Thanks Blue, HG and the rest of you...
I'll probably make up my mind at the time
of purchase.  Maybe see what Maxim (Allen TX)
guys think, cuz that's where I go.

Just be sure they put oil made for cycles with a wet clutch. NOT automobile oil. It is not made for scooters and will viod your warranty and harm your engine.

Nothing wrong with Mobil 1, I think Amsoil is even better.  I have been running Royal Purple 10w-40 since I hit 2500 miles, no probs...
shifts great, no noise and clutch is still solid.  I'm a believer.

Like HeadGuess said, just stay away from anything with friction modifiers in it or you will end up with a slipping clutch.
