OK, OK

Sorry to ask a stupid question.
In retrospect does it really matter?
I will beat the poop out of them (Autozone) till they give me 15% off (so I can be like Scott) and buy 4 or 6 cases.
Lets see, 6 cases X 12 per ='s 72 divided by 4 per ='s 18 divided by 5 bikes ='s 3.something oil changes.
Chit better get 7 cases can't forget about the scooters,  WAIT, their two stoke!

6 cases!

See - that math chit is harder then you might think!  Just buy it - use it - and when its gone - buy more...

Craig and Matha took us to a wine tasting at Childress Vineyards and if you drink enough that stuff kicks my ass butt.

Alright, as if to prove my point, the definitive answers are look at another thread, listen to others who have similar questions and here's what I think....YEOW>..I couldn't buy a funnier script than this.

I have decided to go with:
 1. Mobil 1 Full Syn 15/50 for engine oil. (knew this was a winner) @ $7.95 per quart
 2. Redline MTL               for primary.                                     @ $9.95 per quart
 3. Redline ShockProof Heavy for tranny.                                 @ $10.95 per quart 


Definitive. Informative. Motovational. Workable. Postable. Now we're going places....

How about one more definitive answer?

With 5 bikes at 4 quarts per, where can I buy Mobil 1 and get somewhat of a decent price?

 

By the gallon jugs at Walmart! Besides, I thought you used old KFC fryer oil in yours?

A guy with 5 bikes, shopping for the best price on motor oil is a tight ass where I come from.

How do you think he affords those bikes, cheap oil and lots of Ramen Noodles for dinner!

OK

I've had enough!
I'm going to Walmart.
Mobile 1 20/50! V Twin.

And FYI
Craig, I use KFC oil for the 50cc scooters.
Cam II 110 and KFC oil premixed.
Scooters run great and smells like your at the dragstrip eating a bucket of chicken!

We went to Walmart

No Vtwin mobile 1.

Called AJ from Walmart.

Get this now, AJ said, "Did you go to the motorcycle department in the Walmart?"

Motorcycle Department at Walmart?, What tha hell are you talking about?

"He said, Our Walmart has a motorcycle department, go check there."

I asked "Mike" the helpful Walmart associate, "Do you have a motorcycle department here"

His answer, "No sir, are you kidding with me?"

Off to AutoZone.
To get that price break I bought 24 quarts.
Thanks Talon and Scott!

OK, so maybe it's not a "department" but yes Wal-mart does have an aisle in the auto department that carries motorcycle stuff!  Our carries helmets, gloves, fork bags, glasses, oil, cleaning stuff, and the little LED light kits!  And that is in little bitty Rome, Georgia.  Surely the big-a$$ in Charlotte or over in Concorde on the other side of the race track has one!!

So you did get the V-Twin oil? I wonder if they even have the Mobil V-Twin in the gallon jugs? Most people are only changing one bike, so might be a big call for it.

Chip, like I said, if I couldn't find the V-Twin just down the road, I'd just use the regular Mobil1, there is only a slight difference between the two, and most articles I've read say that it mostly hype, and for the extra money, you not getting that much more. Here's the one article that comes to mind, but I've read several.

You were right Craig!
Nice layout for all oils right up front.
Around the corner in a nonlighted area was the "V-twin" Mobile 1.
Got 24 quart's!
Again, thanks for your help!
