everyone has their own opinions. There is no BEST oil out there. alot of people like the shell rotella T 15w40, the non synthetic can be used in both sides from what ive heard. I personally use the Elf 10w50 full synthetic in both sides and love it. ive also used Belray Thumper 20w50 in both sides and that was great as well

the absolute best oil is CLEAN oil!!!! put in a oil that you can afford to change after every ride. if you can afford hp4 at $10 a quart then great (I cant afford to do that) I run clean new rotella every ride!!!
