Oil

I think all of us that use Shell Rotella Synth was all based on one web link that makes it sound like its the best. If anyone can prove there oil works better then any other oil I will buy you a beer and then go buy that oil. Here is the site I refer to. http://calsci.com/motorcycleinfo/Oils1.html ---------------------------------- I will answer any question. It is up to you to figure out if I should have.

Hogboy you won't get to many people arguing against oil.. ;) We all need to use it. As been said in many, many, many threads: Modern oil is ALL GOOD for it's intended purpose As long as it is not the newer energy saving stuff it's good for Connie. The cheep to the expensive..all.. GOOD Just change it... :p evey 2,000 to 8,000 miles But go ahead and start a flaming thread,,, ;p I use Mobil 1, 15~50 synthic.... Change it every 3~4,000 miles with filter.

Some oil is good. No oil is bad. Regularly changed oil is better. Obama is a hack. How's that for angst, Hogboy?
 
I prefer extra-virgin olive oil. Uh! Oh! you mean motor oil? Ya I got some. ;p I'm using Mobil 1 MX4T synth 10W40 vintage. :) Patrick Ride safe. 1998 Kawasaki Concours Windsor Green COG# 7292 CDA# 0135
 
Castrol 10/40 MC oil for me every 4K or so. I only use it as it gives me an excuse to go to the local Cycle Gear store every now and then! They usually have a $5 coupon in their flier so the price is right and that little Wee Strom motor takes less than 3 quarts to boot! Roger COG 5903 Virginia Beach, VA
