Sometimes facts are totally misconctrued or toatally reversed at some points of time or another...like once....once milk/dairy products/lactose/maltose, was good for mending ulcers, now it has been concluded as the worst thing....later on, they may change their minds again, probably based on a cash-cow.

Obviously, your question is for 4 stroke oils, not two stroke, because the Yamalube 2S is a very good quality two stroke oil that is almost one third the cost of the best quality Amsoils.

Yep 2 stroke, I thought 2 strokes were being phased out here in Kaynuduh and Europe....they got this eco thingy....mine (Majesty 400) even has a catalytic converter...hope it doesn't get too contagious in Americas... -- Triad Productions-Fantalla�~EZine~ParaNovel National Astrophysical Assault Research http://lacasse.naar.be http://ammo.at/lacasse

Yep 4 stroke, I thought 2 strokes were slowly being phased out here in Kaynuduh and Europe....they got this eco thingy....mine (Majesty 400) even has a catalytic converter...hope it doesn't get too contagious in Americas... Streets and 2 stroke are phasing out but dirt bikes are a still a big exception... -- Triad Productions-Fantalla�~EZine~ParaNovel National Astrophysical Assault Research http://lacasse.naar.be http://ammo.at/lacasse

Although that is a valuable test, it's not really indicative of the conditions inside a motorcycle engine, which includes things like pollution due to combustion and the forcing of external air through the engine. In other words, there will be some additional chemistry and "grit" in a real engine. RR |
