Let's get the fun started. Who uses what oil, and why? Good results/bad results. Does anyone else like to experiment with changing oil brands/types/weights, or is it just me? Synthetic or dino? Any takers...
Good stuff. You may want to try HP-4M semi-synthetic from Honda. I've used it in the past with great results...Honda GN-4 works great for me.
Agreed.Most of us have spent THOUSANDS on our bikes. For approx. $25.00 (assuming you do it yourself) an oil and filter change is the BEST way to ensure engine longevity. The more often the better. Regardless of what you prefer, synth or dino, all the experts agree on one thing: How often is FAR MORE critical than what type. (Before anyone comments, yes I am aware that we need to use MOTORCYCLE oil with enough friction for the wet clutch). When I was street exclusive it was every 1K miles, oil and filter. On the track, every other track day. For $25 it's the best insurance for the cheapest cost...
