Hi
Have been struggling to find a definitive answer.
Could you kind folk please let me know what oil you use in r100 s
Loads of options from Mobil, Motul , Putoline and of course Castro, but wondering what the favourite is.
Many thanks
 
For many years I used Rock Oil Guardian 20/50, on occasions Harley Davidson own brand 20/50 (if I could get it cheap enough), nowadays using Millers 20/50.
 
Some folks like the cheapest, worst performing obsolete oil they can find, and put a big effort in to finding it - others like the best available and dont mind what it costs and like the fact that it is easy to find.
Mobil M1 20/50 Big Twin is well suited to , er, big air cooled twins, Halfrauds probable have some execrable crap if you want to go to the other end of the spectrum - the choice is yours!
 
I'd go for Millers classic oil which should be easily obtainable in your neck of the woods.
/F
 
Many thanks for your replies, have settled on Silkolene Classic, but will look at alternatives once I've run through this.
Have a good weekend
Cheers
