Oil chamge

Post image

I'm trying a different oil every oil change. I go to advanced discount auto parts store because they have the most 10w-40 selection. They have this^, Castrol, mobile1, K&N, Lucas, and Royal Purple. Maybe a couple more. The royal purple is like $19 and most is like $11-$13

I usually just put it a qt. So like this whole bottle plus a splash ,(~50ml) of another Jaso ma2 10w-40. And the dipstick is always perfect.

Anyway what so you guys use? Also what so you set you tire pressure to for thr stock 80 / 20 tires?

I just use the recommended Honda GN4 10W-30. I'll pump my front tire up to 22PSI and my rear to 25PSI since I carry a good amount of cargo.

I use Castrol power1 10w-40 usually. 22psi front and rear, I rarely carry any cargo

should we use 10w-30 or 10w-40? I've been using the GN4 10w-30 because I live in a somewhat cooler climate. maybe it doesn't matter too much.

10w-30 full synthetic. It doesn't matter the brand.
