Here we go again Repsol 10w40 Purolator filter

[quantumracer]

No, it's not "bad" to change the kind of oil you use. I avoid mixing synthetic and dino oil.

HOOYAH!!!

I use the KN if only for the bolt on the end of it. Mobil 4T10W40

Many different answers without any scientific proof aside from personel experience or lack of problems from use

Any of you guys tried that oil filter that is reusable/cleanable? I forget the name.......hold on I'll do a little research.

Amsoil 10w40

OEM filter

Have not seen an oil thread in a loooong time......so not too bad to have one again. Follow a sensible oil change interval and your bike will do just fine. Any motorcycle-specific oil you can buy at a store near you will work. If not, buy them online.

Anyone using anything like this? Has anyone used one in the past? Anything good or bad to say about it..... something like 35 micron (absolute) filtering.

Stock filters are fine as long as you change them. I was told that different filters have different flow capabilities, could cause oil starvation at certain lean angles. Don't know if that's true but I know that there is no need to upgrade the filter for typical road use.

I use mobil 1 10w-50.

Mobil 1 and oem filter.

Alysin 0W20 full synthetic air craft oil and not sure what filter... but it was good for 3rwhp on the dyno! I'm sure lubing the chain helped too.. just sayin. She revs faster than ever now too.

I heard the Scotts Micron was more trouble than its worth for a brand new one each time for $8-14.

Mobile 1 Racing 4T and Wix filter. Purolator and oem are good filters as well.

If you want to stay with Dino oil you might as well stay oem on both.
