So I am searching for synthetic, NON resource conserving 0w20 oil for racing. Oil seems to change every 3 min but I assume the conserving stuff still is no good for bikes. I just dont want a $100 oil change but that seems to be asking too much.
Anyone know where I can score this?
I use Shell t6 Rotella 5w-40 1 gallon for 21 bucks from walmart.
Wet clutch safe.

That's the stuff I've used in the past, wet clutch safe, definitely not cheap though.
Other options:
http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com...Ultra-Oil.aspx 0w10 and 0w30 full syn for $13 a liter
http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com...Motor-Oil.aspx 0w40 full syn for $13.50 a liter, big supporter of US motorcycle racing
I can't find much else for motorcycle specific 0w stuff.
I don't know where you're spending $100 for an oil change but you're paying way too much

I put regular valvoline motorcycle oil (Dino) 10w-40 in the sv, I don't even bother with synthetic since I change it so often. $6 a quart, Never had an issue, and it really shifts nice with that stuff for whatever reason. Also the regular Honda crap, hp4 or whatever works good.

The 0w stuff is awesome for squeezing all you can out of a race motor though. My CRF70 LOVES the stuff.
Kurlon thanks, that is the cheapest I have seen. Not sure I can get away with the 0w10. Gotta be thinner than gun oil but maybe the ow30. So a little over 50 clams for a change + filter.
Yup. Use it in my SV

I like amsoil personally. But this has just turned into another oil thread.

C'mon, someone has the 411......I run the cheap stuff on the street but need some 0w20 or 30
Run Amsoil. Only $50 for oil and filter.
Also if you are racing, you can talk to Dave in the Amsoil garage about being signed up for a proffered customer, so you can save even more.
