Their v-twin m/c synthetic is heavier; I forget the grade, 20w50 if I had to
guess. This might be better for the Sprint than the lighter MX4T. I'm in a
quandary. I bought MX4T at AutoZone some months ago, and I'm about due for
an oil change. Not sure I want to use it because it's lighter than spec'ed,
and darned sure I don't want to just toss it out.
