It sounds like it's result on Formula 1 cars, they don't put crappy oil in those
OTOH, results in Formula 1 car are not very likely to be applicable to a $3000 bike. In high performance engines, all other power gains are already taken, so the high performance oil might have measurable effect. On our bike, there is so much of uncorked potential gains, that unless you spend many, many thousand dollars on it, high performance oil will not start moving the needle.
