me 2, actully, i just added oil.. didn't change anything. my engine is going to sieze

Spencer75south

i use royal purple motorcycle oil. and a fram oil filter. (i run 3/4 to a full quart over and havent had any problems)

i change my oil every 1,500 to 2K miles and it costs me like $20-25 every time and i just do it myself. Wal-mart dumps it for free too. :YEAH

I think I might be switching to mobil one after reading that article. A buddy of mine has used the stuff for years in his 929 and swears by it. He has around 40,000 mile on his bike and it runs like a champ.

i got 34,000 on my 929 and have always used GN4 10W40, cant go wrong at eight bucks a gallon

So if i read correctly I can run Mobil One car oil in my bike? What everyone says they are similar enough to do it?

nasty6r

i run 20-50 spectrum from a kawasaki dealer which is 16.00 for 4 quarts which, will be enough to do an oil change :YEAH i'm -1 +12 on my 01' 6r and it seems to work just fine. you want the 20-50 because 5-50 is real thin and 10-50 is better, but for stunting use 20 because of the breakdown point or temp, this weight will be a little grogier starting, but offers more consistancy with lubricating when rinning at 12 o'clock temps. it's all about protection against thermal breakdown. :YEAH

KawaChem kawasaki oil.... 3.99 a quart. Thats what they originally put in my bike so I'm gonna stick with it.

Advanced Auto Brand Motorcycle Filters= $1.50 each on special this week--I bought about 10 which= 1 Honda Oil Filter.

Still looking for cheapest motorcycle oil--cheaper the better--sorry but I go the poor man's route-I don't have enough cash to spend over 5 dollars a flippin' quart!!!

i've always ran mobil 1 syn in all the cars since they were new...changed them when the oil light came on or @ 10k....bmw, merc and some others have this standard and recommended in their cars and have 10-15k as the scheduled oil changes...good enough for me....
from now on, i think i'm going to run it in the bikes too, but change at around 3k

Kaotic

LOL

jny

all this time ive been using mobil 1 motorcycle oil. i have to special order it and its crazy expensive. my family owns a garage and a mobil "on the run" and we have cases of reg car mobil 1 in stock that i could have got for free. family discount.

flip3587

i used to run mobil 1 pure synthetic...however with the dealer discount it was still 50 to change my oil (5 quarts and a filter) so i got the honda HP4 10W-40...my bike calls for 3.7L of oil, i always put in 5 quarts..can someone explain the pro's and con's of running too much and is that too much?

kid9765

does anyone know the filter number for a 04 gsxr 1k

Pflepnuts

wix# 51396...im almost positive.(going from memory)

Pflepnuts

you probley dont wanna go more than 1 quart over recomended capacity. If you
do I really dont know what will happen, I believe your oil preasure will get a little high and fu(k with the pump.

I always run about 3/4 to 1 quart over. this will ensure your oil level in your sump is high enough to be reached by the oil pickup at all times.

Yo FooFighters203 ditch those Fram oil filters. That is the absolute worst cheap piece of **** filter you can put on your bike. I've tested em. They restrict oil pressure. They have a huge history of blowing up or coming apart getting cardboard all in your engine. Run the stock filter. Also, i've still got that f4i rat bodywork if you need it.
