ic. But isn't those 15W40, 15W50 and 10W40 hav higher API like API SL? So far i know those 20W50 EO with API SF/SG, others usually are SL/SH. But, Silkolene Super 4 and Valvoline® 4-Stroke Motorcycle Oil have 10W-40 and they are API SF/SG but it's quite difficult to find these 2.

yesterday noobboy and I have a TT session, he did mention bout u

o, next time i have to look at those shopping mall to get good deals like u.

Some details of the royal purple:

Royal Purple’s API-licensed Synthetic Motor Oil combines premium base oils with proprietary additive technologies to create high performance motor oils that optimize engine performance. Royal Purple’s API-licensed motor oil delivers superior protection and improves performance in gasoline and diesel engines. Royal Purple’s API-licensed SN motor oil meets ILSAC GF-5 and Dexos1 performance requirements.

No special procedures are necessary when upgrading to Royal Purple. Royal Purple recommends waiting until the manufacturer’s first scheduled oil change in new gasoline and diesel engines before upgrading to Royal Purple.

Royal Purple motor oil is compatible with synthetic and conventional motor oils.

Performance Advantages:
Better wear protection--Enhanced additive technology prevents metal-to-metal contact beyond both Dexos1 and ILSAC GF-5 specs.
Increased fuel efficiency--A low coefficient of friction results in optimized fuel efficiency (the fuel economy of Royal Purple's 5W-30 meets the fuel economy requirements of a 5W-20 oil).
Better protection of the expensive catalytic emission system--Patented ZDDP additives optimize emissions catalyst system life.
Improved compatibility with fuels containing ethanol--Patented additive technology prevents the white sludge and lubrication starvation that can occur with 20% or higher ethanol fuel.
Superior corrosion protection--No rust observed in standard industry testing.

the seller claimed that the oil can go up to 5000km

One of the RP user review(this guys use the oil up to 7600km), crazy:

ya, totally agree with u. actually i'm not so agree with those who change their EO in 1000km or 1500km unless the oil is not good. If the EO is good enough, we dont have to change that frequent. Besides, frequent changing EO will harm the natural environment(i read from somewhere).

Ya, the oil and tyre for our bikes is almost equal/more expensive compare to car especially the tyre. The car tyre Goodyear 185/xx/14 for my iswara goes for rm155 only, i guess my rear tyre Maxxis 110/70/17 is not cheap tho.

ya, i'll go for silkolene also because it is still in the range API SF/SG gona go to look for it! I'll check at the spare part shops 1st, if i cant get it then i'll go to the Kawasaki at Taman Pertama(Cheras).

bro melvin, how much u bought your Pro 4?

This post has been edited by ken_ng: Dec 19 2012, 11:08 AM

o, may b if i use same eo with u, then we can share share? then u dont have to take out a bunch of $ in order to get a cheaper price.

This post has been edited by ken_ng: Dec 19 2012, 11:43 AM

if i couldn't find a silkolene, can u sell me one? hehe

yaya, that's y i meantioned i'll stick to silkolene coz it's SF/SG thanks for the confirmation again.

oh oh..thanks for remind. paiseh ya.

but the price difference is really huge between 12 and 24 bottles like u said.

dear all bros, i need your opinions on eo/bike:
1) let's say after i changed my eo, and i found that the gear shifting is not good after i've run around 100km(or may b less than that). Is it too early to judge the eo not fits my bike?
2) or is it i have to run few hundred km 1st so that my engine is used to the eo only then i make a judgement?
3) or is it i will know whether the eo fits my bike or not after may be 50-100km(or may b less than that)?

thanks in advance.

ic. that means dont have to run till a certain mileage only can make judgement. really learnt alot here.

My shifting is getting worse day by day. Now after i've shift to N and the cluth engaged, it's difficult to shift to 1st gear. i have to press the shift pedal a few times to shift to 1st gear or i have to release the cluth 1st and then press again and shift to 1st gear.

haiz, i hope i can change the eo to a new one as soon as i can do it.

ya, before change eo is ok but it's terrible after change to castol activ. I'm so desperate to change the eo now.

bout the gear shifting from high gear to low gear, it's true from what u said. so usually i'll try not to shift down during my ride, i'll only shift down when i'm near to stop. The 1, 2 and N is really rough for my case, they are not smooth at all.

ya, i feel that my RG gear shifting is much much better. Besides, i never be specified in my eo last time when i'm using RG. So it seems like RG is running in all kinds of eo

i plan to get Silkolene Super 4(API SF/SG & JASO MA/MA2). There are 10W40 and 20W50 from their website, so i think i'm going for 10W40. But if i couldn't find it then i think i'll go for Motul 3000 20W50(API SG & JASO MA). Motul other viscocity will have higher API, so i think i wont take any eo which is not SF/SG. Any recommendation from you?

ic. i'll try to find the eo visco 40 with API SG. Actually i went to a few spare part shops(car) but they didn't sell motorcycle eo. Bike spare part shop is more difficult to find than the cars spare part shops. I gonna ask noobboy to give me some directions.

thanks alex.

oh ya hor, i can go to sentul to find. Hope they are selling genuine oil.
