    2021 BMW F750 GS - Good Oil?

    . Right. I never understood going cheap with motorcycle oil. The above mentioned brands are great choices. If you want to spend a bit more, HPL makes a ATV/MC specific oil, wet clutch friendly, for your needs. It does not appear on their website so you have to contact them through their website...

Sort of, because I go at least 12,000 miles between changes and sometimes 15,000. I realize too, that I...
