Royal Purple
I've been doing a lot of research on lubricants (this thread is refering to motorcycle libruicants though I have done some research on personal lubricants as well 
) and have decided that Royal Purple is the way that I want to go. At least for now... That said what is the general opinion of running Royal Purple Max Cycle everywhere vs Running Max Cycle in the engine and Royal Purple Synchromax in the tranny?

RE: Royal Purple
I've been giving some thought to using Royal Purple myself. From what I've read here and elsewhere you can use the automotive version (20w-50 @$89.04/case of 12 qts) with no problems and save a few bucks over themotorcycle specific MaxCycle (20w-50@$133.44/case of 12 qts).

RE: Royal Purple
There was a test done that showed RP is the BEST oil you could ever run. Ever. You will be surprised how some "highly recommended" oils on this board didnt do so well...
