what kind of oil are you guys and gals using in your bikes?

Castrol Syntec.

No issues at all and it sounds much quieter with the synthetic.

I'm with Grumpy-Rotella T6 5-40. It's oily!

10w30 full syn for the winter, 10w40 full syn in the summer.

I'm interested in the Rotella 5w40 full syn for my summer weight, sounds oily!

Just be sure it doesn't say 'energy conserving' because of the wet clutch.

Oh yeah, this is the most important!! I only buy motorcycle oil for my motorcycle. That's even more important than synthetic or whatever you choose to use.

I heard that stuff was great to use for bikes with plenty of miles. I think I'll try it on my next oil change.
