AMSOIL Synthetic 20W-50 Motorcycle Oil (MCV) is a premium
oil designed for those who demand the absolute best
lubrication for their motorcycles. AMSOIL MCV is the result
of extensive research and it is specially formulated to
excel in all areas unique to motorcycles, including high temperatures
of air-cooled engines such as Harley-Davidson®
V-Twin, wet-clutch lubrication, extreme-pressure regions
of gears and chains and rust common to short trips
and storage.
AMSOIL MCV is multi-functional and fulfills the requirements
of both domestic and foreign motorcycles. It outperforms
other conventional and synthetic motorcycle oils.
AMSOIL, the leader in synthetic lubrication, produced
the world’s first API-qualified synthetic motor oil in 1972.
Trust the extensive experience of AMSOIL The First in
Synthetics® to do the best job protecting your motorcycle.
Reduces Friction, Heat and Wear
In high heat conditions, engine protection is not sacrificed
with AMSOIL Synthetic Motorcycle Oil. It has the best
high-temperature film strength (see High Temperature
Viscosity Protection graph below) of all oils tested and
contains a heavy treatment of anti-wear additives to reduce
wear regardless of the operating conditions (see Wear
Comparison graph on reverse). AMSOIL MCV is thermally
(heat) stable and contains maximum levels of oxidation
inhibitor additives. It is extremely resistant to breakdown and
engineered to prevent damaging sludge
and carbon deposits for superior engine
cleanliness.
Provides Extreme-
Pressure Quality
Protection for
Gears and Chains
With AMSOIL MCV, there
is no need for separate
transmission or primary
chaincase lubricants. It is absolutely shear stable and
will not thin out from mechanical activity. AMSOIL MCV
performs like a gear lube without the negative effects of
extreme-pressure additives. In the FZG gear test, AMSOIL
MCV achieved a perfect score with a "zero" wear rating
(see photo below).
Delivers Superior Rust Protection
Motorcycles are prone to rust from storage, humidity and
short drives. Rust can cause major damage such as roller
bearing failure, uncontrolled wear, compression loss and
blow-by. Good rust protection, however, comes by design
and is not natural to engine oils. Unlike many motorcycle
oils, AMSOIL MCV contains special anti-rust agents. It
passes the ASTM D-1748 humidity cabinet rust test and
clearly demonstrates superior rust protection (see photo
on reverse).
Provides Excellent Wet-Clutch Performance
AMSOIL Synthetic 20W-50 Motorcycle Oil contains no friction
modifiers and promotes smooth shifting and
positive clutch engagement. It controls heat and prevents
slippage and glazing while its high TBN helps to
improve clutch life by resisting the acids that can degrade
clutch material.
Approvals: AMSOIL MCV is recommended for Harley Davidson®, Buell®, KTM, Ducati®, Aprilia®, BMW®, Triumph® and other motorcycles where 15W-50 or 20W-50 engine oils or SAE 90, GL-1 gear oils are used. Applications: AMSOIL Synthetic 20W-50 Motorcycle Oil is recommended
for air- or liquid-cooled four-stroke engines. It
meets SAE 90, API GL-1 gear oil requirements and is recommended
for transmissions and primary chaincases.
AMSOIL MCV is recommended for Harley-Davidson®,
Buell®, KTM, Ducati®, Aprilia®, BMW®, Triumph® and other
motorcycles where 15W-50 or 20W-50 engine oils or
SAE 90, GL-1 gear oils are used. Not recommended
where an API GL-4 or GL-5 gear oil is required.
