Rick,
Have you used the 15w50 since it got the new packaging? I was thinking about
switching to it this year for my '82 CB900. Also considered Mobil 1 Motorcycle
formula. I really only go about 2000 miles on the bike a year so I probably
don't need synthetic.
There are advantages to synthetic other than extended change interval!
Cold start wear is reduce 50-80%, the engine cranks 25-40% faster and I
have found that timing chain wear rate in Mercedes diesels is halved
with Mobil 1. The stuff just lubricates BETTER!
