[QUOTE="Jaybird, post: 971340, member: 22283"] The oil industry as a whole are not really crooks. I feel they are simply taking advantage of marketing tactics in many cases. But, in defence of the oil mfg's, some additives that are placed in motor oils are not detectable in a coventional oil analysis. Some propriatary (top secret) additives may show up as other types of chemicals simply due to their molecular makeup. Others simply don't show...or aren't looked for with conventional analysis. Antimony TCD is probably one of those good additives that does not reveal itself in the tests. Sometimes the virgin oil analysis is not the best way to judge between two oils. Often times the used analysis of both oils will prove to provide the best information. Also...a buttload of barrier additives cost very little money per qt. to add. Nothing I've seen would warrant the increase of price you see on these boutique moto specific oils. [/QUOTE]
