    Motul fully synthetic 20W50.

    Anyone have experience with this oil? Anyone have an analysis of it after an interval? How does it hold up in moderate climate and moderately aggressive riding? Thinking of using this stuff, but at $18/quart at the local dealer, it's not something I want to jump into without checking out all...

    BMW R1200R (boxer) and Schaeffers 5w-40 (9000).

    Ok, I've got a 2012 R1200R that hit 3000 miles and isn't' burning oil anymore... I managed to seat the rings with good break-in technique. I'm wanting to switch the bike to synthetic and have several gallons of Schaeffers 9000 series (API CJ-4) in my garage that I use on my BMW car as well as...

    Royal Purple 85w-140 in rear differential

    Curious... what do some of you think about going to a thicker viscosity oil for the rear diff? Assuming moderate temps and moderate towing duties... I can't see what the disadvantage would be leaving 75w90 to 85w140 fully synthetic? or am I missing something? thanks

    MotorSilk and shelf life?

    My friend just got a few 16 oz sized MotorSilk (treats 5 quarts) on 50% sale from the local auto parts store. I noticed that the manufacture date on them was Aug 2007, and the use by date was Aug 2008... this is basically one of those boron metal treatment additives I believe... does the shelf...

    thoughts on Royal Purple "Purple Ice"

    I was thinking of adding this stuff to the coolant for long, heavy hauling, maybe for when it heats up. I sometimes tow between Phoenix and Portland, a 15,000lb trailer.. I haven't done any towing yet with my new truck, and it might not even need it, but with my older Dodge, the temps would...

    Switching to fully Synthetic.. recommendations?

    Ok... I'm coming up on 1500 miles on my 2011 Chevy 2500 Duramax and wanted to go full synthetic on the fluids.. I've already replaced the Dex VI with TranSynd in the Allison (it's what they recommend and it's made by Castrol for them), and I did Royal Purple 75/140 in the rear diff when I had...
