i know i have seen in here some threads on some of the best oils to use but can not find them now so my question is- what would be a good word search tried oil and oil change.and did not find out what i was looking for. oils to use and best places to buy them local or online.thanks.

I just typed in "engine oil" and came up with 56 threads in the "Lubrication and Lubricants" forum.

There's a lot of differing opinions on which oil to use and it really boils down in the end to what you personally wanna use. As long as it meets the specs for the engine then its prolly ok to use.

I personally use Mobil 1 V twin in the engine and plain old HD Sport-trans in the gearbox. :)

thanks and now i have a place to start looking and check whats out there.
