I have been using Rotella 5W40 for years in my cars as well as in FZ-1.
Now it is a time to change oil in my FZ-1 so I went to Wal*mart and
bought a 1 gallon of the oil.

Saturday evening, I lost a friend. He was sideswiped by a truck after he

to give you a heads up in AMS alone. Very nice pictures as well dude.

I think the Buell is now on the back burner.

I have a 1999 Suzuki GS500E. OCCASSIONALLY it seems to bog-down while
