Default longtime amsoil customer, switched from amsoil to rotella t6 and totally impressed!

the last couple years i was totally sold on, and would only use amsoil 10/40 and a wix filter for around 55-65 bucks every oil change. like others on here, ive switched to rotella t6 synthetic and a purolator pure one filter and my bike shifts and runs noticably better now with the rotella in it. also i spent less than 30 dollars on it! just wanted to post to help others save money if they are thinking of switching from over priced synthetic oil to rotella t6. its well worth it in my experiance.

I am also a long time Amsoil user and keep hearing things about Rotella. I may have to give it a try.

Rotella t-6 and triple protection 15w-40 (dyno oil) are both great stuff. Bike runs and shifts sooo smooth. I've run them both and noticed it seems to break down faster than a more expensive synthetic but at $20 a GAL it's easy to do changes whenever you want.

Great! Now this comes up. I just filled up with a gallon of amsoil the other day (well almost a gallon). Got it for a decent price (I thought)of $48 shipped. I had read a bunch of reviews on how great amsoil is. Well, as far as breakdown it should be a lot better than the shell. I was just using the honda stuff before.

as i stated its only about my experiance, how much i like rotella, purolator pure one filters and how much money can be saved. this not a debate. respectfully, debate off my thread.

ive already read and studyed to my own satisfaction about oil and filters in the past on other sites and there are a ton of threads available on the search feature on this site for all to look up.

thanks

Anyone know if you can get purolator pure one filters for an F4 in Ontario? Doing a quick search but i'm thinking not available up here? I even searched the Purolator website application page and they have no listing for an F4. Any suggestions on another filter option I have always just used an OEM filter.
Thanks
