The shear stable formula maintains its viscosity for consistent engine and gear protection, regardless of how hot things get.

The advanced formulation of AMSOIL Synthetic 20W-40 V-Twin Motorcycle Oil is highly resistant to high temperature shear-down and boil-off. The result is a drastic reduction in oil usage compared to other motorcycle oils.

Can You Mix AMSOIL 20W-40 With Other Motorcycle Oils?

AMSOIL Synthetic 20W-40 V-Twin Motorcycle Oil is compatible with all other brands of synthetic, semi-synthetic and petroleum motorcycle oils. While you can safely mix AMSOIL Synthetic Motorcycle Oil with other brands, this will reduce the drain interval and performance capabilities of AMSOIL oil.

The use of any aftermarket oil additives is definitely not recommended.
