BradPenn PennGrade in primary?

Anyone running the PennGrade 20w-50 green oil in their primary? I have been in the engine but looking into putting it in primary too for simplicity sake.

If you’re asking about PennGrade 1 V2 4-stroke 20W-50, I don’t see why not. Product description says “It meets JASO MA frictional performance requirements for wet clutches and is suitable for use in applications calling for one lubricant for the engine, transmission/wet clutch and primary chain systems (if applicable).”

The regular 20w-50 is available to me. Its not a big deal to me to keep running something else in primary or next change throw a few extra dollars at oil change time. 4 quarts doesn’t break the bank. Just throwing it out there if someone went rogue and put the regular 20W-50 in primary..

Check the specs on that specific oil.

If it "meets JASO MA frictional performance requirements for wet clutches and is suitable for use in applications calling for one lubricant for the engine, transmission/wet clutch and primary chain systems", then it will be OK to use in your primary...
