Check out my oil filter forensics thread! Offended? Click here"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the air—these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

I've mainly been using Shell Rotella 5W-40 for a long time although I occasionally use Mobil 4T 10W-40. I think (think is defined in my case as no basis in actual documented fact) that the Mobil may be better oil but not enough to make an appreciable difference or for the motor to know the difference.

Rotella T6 is JASO-MA2, but I would not want to use a 5w in a Ducati. I've tried it in my older SS but it shifted hard. |
