​
Important Notes:
​​​
-
Check your motorcycle owner's manual for engine oil specifications.
-
Using this engine oil in the wrong temperature range can cause trouble with self-starting the motorcycle and reduce fuel mileage due to the drag created by thick oil.
-
Thicker oil creates more resistance within the engine, requiring more energy to move parts and therefore increasing fuel consumption.
-
Thicker oil may not flow efficiently, leading to poor lubrication and increased deposits, which can turn into sludge over time.
