Quart jugs only. In the motorcycle section of the store's oil aisle.

Well, it's a semi synthetic (less $), and should probably be changed at more like a 3,000 mile interval, and not go 5,000 miles. Lots of 993 track guys run BP, and change out after every DE/Race weekend.

Again, V-Twin is the better choice.

V-Twin I believe is only sold in Qts. Motorcycle oil so go figure.

It is on Sale at O'reilly Auto Parts through the 24th of May for $8.99 / Qt.

At least in the Pacific Northwest area.

And there be the reason we stocked up when the loonie was par. $18 a litre up here and never on sale.
