Default Why not to use Yamalube

Just bought an 03 Viper Mountain and the previous owner swore by Yamalube here is what the Power Valves looked like today when i cleaned them. He supposedly cleaned them once a year. Think ill be checking out Amsoil or Legend

Looks really rich. I have always had good luck with Yamalube. I am a big fan of Redline, but you really need to clean powervalves every year no matter what oil you use.
