...If you change your oil at proper intervals, you can use anything you like as long as it does not contain friction modifyers that would harm the wet clutch. Proper intervals, however, are going to be different for everyone depending upon how, and how often, one rides. If you change it 3 times a year, and don't screw up your clutch, use whatever you like. If you want to race it, you probably have another plan in place already.



Thats about as good advice as one can get. I use Mobil1 and probably don't push the limits of that product. For a few bucks, once a year, what the heck.

I on my 2nd car with over 200,000 miles in four years and run dino oil. No problems. I also run Mobil 1 in my rarely driven '96 Impala SS. Probably a waste of money, but I don't have to change it because of time, so it's worth the extra $20 at change times (only put on a few hundred miles per year).

My neighbor is a Amsoil dealer. I'm tempted to try a change and see if my tranny or clutch are better/worse or the same.
