Would of thought most semi synths smell much the same as its a blend of mineral and synthetic oils.
Halfords are a massive company and hardly likely to sell rubbish oil and tarnish their reputation.
Must admit I am a Shell Advanced oil man myself, either semi or fully synth depending on what I can find on offer shopping around.I
have purchased Shell Advanced Fully Synthetic cheaper than some places sell Shell Advanced Semi Synthetic.
To be honest it probably makes no difference what make of oil you use as long as it it designed for motorcycle wet clutch use (4T Oil) and you change it regularly. I change mine at the end of every summer season before she goes into hibernation for the winter usually at about 1,500 to 2,000 miles.
Not a good idea storing a bike for months on end with dirty acidic oil in the mill.
