    Agip 4T shears a lot

    I believe the 20W50 is a double Ester, it also shows in the price. The 5W40 and 10W60, some say it is PAO base, others say it is Base III. Who knows, looks like it is imported from Italy, so I would like to believe it is a full synthetic. The stay in grade of both the latter two is poor though...

    Which oil(s) show the worst UAO's?

    Depends how you look at it. Long term, if the film holds up, the wear comes from friction with no metal to metal contact. The lower the coefficient of friction, the less wear, provided the film is maintained. So, on a 0W20, compared to a 20W50 6 extra hp for a 1k bike, may mean less wear as well.

    Agip 4T shears a lot

    Hello, I posted and it was suggested that I repost here. I used Agip 4T full synthetic on a Husky enduro bike, as per manufacturers recommendation, 10W60. From my UOA after 1000 miles, it sheared down to a viscosity of 13 cSt at 100C. Also used their 5W40 on a Suzuki Hayabusa, after 1,200...
