil in all my vehicles; GT500, SVT Focus, and did all 3 holes for the Bike, i've always had good service from Amsoil.

If you read the independent lab test Amsoil always comes in 1st or 2nd to none.
I have posted them on here numerous times.

Tried it in all 3. I had no issues in the engine or trans, but I didn't like the way it made the clutch feel when in the primary. Some people don't notice a difference in the way the clutch feels with different oils, but it makes a difference in my bike.
