[QUOTE="jimicarl, post: 144776, member: 24432"] [b]HOO-AAH![/b] i like dirt bike dave's reply. just like anything else..., keep the oil clean and it'll run forever. regardless of what you're using. i've been using castrol automotive oils (synthetic blend) in my '99 kdx ever since i got it. i'm not at all worried about the clutch. but i am a bit put off by the kdx's notchy shifting. i think the synthetic oil smooths the tranny action a bit. i've read all the stuff in the mag's about not running synthetic crankcase oils in four-strokes, and personally think it's a whole bunch of synthobabble mumbo jumbo for the 99.9% of don't run out bikes anywhere near their limits. triumph recommended mobil-1 for my '95 speed triple. i bought it new and have run full synthetics in it ever since. no tranny problems. no clutch problems. if i were to believe the nay-sayer's ultra-conservative approach on this, you'da thought the thing would've grenaded by now! on the other hand..., an overbuilt under-stressed street motor is a far cry from a yzf426. keep it clean, bud!
