Are some of the Mobil-1 users just using the regular Mobil-1 car oil?

i've read in the past that it isn't a good idea to use auto oil. i would stick with specific motorcycle oil just to be safe.

Repsol 10w 40 full syn..works great.

Mobil-1 4T

Mobil 1 15w50 synthetic, used it on all my previous bikes too...

That is a fine oil for hard driving in extreme temperatures, but the bike will change gear noticeably smoother and more silent with a thinner oil like e.g. 5w40 synthetic. The engine noise is lower with 15w50 though.

I use the AMSOIL Motorcycle oil. If you suys are using Mobil 1 from WalMart,make sure you get the Mobil One Motorcycle oil. Mobil 1 4T

Last change switched to Motul 5100 10W40 Oil so far bike seems to be running smoother and shifting little better as well.

I believe that's known as the placebo effect...aka I paid a buttload more than I should have for this oil so it makes a huge difference!

Actually, I settled on Amsoil in my 32V DOHC Mustang after trying Redline, Royal Purple, Mobil 1 and Ford's Syn oil. The vavletrain/engine noise was noticeably reduced compared to the other oils and I also noticed a slight increase in gas mileage. That's no BS.

I will also be using Amsoil in my Busa when my first oil change comes.

It's expensive but the Silkolene Synthetic work's great for me. I also use their synthetic chain lube. It's all personal preference. Don't be scared, their oil is red and could trick you into thinking it's ATF.

AMS OIL at 10w40 also

Amsoil MCF (motorcycle formula) much smoother shifting, it will definetly be goin in the new Busa.
