I don't know about you guys, but when I bought mine, I received a 300k mile/lifetime warranty on the engine, as long as I only use quakerstate oil.

Guess what oil I'm going to use?
-Quakerstate

Guess which oil filter I'm going to use?
-OEM Honda


After building racecars for years, it's nice to have a warranty.

Yeah, I'd say so. Last time I looked at royal purple, it was something like $7.50/quart. That's kinda expensive to me for synthetics, especially when other oils are not anywhere near that expensive.

If you're really concerned with premature engine wear, just use a good filter and some good oil. Whatever Honda uses OEM should be good.
