Well in Europe, I got 4 Liters (1Q - 1.05L) of 20-50 syn-blend for, get his everyone!!!! 46 euro which on that day was about, oh... a tiny tiny $65. And that was in a 4L jug, not individual! Discount... hah. The filter... twice the price in the U.S. The gear lube! Oh fek... 15 euro... so about $22. Yeah... can't wait to get back to the U.S. sheeezus buda!

Mobil 1 is good shiz. Put that in my cars always... well that or Valvoline depends on the car. Bike gets the HD SYN3 except for the last change... trying out a new oil. Won't use HD's oil again. Probably will get Mob 1 now that I know I can get it at Autozone. Walmart should get the right oil in... we'd flock there!

Mobile 1 is 100% synthetic,,,not a syn-blend...and I won't let that HD SYN3 near my scoot...Harley buys their oil from the cheapest source...Pure synthetic is the best insurance policy you can have on your motor and the better you buy, the better off you are..I really don't price shop oil..I want the best I can get...

I have run Lucas synthetic with the stabilizer for several years.....just got tired of mixing to get the recommended blend from Lucas..So I did a bunch of research and Amsoil, Royal Purple, Redline and Mobile 1 all had high scores..I talked to a lubrication engineer that does oil testing, and he said Mobile 1 was the best stuff he had tested, ironically this person sells Amsoil...says it's great but the numbers convinced him Mobile 1 came in # 1....
