I'd like to know you-alls read on this oil. It sounds pretty good, and I'm buying in to the thinner is better game, but Maxima finally released the specs for this oil, it seems mighty thin and I'm having second thoughts about running it in my XC race Raptor. What do you say?

Write-up:
530MX is a 100% Tri-Ester based synthetic oil. Developed on the world’s toughest race circuits, 530MX produces more horsepower, increased torque and excellent clutch feel – there is no better choice for modern MX/Offroad motorcycles. Advanced additives ensure the ultimate in protection for critical engine, transmission and clutch components. High temperature detergents keep your engine running clean and trouble-free, while the ultra shear-stable polymer system maintains constant viscosity – minimizing viscosity loss and clutch fade.
