Curious if you like synthetic, semi synthetic (like the 2 stroke oil I use for the dirt bike), or plain old petroleum?
Leaning toward synthetic. The cost is so minimal compared to my 7 quart truck.

This parts whore is crying! All those beautiful parts - and for why? There are starving children in Ethiopia that could use those parts! God help us. I hope there wasn't a GS500 in there.
Keep it up and I'll ban you for 11 minutes!

Well for a kwaka I would say a litre of dark coloured urine and the rest, used 2 stroke diesel oil

They make 2 stroke diesels? :dunno_black:
Are you serious? 2 stroke diesel aka Detroit diesels.
In all seriousness though if you want a good oil use Mobil 1 for bikes for your kwaka.
If you were here in Australia I would recommend you use Penrite Ten Tenths fully synthetic.

While it is primarily a car oil it clearly states on the back it can be used in four stroke motorcycles with a wet clutch. It is about $20 - $30 cheaper than a fully synthetic motorcycle oil and comes in 5 liters not 4. It is what I run in my Ducati Monster.
What your not using shell? Sacrilege!!!!

Early Detroit diesels! .... And some of the GM diesels from the mid 60's roughly .... But you know in the older movies ... The older style greyhound buses.... With that particular revving shrieky noise on take off?? ... 2 stroke diesel power boyo... Usually a Detroit in the US...
Noisy bloody things though... Had a ride in a truck with a 2 stroke 275hp motor .. When I was a lad... Earplugs were more or less mandatory! :thumb:
V16 n/a 765e gm 2 stroke is what I cut my teeth on
:D :thumb: .... That one of the naval generator donks?
Railway loco also turbo v12 675. And turbo v12 710. Even a turbo v16 675 e
I put amsoil synthetic into it last oil change. It was given to me. I think I'll go with mobil 1 synthetic. I imagine it is similar to what was in there.
z1000, the 'naked tame ninja'. rode one last night. really nice bike. really nice. can't imagine caring what oil was in it, so long as it handles that good, with that much smooooooth power.
oh, ok, back to oil. yes, whatever is on the shelf, when you change it. that'll do.
got pics ?
What are you people talking about!? That motorcycle is beautiful!! I wish I had one. And if I were you I would definitely put synthetic in that beast like you are planning on doing.
Thing is the japs are so focused on each other they are making the exact same thing trying to match each other.

Truth.

When i got my gsxr, it had synthetic. I've kept mobil1 synthetic in it. Seems fine to me and you can buy the stuff at advance auto parts. I would recommend it.
Mobile 1 Racing 4t, synthetic FTW!

Not quite as we'll as Mobil 1

lol ! whatever. i'm sure you can find a graph that says "ZOMG ! royal pink and green synthetic spinergy PLUS PRO RACE Edition SPECIAL is 5x better than 10w30!!!" yep, the graphs don't lie. meanwhile, people are riding for 100,000+ miles with zero issues whatsoever related to using plain old car oil.
i swear if SPACE SHUTTLE OIL was for sale, someone would buy it for their $800 gs, ninja, 4wheeler, whatever and claim all others inferior.
True, every oil is practically the same. But synthetic does have additives that help it last longer and promote long lasting engines. It has to do with how well it does changing temperatures over and over again.
They have SPACE SHUTTLE OIL !?!?!!?!? .... Gimme gimme gimme!!!! :woohoo:
Need it for my 4stroke lawn mower!!! .... Gonna make it a hover unit!!... Reckon Space Shuttle Oil will do that!!!!
I notice you said "if they sold IT" ... Not "IF it existed" ... So I'm assuming it exists and they DON'T sell it!!!! ....
Why!?!?!?!?! .... I WANT Space Shuttle Oil!! ... Make them sell it to me!!!
Now now now now now!!! Gimme gimme gimme!!!! :woohoo:
I don't need a graph to tell you. :2guns: :2guns:

For the record, I use synthetic in my bike and truck. I also happen to use Royal Purple in both also
Kwaka?
Do they make oils that fix CCT's and kwaka tick?
I don't think they do. They do make Honda's and Suzuki's though...
