You will get at least 28 different answers on what oil to use and at least 100 different reasons why to use a certain type. We use Trade Tec Premium 10w40 Mineral and Trade Tec Premium 10w40 semi synthetic, not mixed together !!. Its as cheap as chips but does the job just fine. We find both are good, the mineral needs changing every 1000 miles, the semi, yearly. It is the frequency of changing the oil that saves these engines. Expensive motorcycle engine specific oil is a waste of money, its just oil companies advertising their wares hoping that motorcycle riding muppets will fall for it.

I don't get why people worry about what oil they should use.
Cheap as chips and change often. they will out last you and I.
Oil in the 70's was crap and they lasted forever.

I agree - I think we all focus too much on different oil makes. Most reputable brands will be fine provided its got the right viscosity

Just to confuse things more my new van has just had its first service at 21000 miles and the manual states that viscosity is not important but quality is.

Straight forward semi synth 10w 40 motorcycle oil for me..... any brand as long as its from a reputable supplier (ie not re packaged spry crisp-n-dry) ;D
