Maxima oil

[Truckedup]

Anyone have any data facts on Maxima Pro plus 20/50 ? their website does show much, thanks

None of it seems to carry any sort of certification (as is typical with such "racing" oils), so you are at the mercy of the formulator. The information on their website is a lot like the one for Klotz oil which a local gas station is always promoting. That brand has a similar lack of any PDS or data sheets.

Are you racing in this application? I wouldn't think any of their products would be suitable for street use, as they note on their site.

I thought somebody was looking for oil for their Nissan Maxima.

I guy has a gallon of it for sale cheap...I ride the bike about 1000 miles a year, Ducati...Generally speaking, racing oil has less detergents I believe...?

I would have no idea, sorry. I'm kind of a stickler for specifications, if the oil doesn't carry what Ducati specifies for your bike then I'd never use it. I have no idea what Ducati specifies, if anything.

Emissions sticker on the bike says 20/50, sticker on the engine says T4..

I have been using Maxima Pro Plus and Extra in the 10w50 and 15w50 flavors and my Triumph really seems to like it. It is a bit on the pricey end (I buy it when I can get a special deal).

I don't have any "Data Facts" to share, just anecdotal evidence based on how my bikes run and shift: I've tried Maxima Pro Plus oil, and I by far prefer how Motul 300V 4T performs.
