It is not bad, seems to be serviceable oil. But old plain VR1 Non synthetic is still one of the best I have seen in a Twin Cam.

Nice, good report, just as good and better then many fine motorcycle oils. Yet the cost is much lower. I look at the Quicksilver as the Rotella of the Motorcycle Synthetic oils.

The viscosity is a bit lower in the 20/50 range such as HD360, Mobile 1 etc. But that is mostly known now and if you think about it, what does it matter, its still way more "heavy" then a 10 or 15/40 which is still good in any engine. Im in a super hot summer climate so I tend to look at that, not that it means anything. )

I feel for the price, if you want a syn specific syn motorcycle oil that you cant go wrong.

As Robinson said, if you dont go with a specific motorcycle oil, the Vr1 oils do turn in great numbers as far as UOAs. If what a UOA is all that matters to you.

Looks like a good report to me, and I believe Quicksilver is typically available at Walmart.

Nice drop in copper.
