I use Amsoil in my car engines and luv it but I am wondering if anyone here uses it in there Busa and if so do you like it?
This is the one I'm thinking of using.

Doesn't fully-synthetic oil make your clutch slip?

If you follow the link there are lots of comparisons to other oils,I use the Rd50 racing oil in the Vette because of the high zinc levels that older v8 engines need.[zinc was removed from oils because it shortens the life of catalytic converters which maters to some but not a good thing for older flat tappet engines]
The motorcycle oil is available on ebay au at the moment but it can be sourced cheaper.
This oil is the first true 100% synthetic oil made.

Not if they have the correct package included with the oil
I have used full syn never had a problem but then i use Oleon which is as good as ANY full syn out there.
Good to know.
I'm using Motul "something" at the moment but I wouldn't mind getting a fully-synthetic oil as we come into summer. I don't know about yours, but my Busa gets fkn ridiculously hot! - The temp gauge never goes over halfway, but it feels like I'm sitting on top of an oil heater.

there is a comparison there and I think Motul 300v is the closest.
