Cool bike ...

But so is M1 5w40 turbo diesel oil. Just curious.

Does the T6 5w40 flavor meet any SL/SM/SN API ratings? I don't see that anywhere..

T6 is a full syn oil. T5 is a blend and T4 is petroleum.

Local Walmart has 5w40 T6 at $23.48/ga and SuperTech 10w40 full syn m/c oil at $8.72/qt. I'd still go with the ST...

Yup ... >40*, dry and no salt in southern WI. It's 13* now, so no :)

Although Shell says T4/T6 meets JASO MA/MA2 specs, for my SE6 Can Am Spyder, it doesn't meet BRP specs. Not really a concern unless someone is worried about warranty issues, XPS Recommended Engine Oil 4T5W40 Synthetic blend oil. If the Recommended XPS Product is not Available, Use a 5W40...

Not a Grom, but close with a Benelli TNT135. I rode it for two seasons (750 miles). Sold it to get a small bike that would do 60 mph up a hill (KTM 390 Duke). A buddy said I looked like a circus bear on a bicycle :) Ha

Found this interesting. That said, I've been using Seafoam for many years without issue.

I just played it safe and went with a good old Yuasa AGM. Thanks for the replies.

Yes

Hey all, I have a 2019 Can-Am Spyder F3S with a 1330cc triple engine. The OEM battery (Yuasa YTX24 AGM) has just passed the four year mark, and I tend to replace at that point just to be safe. Along with another Yuasa, I am considering this Shorai lithium ion...

If you're in the market for a smaller cc bike, it's not likely coming from Japan or Europe. That new 400X looks killer. KTM makes the most out of their 390ADV, lets see what Triumph does with the 400X.
