Pros: value for money
Car Make It's a motorcycle, silly. Cos it's motorcycle oil. Suzuki SV650 S-K3 if you must know.
"Full 5 litres means you can get two changes out of it rather than the pesky 4 litre packs. Good value per litre too."

"GIven that you can easily pay more for less (4 litres) your oil is superb value and seems to be working a treat on my bike too. The reserve and collect service worked really well and Patricia (spelling?) of the Rickmansworth branch was super efficient. Not only would i recommend the oil but also the service too - top drawer - thank you."

"I found this to be great value, especially as it is a 5 litre bottle where usually you only get 4,; as well as the added bonus of an inspection light!
Staff were very helpful and friendly (as always) at my local store.
Exceptional value, very pleased."

"Pretty much the cheapest around but i like to change the oil often instead of spending more on a branded one and keep it in the engine longer..
Any oil will lose viscosity after a while, so as long as you change it frequently your engine will be protected.
I have used this on all my bikes and never had a problem so far even in my R1"

Pros: 5l for price of 4l from most other brands
Cons: api sl grade? should not be suitable for m/c's?
"Have been using this oil in my various bikes recently and I am pleased with it's value and overall performance. I run an old Honda 250 single which does not have an oil filter so have to change the oil religously every two months. Usually, the oil is quite dirty and fuel smelling. Since using the Halfords oil it still looks quite clean and more pleasent smelling.
My other bikes also seem to run well on this oil with noticeable quieter engine running on my large V twin cruiser.
The main + point is you get 5 litres for the price of similar oils where you only get 4 litres. My only - point is the labelling. It says it meets requirements of SL but I believe SL is not suitable for wet clutch M/C's? I reckon this might be an error? Would be great if Halfords can confirm.
Cheers"

Cons: cannot really think of any
"Reserved online and was ready for me at the store when I went to pick up 30 minutes later. Excellent value compare to more well known brands and I like the fact you get 5 litres instead of the normal 4. Can`t really comment on the performance as its the first time I have used the oil, but checked out all the reviews before buying and everybody seems impressed. The API rating exceeds the recommended level for my Tiger so I think the quality should be good."

Pros: you get 5 litres, easy to pour
Cons: cant think of any
"Have been using this oil for years now. It compares very well with the latest designer label oils.
I have recently rebuilt one of my gsxr engines purely to increase engine capacity. I stripped the whole engine and measured everything against manufactures specifications and found everthing to be well within spec and no need to replace anything although I did change the big end and main bearing shells just as a matter of course while I was there.
Oh and that was on an engine that had covered 40,000 hard miles with the last 33,000 using Halfords oil, must be a good oil to protect the engine like that"

"after using other high priced oils in my beloved bike i thought id give this a try and wow! its been the best oil ive used in a long time. the quality is great my engine feels like its had a transfusion. and the price is great too no problems with oil condensation from short journeys,as i found with others with a high price tag. there are other oils that you can get from the halfords range that im going to try on my next service and looking forward to it.
go out and buy some i reccomend that you do you wont look back."
