Hi
CB 550 four just finishing a full engine rebuild, which oil should I use.
Mineral , semi synthetic or fully synthetic.
I have read that fully synthetic damages the clutch ?

Johnwebley:
Mineral to run in.


After. The most you need is semi synthetic

I’ve found mineral oil difficult to source,just bought some on  fleabay I’ll likely give in and use semi synthetic in future

Bryanj:
Tesco 10w40 diesel mineral oil, sometimes in store sometimes in garage

Just checked 15w40 is cheaper

Very easy to buy mineral oil 10/40 and 15/40, bought 100 liters a couple of weeks ago  ;)
