Oil !!!!

<< < (2/4) > >>

Sesman:
I’ve used this for the last 3k miles and it works fine. I changed the oil at 250 miles for running in, then again at 1500miles before I stored the bike for 8months. No clutch slip and there was no debris in the oil, on the pick up screen or magnetic sump plug. I also dropped the oil pan and clutch cover to see if there was anything lurking, but found the engine to be immaculate internally. The oil was filthy black mind. I have zero oil leaks.

Sesman:
Oh, and it’s £16 for 4 litres at the moment👍👍

Would this be along the same lines, it’s 15w40?

Bryanj:
As long as it does not have "friction modifiers" listed as in it should be fine, look at the SE rating in your handbook and on the can
