:smack:  and most the available synthetics run that or an equivelant compound.  A short list I just found; Castrol Syntec 20W-50, Valvoline VR1, Royal Purple XPR, Red Line, Mobil 1 15W-50 and Amsoil Synthetic Premium Protection

The stuff I run in my bike is around $10 a quart, luckily synthetics for cars can be had for $25-30 for a 5 quart jug, vs about half that for a conventional.  Not sure how much the extra the additive is, but the benefits of synthetic are why I buy it.  Again, you seem pretty set on your decision to use an additive so I'm only trying to offer the alternative view  ;)
RIP KYOTA

You can go through life being scared of the possible, or you can have a little fun and tease the inevitable.

Give a man venison, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to hunt Blacktail, he'll be frustrated for life!
