Was wondering what types of oil other riders use ?

And if any problems or oils to look out for?

I am coming up on my first oil change after the break-in and was wondering what to use?

Thanks

 

I just shelled out 10 bucks to the local amsoil rep so I could become a "prefered customer" and buy the oil at wholesale prices. I did this only after hearing good things about amsoil from forum members. Until now I have been using Spectro and it works great, its also what the dealer uses. But from now on im gonna be using AMSOIL synthetic 4 stroke oil for wet clutches.

 

I use Suzuki Mineral-based Motorcycle oil 10w40... API certified and VERY VERY VERY cheap... Made for wet-clutches and it's what they put as default in all Suzuki high-performance sport bikes...

2.85 per liter... (Canadian $$) so thats like 2$ US and very good oil, no problems, since it's so cheap you can change it more often [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]

 

Castrol 10/40 GTX

 

the GEARSMOKER uses Kawachem 20w50 synthetic blend for wet clutches. probably don't want to run that weight in the winter though.

 

AMSOIL - I too became a dealer for the cheaper prices. Used to use Honda HP/4. I have been running AMSOIL in all my quads/bikes/car/diesel for a couple years with no problems.

 

I have stock oil in right now, but Amsoil will be in before winter. I don't know how they do it, but I swear everything I have runs smoother with Amsoil. I run it in everything from my 6.0 Powerstroke down to my 4-stroke Honda weed-wacker and love it. This is not a paid advertisement either, I buy it like evryone else.

 

Using Mobil1 15-50 Synth in my Warrior

 

I am the only one hear that uses the factory synthetic oil. I ran two oil changes of mineral based Motul to break in and since have run the factory oil. Also I change the oil every 20hrs.
