This is not a compromise or some crap oil, in fact it's formulated (for motorcycles) by geniuses at Valvoline/Ashland, a leading producer of oil products.
For God's sake, Valvoline is used in the NASCAR circuit!
The product (apparently in Q:) & its additives far meet & exceed our motorcycles requirements. Today’s oil's are so advanced for our simple air cooled engines that it's almost ridiculous to address this.
Our main concerns should be the effects of the oil on our wet clutch system & weather it contains zinc. I've built/raced a few bikes & believe me, our bikes will not suffer ANY performance or long term damage from said product.
All I care do here is attempt to help others with factual information not to spread BS "rumors" This thread is not titled:
"Who ever doesn’t have problems with Amsoil please respond"
My intention is not to debate (ping pong) but to share my experience/knowledge & inform others of fixes, new products or performance mods that I will stand behind.
I've already been through this two years ago when a few of us had an issue with Amsoil.
While I'm glad (& respect) member "tcv" reports no issues with Amsoil, I attribute my clutch shifting problem to the product.
After not being able to adjust the problem away…it was GONE immediately after a simple oil change back to Mobil Triumph oil.
You can believe it or not!
