I just bought a 2015 Kymco downtown 300i and I'm trying to decide a good oil to go with. It seems to be difficult to find synthetic oils in the 10w40 or heavier range at a decent price. I see amsoil makes these flavors in synthetic but I'm curious if there are other options. I don't want to run T6 as I'm concerned with it shearing down to a 30 weight very quickly. I like the idea of running redline or motul but i don't think that will really be cost effective.
Kymco specs 5w50 but 10w40 is the next most desirable weight. Since 5w50 is difficult to find i lean towards 10w40 as a good all around weight. This scooter has seperate oil for the CVT so i can use any car/bike oil really.
