What kind and quantity of oil filters have you all accumulated? I am responsible for changing oil on 5 vehicles... Two cars and three bikes. Fortunately all 5 vehicles take the same form-factor, in this case it's the ubiquitous 6607 filter. So I've got a half dozen Bosch 3300 filters I got...

I was surprised to learn that Rotella T6 is now being offered in 10W30, and the new T6 jug has a pic of a motorcycle on it too. Oddly, despite having a motorcycle pic on the front of the T6 jug, there are no JASO MA letters on the back! As I shared recently, the T5 10W30 recently added the...

I was going to ask about longEST lasting motorcycle tires, but came to my senses before I clicked the "Post" button... lol I'm running Bridgestone BT46ers on one bike (CB1100), and with about 7k on them, they're probably only good for one more season. I've been pretty happy with their...

Both Chevron and Texaco gasoline contain PEA detergent straight from the pump, but has anyone ever measured the concentration level compared to adding a PEA fuel cleaner such as Techron or Redline? How would you test a fuel to determine the concentration of PEA or other fuel detergent...

You Can't Change Your Oil Too Much! Or at least this was the conventional wisdom when I was a kid back in the 70s. I have followed this for all of my adult life and I can say that it has always worked for me. If a vehicle's recommended OCI was 4k miles, i would almost always change it before...

I wanted to thank the good folks here at BITOG for turning me on to this oil for my CB1100. I have tried the Honda Gn4 10w30, 10w40, and Rotella T6 15w40, and the Rotella T5 is by far the smoothest and quietest oil I have had in this bike. I was hesitant at first since Shell didnt put the MA...

Love the oiler tank with the hand activated pump! Who knew 2 and 3/4 horsepower would change the world?! 100 years since their first Isle of Man TT title!

I apologize in advance, I have already searched the forum but I wasn't able to find a simple answer that made sense to me. My problem is multi-grade motor oils... In theory, a 10w40 will be a 10 weight when cold, and a 40 weight when hot, right? If that's true, why are motor oils generally...

As the riding season is winding down for much of the Northern Hemisphere, I am looking for ways to keep my carborated Honda Shadow from needing a full carb clean next Spring. E0 is not available anywhere near where I live. In the past I have used Stabil gas treatment and Seafoam, and I try and...

It's back! My Hondas all love this stuff.

I'm starting this thread to compare the two flavors of Rotella 15w40 in motorcycles. Apparently the synthetic T6 was only available in 5w40 for many years, so if you wanted a Rotella 15w40, you were looking at the T4 "Dino" oil. I've been very happy using T4 15w40 in my Nighthawk 750 (air...
