Recently purchased 01 748... best thing I ever did for myself. Oil is starting to look a bit dark, need to change soon, wondering what I should use. Local dealer says Mobil 4T, but thats 10/40 isnt it? Dont I want 20/50? Mobil has that VTwin stuff, kinda leaning toward that, its 20/50, but dealer said 4T. Somebody shed some light. Thanks all.

I use Amsoil 20W50 Motorcycle Oil in my bikes. Love the stuff. Couldn't believe the first time I used it I could actually feel a difference.

You guys are being awful nice considering this is an "oil" thread.

No doubt. I use a mixture of tar, Vermont maple syrup, kerosene and Guinness in my bike. I top it off whenever I have to take a leak. 27,000 miles and she runs like a champ.

Re: recommended oil?? (KLove)

Olive Oil, it's Italian right?
Most likely any quality synthetic would be a good choice. I am using AMSOIL right now because I had a case of it but I have been told by those that know to use Moble 1, for motorcycles not cars. I change mine more than is recommended just because. Oil is the cheapest thing you can do to keep the internals happy I figure. Fresh clean "Quaity" oil and you can't go wrong.

Oil, Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm I don't get it

Another Amsoil fan here. I've used and been happy with Mobil 1 also. I just had a 600mi service done on my new bike and the dealer put AGIP in. I guess that's cool too; really any goos full synth would make me 'feel good'.

Vermont Maple Syrup is the best. But if you do use Olive oil, make sure its virgin, you don't want the other stuff.
