Just read the first article, it tells all you need to know about car oils!

I find it is best to just use what your owners manual suggests. Otherwise, you have a thousand choices to decide from, and you really don't know which is best or worst. It's a crap shoot.

NEVER use Pennsoil. I guess they use cheaper additives that are recycled and they don't hold up.

It has been 10 years since my auto machanics days in high school, but I am pretty sure that is what I was told.

Don't know about Suzuki, but Honda doesn't recommend synthetics for its autoclutch bikes. Check your owners manual. I personally would run Honda GN4 in the Ozark.

Whatever you do, don't ride another foot with Penzoil in there!
