    Do you have a fave Motorcycle Oil?

    MAXIMA PREMIUM 4 10w-40 I have used in for years in a Wing, Royal Star Touring Deluxe and a Nomad and all bikes felt like they ran better and cooler with it.

    Shell Rotella T 10W30

    Got my answer, good to know for the future You're correct on all counts. The formulation for Shell Rotella T Triple Protection Oil SAE 10W-30 is similar to that of the SAE 15W-40 oil. We have not submitted the SAE 10W-30 oil for testing against JASO MA or MA2. We would expect the frictional...

    Shell Rotella T 10W30

    Since Honda specs this weight, my question is how much different is the 10w30 Rotella T vs the 15w40 Rotella T. I realize it isnt JASO-MA certfied but is the formula the same just different viscosity. I used the T5 in a Nomad I had and had some slippage, so I am interested in the regular...

    Tests of some motorcycle oils

    Pete, it was the 10w40 Valvoline. As far as Rotella T I had used that in my Nomad a few years back and a good oil. In winter the 15w40 was a bit to start with. I tried to stick to 10w40 or 10w30 as Honda specs since it is under warranty. The Rotella T6 was just to try it. I like HDEOs and may...

    Tests of some motorcycle oils

    Just for the heck of it I have run the following tests of motorcycle oils over a 4000 mile range on my 2012 Honda Goldwing. Honda GN4- pretty good basic oil, notchy shifting from the start. The infamous missing from first to second gear was also pretty bad. Motul 5100 JASO-MA- very good oil...
