What do you need such a heavy oil...did uncle Tony clearance your bearings for you?

I love the VR-1 20-50 I don’t care how heavy it is.

Made a copy of the Amazon ad, I'll take to Oreillys and see if they will match it......

I sold a lot of 60 to little Harley shops, they loved that stuff. I gave away more to fuel racers.

Yes, 60w in older Harleys is pretty common

Just trying to help fellow members save a buck......

Could always thin it down with a lighter grade and create your own blend

50w price is now much more

A couple of the shops really loved this stuff, too, long since discontinued. It was called grade 70, not SAE 70, because it was heavier than what SAE defined as SAE 60, but they didn't define specs for a 70 weight engine oil.

doesnt work that way

 

[Bewy]

It works this way: 20/50 pours like 20/30 or 20/40 on a cold day. At 100*C, 20/50 pours like 50 & 20/30 pours like 30.
I use 10w/60 in my engines & recommend it for engines I build. I live in a hot climate & this oil gives the best protection at both extremes. The same company [ Penrite ] makes a 30/70 oil for worn engines.

What 10w/60 do you use? Trying to find one that has high zinc.

 

[Bewy]

It is made by Penrite, an Australian company, who do sell in the USA, but I do not know where. They also make a 5/50. All of their oils have high Zinc content.

Penrite HPR-30.. Very hard to beat IMO.

 

[Bewy]

Yup!
