i think thats for competition use only, drop the oil after every race meet.

SIN is more like what i was thinking, but i couldnt afford to keep buying it on a regular basis really.

my engine feels and sounds a bit nicer with the castrol edge in it now compared to before.

I agree the Edge works well, the gearchanges are not sticky when hot like some other oils (no names, no pack drill).
But I have to say, with the KMX 20W/50 I cannot feel any difference. Except the price... :lol:
I got pissed off last time I went to buy Edge, the price had gone up about $4 overnight for the S*********`20% off sale'. :lol:
For track days, I'll still use my stocks of Edge 25W/50, but for tootling and thrashing about daily, I cannot tell the difference.

My mechanic and i are really pleased with the HPR30. After 3,000 miles it's still a nice dark honey brown, not a dirty black. Minimal gunk on the sump plug, too. 8)

Some highways ... yeah ... but most likely not driven much in the last year ... so could be cobwebs ... thanks Mick.
