Amsoil does I think... I'm not going to race (this bike is a cruiser) so I don't need super protection, still I think this will give me more protection than 10w40 conventional. -Curt --- On Wed, 9/10/08, Rolf <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: From: Rolf <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: [MBZ] OT: Motorcycle oil To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], "Mercedes Discussion List" <mercedes@okiebenz.com> Date: Wednesday, September 10, 2008, 5:29 PM All the WERA guys racing SV650's are using 15w40.

I'm gonna fill it with Mobil 1 5w40 "Turbo Diesel Truck". LT Don's been using 15w50 in his. I figure the TDT is at least as good as the 10w40 I've been using and possibly better. Its not an "energy conserving" labeled oil so I *shouldn't* (scary word) have trouble with the bike's wet clutch. If this works out my Honda will get the same treatment at the next change and I'll only stock 2 oils (5w40 for the cars and motorcycles, 10w30 for the pickup and small equipment, tractor, snowblower, etc) instead of 3. > Need to find the regional distributor for Mobil 1 and see about a volume discount. I buy 30 or so quarts a year... The guy at Autozone looks at me like I'm crazy when I ask for a discount. One of these times I need to get ugly about it.
