Buster, if you spend $30-50 for a Blackstone Labs Virgin Oil Analysis you will be the first one on this list to ever do so.
Most of us just type "bobistheoilguy.com: VOA Lucas 20w50" into your Google search bar and get it for free. Search turns up the data and an oil war, but this nugget is what pops up as item #1 from the Google search.
Motor Oil Wear Test Results – Caution, VERY long • Speed Talk
3 days ago ... do a voa on lucas oils and see for yourself the lame additive package this oil has! ! go to
www.bobistheoilguy.com .... Penn, although its hard to tell because I run 20w50 or straight 50 and you didn't test much of that weight.
www.speedtalk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=30483...15We got some people saying Lucas synthetic isn't really synthetic at all and all of them say it is a so-so oil packaged with some overblown claims.
Now, if this rankles your feathers some, feel free to go find some bad dirt on Klotz or Amisol or Rotella.
Or trot out some third party supporting evidence that Lucas is a superior oil.
Just remember to always say where you got it from so we can go read it directly.Here is a quick link to the motorcycle oil tests just to get you started good.
