Isn't Pennzoil the same as Quaker State? There can only be so many labs making this stuff.

I used to always like the yellow bottle. Not anymore.I guess i Trust Mobil but who's to say it's not labeled by the same guys as Pennzoil?

Like Honda actually makes there own oil or Yamaha or kawi.

suzuki has a brand specific oil out there.... The only place I've seen it is ASK though.

You want to stay away from the energy saving or friction reducing car oils in a bike. From what I understand they are not good on the wet clutches. Sticking with oils made for motorcycles and the manufactures weight(example 10-40W) is a good bet. Keeping your oil changed also is a good thing. That is what my mom tells me.

Iron Pony carries suzuki oil, along with honda, kawi, and yamaha brand oils for those looking for dealer specific lubricants.
