what happened to Quicksilver 20W50 synthetic Motorcycle Oil, 1 gal

The stuff was cheap but never found it . The last I heard about this stuff is azhule buying up the remaining stock at all the Walmarts (hmm I wonder ...sneaky... )

Can't find it locally any more. I remember seeing it at Walmart but not any more.

Google search gives no joy. Seen threads from 14' and 15' on sites but nothing recent.

Does anybody know if this is available. How bout auto parts stores? I think it's been discontinued

I wasn't "buying them all up" back then... I figured they had plenty to go around... but if they truly are "the last unicorns" you better believe I will buy any I find

Sure sure, it's a conspiracy

Seriously, I want to try a 20/50 oil to feel the difference from the Rotella syn.

My local Wal Mart has it on the shelf. I didn't even look at the price I just went straight to the Rotella

Well I stopped by and looked around a few of the "local oil spot(s)"... only seen 3 unicorns on the shelf at one store... so I asked around for a manager at that store... and was told... "These are the last 3 in the store and I don't see us getting any more anytime soon"... so I bought all 3 ...

Sooooo... I have 2 gallons for me, and * 1 for BlackBike *

* "Fine Print" (valid on any 'local pickup order' only ) *

I guess I need to hit Wal-Mart and grab a few gallons.

Never heard of it, I thought Quicksilver only did boat stuff. Walmarts around me carry the boat oils, but no bike oils. Walmart stock is totally regional, I guess they don't think there's enough motorcycles in SoCal, but they do carry ice scrapers in the automotive isle....
