    Good day everyone! My name is Gustavo Woltmann and I am an assistant in a small and private publishers office for over a decade now. Just want to look for suggestions regarding the best motor oil for our motorcycle. What is the motor oil you are using right now and why?

    Yes the oil should have the Jaso MA or MA 2 designation for you bike.

    I have been using synthetic oil in my bike for many years. Since I have owned it. Purchased from original owner in 1988.
    Now have well over 300 000 kms on it.
    This is the product I recommend.

    Change the oil and filter once per season and the gear lube in the final drive is a lifetime fill. Put it in about 10 years ago and still as clean as on the first day.

    Its just a simple way to differentiate Japanese bikes from American.
    It has had different labels over the years.

    Ya. Marketing. Has nothing to do with what the oil is good for.
