TOPIC: Which oil in AZ? Forum Tools Post New Topic Show latest posts Rules

#103211 DKLAZ (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 118 Which oil in AZ? 4 Months ago   I just finished building my DIY lift from the lumber and gas pipe.....works great!!! I ran down to Wally World, then to Auto Zone to get 5 quarts of Mobil-1 20W/50, and they looked at me like I was off my rocker (neither place stocks it)! There were a couple other brands of dino-oil in that weight, but nothing synthetic. I'm interested in anyone's advice. I'm in AZ, the temp outside is averaging 110 during the day, and I ride every day nearly 50 miles.

Platinum Boarder Posts: 1417 Re:Which oil in AZ? 4 Months ago   I use Amsoil synthetic oil 20W50, Mobil 1 Vtwin is also very good make sure any oil you get is for VTWIN, Royal Purple is popular too.

I'm currently using Royal Purple 20/50 no issues. I was wondering though if anyone here had ever used the Havoline brand motorcycle oils as carried by A-Zone ? they are for 4 strokes and the label reads that there jaso- ma service and for wet cluthes I don't know anything about engines is a V-twin a 4 stroke ?   Logged     DColey   The administrator has disabled public write access. #103351 Greysnake (User) BB sold all the beer and bought a stratoliner. Platinum Boarder Posts: 2877 Re:Which oil in AZ? 4 Months ago   I use amsoil 10w40 year round and have been in 100 degree heat with no problems. dcoley your Road* is a 4 stoke and if the oil is jaso-ma rated you can use it in your bike.   Logged     06 Midnight Silverado *nothing shines like a star*   The administrator has disabled public write access. #103403 edgeman55 (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 55 Re:Which oil in AZ? 3 Months, 4 Weeks ago   Amsoil 10/40 in my 05 up here in the Nevada high desert country.Bike has seen temps from way colder then I want to ride up to 115.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #103627 dcoley (User) DC Junior Boarder Posts: 103 Re:Which oil in AZ? 3 Months, 4 Weeks ago   Hey, fella's I need to correct the brand of oil I mentioned previousley as being Havoline that was incorrect, I was in A-zone this afternoon and the brand that I was wondering if anyone had tried in their bikes is Valvoline motorcycle oil. I didn't see any in synthetic for bikes made by Valvoline.   Logged     DColey   The administrator has disabled public write access. #107036 dthorny (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 2 Re:Which oil in AZ? 3 Months, 2 Weeks ago   Kimball, I too live in AZ and have used the Royal Purple for the past year with no trouble at all. The engine seems quieter than with the stock oil and appears to produce less heat.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #107101 slyguy (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1158 Re:Which oil in AZ? 3 Months, 2 Weeks ago   I'm suprised you couldn't find Mobil 1 V-Twin synthetic at autozone. I live in AZ too and the two autozone's I frequent carry it.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #107137 cartersta (User) winter antifreeze, send jack daniels Gold Boarder Posts: 953 Re:Which oil in AZ? 3 Months, 2 Weeks ago   whatever oil you get just put in 4 qts only, no more, i just changed mine to royal purple 20-50, and it still sounds like a roadstar   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #107149 DocShadow (Admin) Hmmmm .... send beer Admin Posts: 10754 Re:Which oil in AZ? 3 Months, 2 Weeks ago   I tried Valvoline synthetic oil once and found the engine noiser that the Mobile 1 that I normall used.
