Spectrol or Spectro?

I've been running spectro full synthetic for 3 years now, never had a problem. 800R liked it, and so far my XM with the Etec motor likes it as well.

I have been running Spectrol for 2 years now not one problem, its very good oil.

I run Spectro in the 2013 XM and ran it all last year in the 2012 Summit putting 2200 kms on it and no issues. Great lubrication and low ash.

The GearHub was having a sale on it and the price was right for sure.

Rowdy (she is in Calgary) has a bunch that she wants to sell. Doo a search on here.

Spectro Platinum Syn-Sno Powervalve Formula...."this low-pour (-42 degrees F) full synthetic lubricant keeps power valves and exhaust systems deposit-free." Quote right off the brochure.

It is a good oil. Dan Davidoff used that oil and was sponsored by Spectro.

You know what, I don't even know for sure.

Some of his riders (Krazy Saskatchewanians) did and then they switched to some Poos and now they are riding Doos. I don't know what oil they were using.
