Seriously, that's a good idea! However, can the MB-Shop server withstand the usage?

Dunno, but I bet we won't find any volunteers to moderate it!

How about an oil FAQ page

With no implied or unimplied warranties.

I am not volunteering to write it.

I've been running sewing machine oil lately and have really been happy with it.

Thumbs up Oil Right, I switched!

Switched to Amsoil 10W-40 in my ZX-11 @ 18,000 miles...

No kidding, it really shifts like a dream now! An actual, seat-of-the-pants, immediate & notable improvement! I can't swear that it rev's more freely or has increased power, but it is running very smoothly...

...and it SURE SHIFTS SUPERBLY!!!!

And I just love it!
