#30767 cruiser (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 319 finding oil and such 1 Year, 5 Months ago   I decided after reading the survey I put out about who uses what type of oil to go with synthetic oil. I called walmart strauss and I don't know who else. I can't believe it is so hard to find 20/50 oil and as far as sea foam goes forget about it only one store keeps it in stock. I should become a distributor LOL Ron   Logged     The true worth of a man is how he treats someone when there is nothing to gain. url=\\\\\\\"http://www.mytriplogs.com\\\\\\\"] [url=\"http://www.mytriplogs.com\"] Sig Pic deleted - larger than 450 pixels Free, personalized travel maps at   The administrator has disabled public write access. #30774 Greysnake (User) BB sold all the beer and bought a stratoliner. Platinum Boarder Posts: 2877 Re:finding oil and such 1 Year, 5 Months ago   Do you not have an autozone or oReileys auto parts store near by, or any autoparts stores? I know autozone carries mobil-1 v-twin oil. walley world don't carry any motorcycle spiecific oil here in KY.   Logged     06 Midnight Silverado *nothing shines like a star*   The administrator has disabled public write access. #30781 Jreed (User) Expert Boarder Posts: 479 Re:finding oil and such 1 Year, 5 Months ago   The auto zone here only had 3 quarts when I went to change mine. Told the manager to order me a case no problems. $7.99 a quart..   Logged     [url]http://www.nopork.com/mybike_detail_view.asp?name=Easy1 blue   The administrator has disabled public write access. #30787 Curt (User) Never to old to ride! Platinum Boarder Posts: 3028 Re:finding oil and such 1 Year, 5 Months ago   Not all stores of the same name stock the same items. I can only find V twin oils at bike shops where I am. They will special order only and am sure it has to be in quantities.   Logged     Black Ice is Shinny, Black Ice is Deadly, Ya Wanna Ride My BlackIce?   The administrator has disabled public write access. #30789 Musky (Moderator) Doc took Grams beer Moderator Posts: 13092 Re:finding oil and such 1 Year, 5 Months ago   Hey cruiser Most oil companies websites have dealers locators. Try going to Mobiles or whoever your looking for and check it out.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #30804 cruiser (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 319 Re:finding oil and such 1 Year, 5 Months ago   After calling several Autozones and strauss stores,walmarts and on and on. I found the motherload a Autozone that carried the plugs the oil,sea foam and filter. I was a happy camper. I bought a Mobil 1 M1-108 filter the M1-110 was bigger and I was worried that It might not have enough room to put it on the bike. Is the M1-108 OK to use it looks about the same size as my yamaha filter? Also I bought a `160z can of seafoam do I use the entire bottle I feel the bike is not running right and want to do a shock treatment? After that I will change the oil and spark plugs and change gear oil as well.<br><br>Post edited by: cruiser, at: 2007/06/18 20:36   Logged     The true worth of a man is how he treats someone when there is nothing to gain. url=\\\\\\\"http://www.mytriplogs.com\\\\\\\"] [url=\"http://www.mytriplogs.com\"] Sig Pic deleted - larger than 450 pixels Free, personalized travel maps at   The administrator has disabled public write access. #30807 Musky (Moderator) Doc took Grams beer Moderator Posts: 13092 Re:finding oil and such 1 Year, 5 Months ago   The M1-108 is on the list of filters for the Roadie. You can dump the whole can in a full tank and then run her good through the tank. But you don't always have to do the shock. If you aren't running that bad you could try putting in an oz per gallon for a couple tanks and see if that helps.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #30809 cruiser (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 319 Re:finding oil and such 1 Year, 5 Months ago   Hi Musky I think I will go for the shock treatment since I am do for an oil change anyway. This way I figure I can blast it out and then maintain it by alternating MMO and sea foam treaments.

After looking the other day all over, walked in to the cycle shop next door to where I was headed and they had some Mobile 1 V-twin 20w50 full syn in stock. Grabbed it and went. I find this, the Mobil 1 V-twin, to be a pain to find outside of the cycle shops. I actually found it hard to find any 20w50 suitable for a motorcycle in any of the parts stores (Adv. Auto Parts, AutoZone, Pep Boys, etc).

At least in my town they carry Mobile V twin and Amsoil 20/50 bike oil.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access.
