$13.50 and $20.00 for a quart of what ???? For that kinda money I will leave it on the shelf at CrappyTire or any place else for that matter.
But if money is no object all the power to you.
Just my .05 opinion on this subject.

Mobil 1 V-Twin 20/50 was $12.99 now $15.99 at Canadian Tire.
The Canadian dollar has taken a **** kicking against the greenback over the past months...lost 20%.
Mind you, a barrel of oil was $147 and is now $40...go figure. I figure synth has to be competative to some degree to dino. Too large a gap could sent a lot of people running back to dino.

At those prices, you could use the cheapest dino you can find (20/50 meeting specs) and SELF INSURE against any problem with the savings!!!!!!!!
IF you ride lots of miles and change often, you could probably buy a new bike in a few years with the savings.
Honestly, the marginal difference (real world, not some esoteric analysis in a lab) between the best and worst modern oils, especially in a cooler climate, do NOT justify the boutique prices when the economy is in ruin!

I totally agree. The only reason I run it here is, during the summer, it does get hot. The traffic here is brutal at times and idling in traffic for extended periods of time is not uncommon. I live in a city of 2 million designed for about half that many.
