Hello everyone, I have a 1985 Goldwing that requires SE or SF rated oil. I have found out that new ratings of oil (SJ on the new HP4 Honda oil) don't neccesarily enhance previous ratings just superceeds them and may not protect the old engine as is recommended. I have also heard that synthetic oils are not more slippery the natural oils and won't reduce clutch performance. What do I do to give the old girl what she needs. I have heard that some of the diesel oils give it what it needs. Just need some professional info. Thanks. One more thing I change oil as close to every 1500 miles as I can; so is all this concern even warranted?
