Put in synthetic tonite.....

Changed the oil in my '05 Nomad tonite. After much discussion (and a deal for tryin it) we opted for the NAPA synthetic 10-30. While it is at the low end of the recommended viscosities I thought it was worth a try. Bought the bike over a month ago and the original owner wasn't using synthetic. Took her for a shake-down afterward and my brain thought it was running quieter & smoother.........am I dreaming? Is it that noticeable? Also picked up a 2 wire trumpet horn that bolted right on fer $16......claims to be 121 db. Wasnt chrome......less to polish
