Valvoline 4T Motorcycle oil. Specifically for bikes and bloody good quality. I used to use Valvoline durablend 10/40 in my old GL1100.

Not worth it in 205 anymore mate. No loyalty in the trade anymore, as we talked about when we met.

To those extolling the virtues of Tesco own brand oil......it is all made and bottled by Tetrosyl in Bury. As is Sainsburys oil and most other own brand oils. They make and market the Carlube range of oil.
