One thing to make sure is that you buy a specific motorbike oil. Fully synthetic bike oils, infact all bike oils, are different to synthetic car oils. They have different characteristics due to the different requirements. Car engine oils have "friction modifiers" which suit car engines but wreck wet clutches, were as bike oils have properties to ensure they can lubricate the gearbox as well as the engine without de-grading.
Spec for spec bike oils are actually quite basic when compared to car oils, but, bike oils are specific to bikes due to the wet clutch and gearbox lubes.
My advice would be to select the correct viscosity of oil and then buy a major brand such as Shell, Castrol, Silkolene etc. |
