Oil question... am I crazy?

When I first got my GZ250 I promptly changed the oil to Mobil 1 MC synthetic. A week and a half ago I decided to change the oil again (early to get some winter weight oil in) and went with Shell Rotella-T synthetic. Now, after switching, I could swear my bike has more power. Part of me says its because of the oil, but the other part says that it must be the placebo effect. I mean, I was going down the road at 55 MPH in 4th gear and didn't even know it until I came to a stop light (*click click click* Did it just take 3 downshifts to get into 1st?)!

So... yea, I already know what you're gonna say, but I just had to put this out there.
