I use rotella t 15-40 in all my bikes. Have for a long time with no ill effects. It's cheap too @ $12 a gallon

Really? Rotella T? Diesel Oil? Like this? (available here in Canada)

If that is the case, that is like half price from any other "bike" oil from the bikeshop... :hmmm: So for my DRZ400SM, that would do the trick???

I use Motul semi synthetic because I have to change the oil all the time.

Oh god, here we go.

I recommend the oily slippery kind of oil.

But I run Amsoil in everything I own.

I think you like baby oil the most.

Amsoil 10w40 works great. Drzs aren't real picky cuz they aren't "hot" motors power wise. I got over 300 hours clocked on a 2006 husky 510 and amsoil is all I use ever...whatever you buy make sure it is NOT saying energy conservation or conserves resources on the back, as these lack some important additives for our style motors. I even mix amsoil 2 stroke oil @ 150:1 in my husky every other fill up for the rings. Maybe I'm nuts but 300 hours is a lot and the internals of my motor look great

Rotella T. Diesel oil. Used it in 5 different bikes now. Cheap as hell, I change my oil every couple hundred miles and wont break the bank.
