Vishal, u are mistaken.

MOTUL 3000 4T IS available in 10W30. The other grade is 20W40. NO 20W50 is available in MOTUL 3000 4T

In case u dont get it there,it is available with Cherry Agencies, Bangalore. There are MOTUL dealers for Bangalore.

Petronas has 10W-40 in Sprinta 4000 (semi synthetic) and Sprinta 5000 (full synthetic).

You will be damaging the engine in the long run if you use the 10W-30. Its too thin for our weather.

The 3 grades that you should stick to for our weather are 20W-40, 20W-50 and 15W-50. You can try the 10W-40 in winter.

Remember, they didn't print that manual keeping India in mind. Besides, they have clearly mentioned that you need to use an oil based the weather in your location.

Hey.... That looks and sounds like the Blade's been serviced! Or is it a previously clicked photo?

Damn, wanted to see the bike being serviced. Anyways, hopefully next time.

@Fireblah: From that picture, it seems you have got yourself a nice, cool 'KBC' lid.
