 Was using dino oil in the bike and decided to try 20w-50 mobil 1 because wally world had the jugs on sale for $22 and change. Holer crap what a change, the gears are about silent and the tranny shifts so much easier. I'm a believer and I won't go back even if I nave to pay full price next time!

Getcha a couple more gallons while it's on sale.  cooldude Long as the inner foil seal is intact it won't get contaminated and it has a REALLY long shelf life.  coolsmiley RIDE SAFE.

Did you make sure you bought the M1 without "Energy Conserving" label on the back?

mobil 1 15w50  is what I've ran in two valks for a combine milage of 130,000 miles. No "Energy Conserving"  in lower half of circle on the back. Nothing in the bottom half.

My guess is that 20w50 was a typo.  I'll bet he actually has 15w50. 

That's what I run.  In both of them.  I like it a lot.

I'm guessing this is the synthetic Mobil 1 15-50 oil. Shocked
