stanG Posted May 17, 2016 Share #26 Posted May 17, 2016 I have been using the Rotella T6 synthetic for the last three seasons with no problems. I actually think the clutch has a better lockup with the T6 when hammering the throttle. (IMHO) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BratmanXj Posted May 17, 2016 Share #27 Posted May 17, 2016 I wouldn't hesitate to go 5,000 with the Mobil 1. Probably any other oil for that matter. I am moving all my vehicles to 5,000. Bike goes 4-5k miles on an oil change on full-synth Rotell, all depending on how much I ride that year. My work car goes 6-7k on semi-synth but it is ALL highway light load driving Wifes & Mom's car do a lot of short trips or sit for 4-5 days at a time, they get 3-4k mile oil changes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bones Posted May 19, 2016 Share #28 Posted May 19, 2016 My vehicles all get their oil changed at 15,000 actually with Mobil Synthetic and the Mobil 1 filter rated for that mileage. The bike gets changed once a year regardless of the mileage... typically up to 12 thousand. It also gets an extended mileage filter. Motors all run just fine. Last long... My son inherited my RSTD with 50k on the clock and is working on doubling that. I like Mobil Synthetic oil... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
