Well, i just got back from walmart and i bought some oil. I bought some Mobil 1 Racing T Fully Synthetic 10W-40 4 Cycle Motocycle Oil ( lol for the long name). And i was wondering if this will be a good one to use? I bought it cause it was a fully synthetic oil and the only good one i saw at walmart. Should/can i use it? I plan on using some amsoil in the future though. Im just gunna use this for the mean time. So yeah can i use this?

Heres a pic of what it looks like...

I don't know about that oil, but I know many people run Shell Rotella T synthetic in their cycles. I run it in everything I own, and it's available at the walmart in my town. Price wise isn't all that bad either -- $16 a gallon.

Well has anyone used the one i have? I dont wanna use it until i know that i can use it.

I read the whole entire bottle and it doesnt say moly anywhere. Doesnt say friction madifier anywhere either...

it does run hot, i would get the 20w-50 jus to cool her down a tad.
does ur runs cooler now?

i would use it brah. it couldnt hurt nething. if u rele need to, call ur nearest honda store and ask them wat they think. unless theyre *******s and want u run the honda oil crap.
