Folks,
Sorry for this oil question. I've been using Mobil 1 full syn for many years in my 1500. I've always spent the extra for their motorcycle specific stuff. Today I bought their 10W-40 full synthetic 4 cycle motorcycle oil and it is listed as "API SM,SJ,SH/CF JASO MA".
When I looked at my manual is says to use SF or SG. I checked my old Mobil 1 full syn motorcycle oil that I've been using and it show SF/SG - but as noted above, this new stuff does not.
In other words, nowhere on the new Mobil 1 motorcycle oil for 4 cycle engines does it have shown the SF or SG. I've got the bike drained and the oil ready to pour - but thought I would check with you folks before putting in. Many thanks.
