What's the best oil to use????

[crazy_mooh]

I searched a lot I found different kind, but still I don't know with which one should I go. About the bike it's 2004 Busa PC2, TRE, full muzzy exhaust, and BMC filter. I ride it almost everyday and I drag race it every-other weekend. So, which is the best oil to go with????

I used mobile 1 mx4t until i couldnt find it in the original formula so at 37k i switched to amsoil 10w40 for motorcycles. love it.

+1 Amsoil

use whatever oil you like but I would suggest you think about increasing the frequency of oil changes. Also, make sure you don't run with a low oil level.

I use mobile mx4t synthetic. I can get it easy here and its expensive enough so I think its good.

I use Amsoil 10/40 since my 2nd oil change @ 2500 miles. I started drag racing my 08 last year and changed to the amsoil at the start of the season and just going by the color of the oil, I didnt have to change it untill racing season was over. I had 1500 miles and nearly 100 runs on it and the oil looked just as clean as the day I put it in.

i switched to amsoil and my bike didnt seem to run as good so i switched back to castol now im thinking bout going to mobile 1

MX4t is now called Mobil 1 Racing 4T Same oil different label.

From M1 website FAQ

Why did you change the name of Mobil 1 MX4T 10W-40 to Mobil 1 Racing 4T 10W-40? Is the product formulation different?

Mobil 1 MX4T 10W-40 was renamed because the product is known as Mobil 1 Racing 4T 10W-40 outside the US. Be assured that no changes to the Mobil 1 MX4T 10W-40 formulation occurred during this name change. Same great product, new name.

my expensive motor gets motul 300v because i didn't skimp anywhere else, and i'm not going to do it with the oil . my stock motor 1000 and other vehicles get mobile 1. i put a TON of passes on my swb 1000, and i've seen great clutch life!

i think most people would benefit from more frequent oil changes as opposed to spending big bucks on the oil itself.

heck i started using this stuff, figured same color so why not.
