Thanks for the lesson in advanced. Smart ass here. Going to full synthetic makes shifting smoother, it's more expensive but you can supposedly go farther between oil changes using synthetic and it has a higher temp threshold before break down so the chance of an engine seizing up if you lose all cooling is smaller.

Just read A Study Of Motorcycle Oils (http://www.amsoil.com/products/streetbikes/WhitePaper.aspx) and decide what you want to run.

Thanks for the info ............... Smart A$$. I just got past my breakin and I was thinking about getting that Yamalube out of my bike, but if there would be no advantages then I wasnt going to do it.

Everyone will have there own opinion on what oil to use. Here is the fact, change it regularly, period. That's the key. :fact

Motul 300 V Ester, Quick Change Oil Bolt Valve, Scott's Performance Billet Micronic Filter. Frequent changes, and game over. Rorlow has the same setup, very satisfied.
