Nope. Not Brad-Penn. They are the Kendall oil of old. Kendall oil is not the same ans the old Kendall...that's now Brad-Penn.

It is CITCO per the MSDS sheets.

So if I understand you correctly, you're saying it's either six of one, or half a dozen of another?  :wtf:

  When you put that in your Harley, is it half full or half empty?

This whole thing is half-assed. :hyst:

It`s an oil with a split personality, 50% of the time it`s syn. oil, other 50% it`s dino oil. It`s great for split personality people who can`t decide which to put in their bike.

I hope it`s not like some of the anti freeze you buy that is 50% water in the jug. :potstir:

Harleys new Syn 3 20W-50 is made by Citgo witch is owned by Venezwala AKA Hugo Chavez .. And so is there new Semi Synthetic 20W-50 motor oil .. its over priced for what it is.. Mobil-1 20W50, Redline 20W50, Amsoil 20W50 is a better choice and cheaper too.

the old man gave me some good advice which would prolly apply to this thread, "Son, only believe half of what you see and none of what you hear". these threads can be full of 1/2 assed remarks/smart assed remarks, blblack but they're a damn good bunch of people with a whole wealth of knowledge and offer it up free of charge. hang in there and take it in stride. besides, it's getting really close to winter and the real fun hasn't begun yet. and no, i don't use Harley oil, Syn or otherwise. lol

are you saying every remark is half assed

I'm not sure

believes that
part of the above
might be right

half the time...
