OILS AINT OILS?

[jamie2548]

Just wondering what oils you all are running. Previous owner(carer) to my...um I mean (the wifes ) bike used a brand that is way up the scale of what I can get and afford down here so I was going to use MOTUL 10W-40. I know they say Shell but I hate Shell fuel so I dont wanna go the oil 
Can anyone advise if this one would be ok?

Motul is fine!! Been using it now for 2-3 years since the Shell got stupidly expensive in bike shops and maybe as a result harder to get!? 

There is an oil thread here somewhere in the Oz Monsters site with a lot of options that people are using/used!

I run cold pressed extra virgin olive oil. It's an Italian bike, after all.

I prefer a nice Swedish massage oil tempered to 2-3 degrees above body temp.
Paul has never complained.

But when he is not around I run Silkolene

By now Jamie you should be starting to see and comprehend the general lunacy and irreverant attitude of the miscreants of the OZ Monster section of the esteemed DMF!?

from experience motul is ok but still fairly expensive

I bought the penrite the other day when supercheap had 20% off so was about $36 for 5 litres full synth
which meets motorcycle spec
