Title: Re: 2birds. 1 stone... Post by odvelasc on 05/07/09 at 12:59:58 I use SAE 10w40 since it gets pretty hot up here in ottawa in the summer. Also, when I do wash my bike I spray water with a spray bottle and wipe down with rags. When mud and dirt is off I use meguires car polish on tank and fenders. I use blue job to polish my header and exhaust. Blue job helps to polish and rid of blueing and orange coloration on header. |

Title: Re: 2birds. 1 stone... Post by PTRider on 05/07/09 at 20:27:02 My oil preference is a synthetic 5W-40 diesel/gasoline rated engine oil. Mobil Delvac 1 is my favorite. If you're in a very hot climate, use a 20W-50, 15W-50, 10W-50 or 5W-50. |

Title: Re: 2birds. 1 stone... Post by Sandy Koocanusa on 05/09/09 at 21:19:21 I wash mine with a pressure washer and a rag dipped in soapy water. Blast the oil and crap off instead of trying to finesse it off. Works like a charm. Alternately, I sometimes just let the dirt build up until it is heavy enough to fall off on its own. The bike doesn't care one way or the other. |
