[QUOTE="WR 250, post: 141330, member: 17697"] BRush, That was an interesting article. So far I have not read anything that makes me want to switch to high priced motorcycle specific oils. I always just fall back on what I learned from my late college shop teacher, "if it has the API circular symbol on the back then it is a good oil". He didn't feel any reason to spend more money than necessary on oil and in the 9 years of following his advice, I've never had any failures to make me believe he was incorrect. This thinking has shocked some of my friends when they discoved I always bought NAPA oil when it was on sale and now I'm using (gasp) Wal-Mart oil. Last year I pulled the valve covers off my 350 in my truck to change the gaskets. The heads were completely clean, and the engine has over 80,000 miles on it. Last night while changing the tranny oil in my KDX I looked at the manufacturers oil recommendations and didn't see anything that said I should be spending additional money. Anyhow I always change my oil at the most frequent intravels listed and never had a problem. My two cents for whatever it is worth. [/QUOTE]
