I’m approaching a 1,000+ trip to California in a few weeks as well as my first oil change as the new owner of my machine. Not to start another oil debate, but for some reason searching for previous oil related threads pulls back too much off topic conversations and I’m still not finding what I need.
I live in Oregon, the temperatures are not ridiculous, but this oil will take me into summer where I’m expecting temps in the 70’s – 80’s most of the time. Previously, in my old R6, I ran 10w-30 Motul full synthetic, but I’m reading our bikes can take anything from a non synthetic car oil to fully synthetic expensive oil.
I’d like some recommendations to ensure I’m putting quality oil in my machine while not busting the bank.
Do I go synthetic?
