Yes the new products have been reformulated from last year. Correct!

25% more anti-wear & anti oxidants//higher amounts of zinc and phosphorus//enhanced synthetic base stock//improved high temperature detergent system etc,,.

Thats another reason that Honda came out with HP4 with and without moly.

My ducati has a dry clutch.

Mobil 1 MX4T has no friction modifiers, which could lead to clutch slippage.

The Mobil 1 V-Twin 20W50 has just been reformulated to deliver excellent performance in the EVO and Twin Cam engines and wet clutch primaries if the manufacturer specs a 85w90 or lower viscosity for the tranny.

Harley synthetic oil is only in a Harley package. Citgo used to blend all their oils like Exxon Mobil used to do Hondas. Not sure who Harley is using now though. Good wives tail though. Sounds like Harley didnt want to step to plate and admit a manufacturing or design flaw

Mobil 1 MX4T has just been reformulated with a new additive package so make sure you compare the NEW spec sheet and not the old one. I think youll find it to be a considerable improvement.

Use Mobil 1 V-Twin 20w50 It was designed just for air cooled engines. On a v-twin the rear cylinder always runs hotter due to the fact it isnt in the line of air flow to keep it cool so it counts on the oil to do that for it. Even though your BMW boxer engine has the heads coming out of the...

Motorcycle oils contain no friction modifiers since the oil is used to bath the clutch. Otherwise there would be clutch slippage. SO to counter that they add more zinc and phosphorus than they do in automotive oil. It also resisits sheer and heat better better. I believe auto oil is good up to...

You are correct. Exxon Mobil do in fact make Hondas oil.

It says to me that ALL the oils did their job and would protect an engine.

When using Mobil 1 0w30 vs 10w30 you WILL get better gas mileage. Mobil doesnt mkae claims without documnetation. Nobody does in this industry. I drive 3,000 miles a month so as small a gain as it might be its a gain and I have seen an improvement. I tried to change it once thinking it would be...

I dont have a problem with it adn am not starting an arguement fot it. Someone asked above why and this is a reason why. I am just telling you what the Honda Factory reps told us. Everybody knows you will get better gas mileage with a 0w30 than a 10w30. Thats why the Ow30 is called enhanced fuel...

I heard it was 2-3% semi

I use a mobil 1 oil filter and change my oil at 13-15,000 miles. 90% is highway driving though. Of course I did the testing out slowly to get it to 13-15,000.

A monkey with a vis chart could easily eliminate many Mobil 1 products. Lets see 0-40 alone would get rid of 0w20,0w30,5w30,10w30,5w40. Keep the 15w50 for heavy use and keep the racing 0weight and call it a day. I live in Ohio and have bad winters and hot summers. I use 0w40 in my race bike and...

Legally theres no specific definition of what a semi really is. Is it 1% or 90%. If they want to say their Motorcraft oil is a semi then Mobil Drive Clean-mineral based- products would also be as well, by their definition. XOM just doesnt dummy down the products like others.

Honda and Ford did it for CAFE #'s. You will also see upcoming Dodge Heli's coming factory fill with 5W20 as well
