Was he talking about the non motorcycle specific Royal Purple? The motorcycle Royal Purple I got was expensive as crap, twice as much as the price you said it's at Autozone for. Unless I was utterly ripped off haha.

I'm going to go with Mobil 1. Might go with Amsoil whenever I have some extra cash.

Re: Cycle whore thread

I use strictly Honda oil as did the previous owners for my F3, I just pick it up at the Honda motorsports parts store off Va Beach Blvd. As for Royal Purple I could be wrong and he can probably clarify, but I swear Q told me a lot of his engine problems were due to him using Royal Purple in his 600rr.
