Well guys and girls I am just about embark on buying my 3rd XX after nearly 4 years out of the saddle, can't wait to be honest. Anyway I can't remember which oil and grade to pop in, i know fully synth is out i used to use a Sikolene product but for the life of me can't remember what it was. Any ideas??

Cheers

Iain

Are we taking about 10 40w semi synthetic "motorcycle oil" or any 10 40w semi synthetic like GTX.

Agree, any 10/40w semi gets bought, the cheapest on the day i buy it.

The bird is an old fashioned big grunt engine and not one of these finely tuned screaming moany bitchy bikes that are so delicate that they need a green smoothy and a hug before you ride it.
