Default royal purple oil

Is there anyone out there using royal purple oil, and if so do you know the difference between the cycle max , and the regular 20/50

Default RE: royal purple oil

My guess is that it doesn't have those additives that will give wet-clutch motorcycles grief. Depends if you have a wet-clutch is all. If you don't then I'd say you can use the regular in your bike.

I've heard good reports about Royal Purple.
