Here is an overview of all oil analyses of this vehicle, where the element concentrations per 1000 kilometres are shown. Some get already after 5000 kilometres or a few operating Hours headache, this car was actually always operated with about 350 operating hours and an oil filling, the engine...

I have noticed that some Honda dealers also fill 10W40. Even if the main bearing clearance as well as the connecting rod bearing absolutely matches a 10W30, a 10W40 could also be a good option. There are good synthetic as well as fully synthetic oils according to German law. 😎 In Germany, oils...

No, it's not a typo. The car is first hand bought from me, as a new car and driven exclusively by me. All maintenance absolutely on time at Honda done and exclusively Honda MTF 3 transmission oil every 120000 km and Mobil 1 0W40 every 20000 kilometres renewed.

The noack is at 11,9%, the Flashpoint is at 230 Celsius. It is a mineral base oil with group 2/3.

You're certainly not entirely wrong about that. I have a magnetic drain plug, there were optically no particles worth seeing. I have already seen some uoa of manual transmissions with much higher element concentration, so I am quite satisfied that mine has failed like this. This analysis also...

Here is a UOA of my Honda Civic 1.8 manual transmission. In this analysis, the fourth transmission filling since mileage 0 is in it, including the new car filling.

Here is another oil analysis of my everyday vehicle. During an oil change, 800ml of used oil remain in the engine and the mobile 1 fs 0W40 was at a VOA at 3ppm. This resulted in an element concentration of 8ppm iron per 20000 kilometres if I roughly overview it. I find this engine absolutely...

Thanks for your answers. My choice of oil falls on the Ravenol Motobike 10W30. https://www.ravenolamerica.com/motorcycle/4-stroke-motorcycle-oil-ravenol-motobike-4-t-ester-10w-30/

This is exactly how it is regulated here in Europe, but the dealer is not obliged to accept delivered engine oil. If the dealer then only works with Honda products, then you have to accept that as a customer. Basically, it is correct that you only have to stick to the specifications, but you...

Unfortunately, I can't do that, only with the use of the original Honda engine oil I can get the 6 year warranty.

Yes, you are right, the oil change interval is 12000 kilometres or one year, whichever comes first. The interval always depends on what you do with the motorcycle and how you drive it. I know someone with a Honda machine who has almost 600000 kilometres on it and says that a service before 20000...

This is my Hornet cb750. I have a quickshifter, sport and style Package und the sc project exhaust in digital silver metallic. Greetings

The only thing that makes me think is that the engine oil is offered as mineral oil. I have some concerns whether it protects well against wear and can keep the engine clean as well as a synthetic one.

I am trying to draw conclusions about the base oil and the groups used on the basis of the IR spectrum.

Does anyone have a recommendation? No one has any idea?
