Guys, what can be a good substitute for this Oil?
Not that I want to change it, but in case I do not find Shell advance ultra 4 at some local bike shop (not a lot around here.. in Ascot.. horses yes, bikes not...)
Thanks

Failing that I use Silkolene Comp 4, its all I have evre used in the time I have had my 916 I also have it in the 998, I used it in the 916 Strada when I raced it and I also used it in my TL1000S for several years including racing it.

I use Rock Oil or Shell ... 15W/50

Not a lot of difference in oils if you're changing regularly - IMO.

If your sticking to standard service schedules then any fully synthetic engine oil of the right viscosity manufactured by a major oil company will be OK. Stick to a Shell, Castrol, Silkolene etc etc avoid the minor oil blenders.
