Another Rotella T Beleiver
05/25/14 at 15:10:02

I just want to say that I have had 3 different oils in my bike since I started here and the most recent today was the Rotella T 15w-40 and it is every bit as awesome if not more so than everyone here has said.

One of my first posts here was that my bike had a very bad clank noise with idle/throttle also no matter how much I made adjustments I always had a sewing machine or ticking or whatever noise, noise and more noisy engine.
I just added this stuff and it literally sounds like a brand new bike. In other words no sound at all other than a sweet sounding engine.

My biggest mistake is that I didnt listen sooner in the last 2-3 months I have been here. Thats why I added this thread.

Here is the before video where I had knocking and ticking. I'll add the new one here soon.

It works well and is a good value. I use it in my motorcycles, diesel tractor, lawn mowers.....and my car. I have done the expensive oils and they worked fine - but I am in the learning process for my retirement and trying to spend less when possible. Rotella T seems to be a very good oil at a very affordable price....What's not to like?

No never had an issue. I hooked the positive and negative wires to the tail light wires under the passangerbseat where they butt connect and the radio switches off with the key. Just in case I forget to turn it off at the switch. Never had an issue with it. It works great. Matter of fact I hooked the volt meter up while running the radio full blast with the bike running and there was no power loss at all. I ran it for about 15-20 minutes
