I have it but have not read it all. It does have specs listed for most
automotive and a lot of mc oils. One it does not have is the Mobil 1 4T
Racing but there is a Mobil 1 15W50. It does provides enough info to say
that most of us won't tell the difference between Amsoil and Mobil 1
products (as well as several others) in how fast the bike goes or how long
it survives. It did show me that the Castrol Syntec that I fell for the
adds on isn't all that great. IMO, if the big guy above wrote the
definitive work on oils, the oil threads would still continue.
