I have posted here before with concerns about using Valvoline Synthetic 20W50 racing oil (black bottle) in my Kawasaki engine. Pretty much everyone who replied said there is no need to worry. However, I was just on another website (engineoiilcapacity.com/kawasaki-fr651v-engine-oil-type/) which stated synthetic oil should NOT be used because of "sludge buildup and other problems." This is posted by SM CAR CARE. Geezus---I'm so confused.
