It's all right Hub. At least here in Cali our math skills are second to none, hence Mobil does not dare to shortchange us by a quart.

Now, let me see, 5 Qt. of Mobil 1 for $ 22.00...........vs...........4 Qt. of Rotella Sync. for $ 19.00, hmmmmm.......

I use whats known to be good and readily available.....Mobil 1 4t Racing syn for the busa and 1100, and Castrol motorcycle specific dino for the boosted 14. The Mobil's under 9 bucks a quart at Wally-world, and the Castrol is under 3

I put castrol as a second oil change at 3k miles and didn't like the way the bike shifted at all. I switched to Mobil1 4t Racing at 6k and it is as good as I remembered it in all my other bikes. I have been a fan of motorcycle specific Mobil1 for the last 8 years and like wasting my money on it. :)

I really didn't notice much diff going from castrol gtx car oil for the break in, to the mobil 4t in my busa. The 14 seemed to like the castrol as well. I'm prolly just not paying as much attention as I should be tho I do stretch the oil changes out with the syn...thats one of the reasons I use it

OK, I went to Walmart last night to settle this debate for myself. Mobil 1 0W30, 5W30 and 10W40 High Mileage were $22.00 for 5 quarts. All of those except the 10W40 High MIleage would be unuseable in our 14s. The only one I would personally use, the Mobil 1 5W40 Heavy Duty turbodiesel oil comparable to Rotella 5W40 synthetic is still $22 for 4 quarts. Go check it out for yourself.

And aftermarket exhausts!

check out amsoil.com for $10 you can become a preferred customer and get as much oil or other products they sell at wholesale price so a qt costs $8

fukk amsoil .i'm not paying 40.00 to 50.00 for oil changes ...when i change my oil every 30 passes.

but for street use good choice

Kruz, how about this one?

What the heck are you running a 15W50 weight oil in Steven, surely not in the 14?

Yea, your right that Rotella is crap, that's why if you go to the Bob is the Oil Guy website for motorcycles it's the most popular oil over there. You're right and everyone one else is an idiot. I'm gonna call BS here, the bottom line is you ran Rotella 5W40 in a 175,000 mile car and had lifter bleed down. You need a thicker high mileage oil for the old car so you don't get lifter bleed down...it's that simple. Any of the newer low viscosity fuel efficient oils would have the same problem in the old Merc.

yeap Rotella is not on my list either no more .. and i will never ever use that in my bikes again .. and i don't give a shitt what BOB has to say ..

Anybody that plugs his radiator core with JB weld doesn't deserve to run Rotella.

In fact, I might even call WalMart and have you banned from the Rotella aisle!
