Just Average

"Had the same poor experience with this oil as another reviewer. Used it once, my car developed a nasty case of lifter tick that went away with a different oil."

No issues

Date:July 4, 2010

"No issues with this oil.

Approximately 70,000 KM I switched over to synthetic oil on my 2005 Pontiac Pursuit. I noticed a huge difference in my engines performance, and the quality of oil appears to meet my standards.

This oil is a steal when it's on sale. I would compare it to Castrol Synthetic."

Great Value for the Money

Date:April 23, 2009

"I run Formula 1 Synthetic 5W-20 in 2 Fords and a Mitsubishi Eclipse. I usually buy the oil on sale at around $20/Jug.... Best value around for a True synthetic base oil manufactured by Shell Canada (Check Can. Tire's Web site: http://msds.canadiantire.ca/search.asp and enter the product code 28-8712).
This oil is basically the same as Pennzoil Platinum at a greatly reduced price !! I normally run the oil for 7500 Kms between oil changes and have had no issues over a significant number of years service."

Awsome

Date:December 1, 2008

"Guys I never believed on Canadian Tire products until I bought my Accord and I was not able to find 5w20 from Castrol or Mobil.
It worked awesome, my gas consumption went down and my accelerator become so light and engine got much quieter. I think they buy the stuff from Esso. Worth trying if bought on sale cost less then the convention oil"

10K Easily Capable

Date:September 9, 2008

"This oil seems great with excellent flow, noticeable difference in fuel consumption, and it comes out after 10,000 km looking like it did when it first got poured into the motor. Slight difference but honestly it stays super clean with a QS filter the entire interval. Reguraly achieves 38 plus mpg up to 50mpg on some trips in a 2.0L SOHC split port motor"

Gets the job done if you want to use Synthetic

Date:May 22, 2008

"This is a good mid performance synthetic oil. I've been running Amsoil and recently became a Dealer as there is no comparison! I still run F1 oil along with Quaker State in my small engine equipment, but never again in my vehicles."

Amazing Difference

Date:May 12, 2008

"I used to use just conventional oil in my 1996 Sentra, at 105,000 i switched to synthetic with Formula1. The difference was almost immediate. Before the day was out I noticed my engine idled better, and revved easier. I highly recommend this oil!"

not good

Date:March 24, 2008

"Have never trusted Motomaster Formula 1 since 20 years ago I saw a guy bring unopened bottles of Formula 1 conventional oil back to the store because he found a thick coat of some kind of thick white gel residue on the bottom of the containers. 2 years ago I figured I would give Motomaster Formula 1 Synthetic a try, thinking one synthetic must be as good as another after I had tried most of the other brands and I could save a few bucks on this one. Boy was I wrong. After installing the oil and and driving for a few weeks and then leaving the car for two weeks I started it and there was a camshaft knock that I had never heard. I dumped the oil and installed Castrol Syntec and the problem never reoccured even after the car was left for 2 months of not starting. Sorry Canadian Tire but I will never in my life buy Formula 1 again."

Answer:

MotoMaster Formula 1 Synthetic motor oil is not suitable for motorcycles with a wet clutch. F1 has friction modifiers but other additives may cause your wet clutch to slip. Please use motorcycle oil in the grade advised in your owner’s manual.

Here are a few products we carry (conventional oil)
028-1826-6 Castrol Motorcycle Oil, 20W50, 4-Stroke, 1L
028-1827-4 Castrol Motorcycle Oil, 10W40, 4-Stroke, 1L

For synthetic motorcycle oil you can use:
028-1779-8 Amsoil 20W50 946ml
028-1780-2 Amsoil 10W40 946ml
Or
028-1800-6 Mobil1 20W50 1L
028-1801-4 Mobil1 10W40 1L
