Since I have a new 250 Star, still under warranty, I bought the Genuine Yamaha Oil and the Genuine Yamaha Oil Filter from the dealer. The oil was $4.95 per quart for conventional oil. Yesterday I happened to be perusing oil prices in Walmart, as part of my ongoing experiment with oils, and oil was about $3.90 depending on brand per quart. I'd say the dealer isn't marking the oil up an awful lot. Certainly not double or triple. Oil is a little less expensive purchased in gallon containers, but those containers are more awkward to use.
By the way, does anyone know whether oil has a shelf life?
