Title: Boring Oil Question
Post by: theglove1978 on 06 March 2014, 07:44:25 pm

Hi All

Sorry for what is no doubt a common question, but as the weather is looking like drying up, i thought i'd give the old girl a service of sorts (the bike that is ;) ).


Has anyone any got any oil type recommendations? There's currently a batch of 10w-40 'Yamalube' in there but handbook info seems to lend itself towards 10w 30?


Much obliged!

I think basically almost everyone uses 10W40 motorbike specific oil.


Although i ran my bike on 10W30 last year & it was fine. (Mistaken purchase)


But ill be sticking 10W40 in this year.




Semi synthetic.
