It's made for fuckin tractor trailers.. I think it will provide enought protection for our bikes..

Plus its only 16$ a gallon..

That plus a 4$ Purlator Pure One Filter = a cheap and quality oil change.

I have heard several people say they use it in their bikes and have no complaints about it.

I have almost 3800 miles on my bike with Rotella. No complaints here. It's quite popular over on the ZX-10R forum.
