I found it at o'rielly autoparts so i thought i would give it a shot. They also had mobil 1 and amsoil. I haven't seen too many talking about it, so ill be posting after i get some miles on it.

I use it. It is a strong oil. Its operating viscosity is on the high end for 50 weight, just barely under being a 60 weight. The viscosity index is very high, higher than Mobil 1 and higher than amsoil MCV. If you do not know, viscosity index is a measurement of how well an oil resists thickening at colder temps and thinning out at high temps. It thins out less hot and thickens less when cold than M1 and MCV. It does not give the extra top end noise others will. Mine sounds the same as when I used dino oil.

You will be very happy with it.

Using it since my last oil change.
It was a buck cheaper than Mobil V-Twin at Autozone.

Cant tell any difference from the Mobil that was in before.
