should I use synthetic oil in my 750?

Seamus:
What are people generally using. I have some Silkolene 10/40 (possible semi synthetic) for motorcyles, should I use it? or look for something a little less modern like a classic 10/40 from morris or similar.

Thanks

Seamus

Dave M:
I use anything that's reasonable quality. It gets changed every 1000 to 1500 miles so it's not worth paying out too much.

I think the last lot I bought was Tesco's own and it's been fine!

Voxonda:
You can use the full synthetic, but may have the tendency to let the clutch slip! I recommend the 'normal' 10W40 from Castrol or Valvoline, never had any issues with it.
 

Bryanj:
Silkolene Transfleet 10w40 is exactly in the Honda spec if you can get it

Spitfire:
I still use Duckham's 20/50.

Cheers

Den
