    Certified by Hero Service guys that this is best engine oil they have ever used ratting above some full synthetic..


    I am totally satisfied and I will continue with this for now. A big from my end....
    One is Shell Advance Ultra (FS) and another one is Shell Advance (SS).....both seems to be good...

      Either Neutral switch is bad(need to split Crank case to correct this) or the Clutch switch is developing lose contact....
      Take it to SVC and they will be able to sort out the 2nd possibility easily...

        FS is always better than SS.... That to from shell... The point that needs to be noted is the cost, SS - 320/- and FD - 650/-(apprx.).. Now u decide depending on your budget...

          FS oils are not VFM oils for our bikes as I felt after using one..they cost double but do almost same job as SS oil so I am using SS oil in my bike from past 3-4 flushes..

          I am also using Shell Advance AX7 since more than a yr & I am satisfied with it but my friend who was also using this shell in his hunk went for gulf pride & told me that it performs better than Shell..that created a dilemma..so this time I got Gulf Pride 4T for my bike & lets see if I'll stick to it next time or will go back to Shell Advance AX7, which is very good according to me..

            Gulf Pride is a very good oil no doubt. I never knew Gulf is available in 10W30 too...I have used GP 20W40 previously and found it good, but didn't recommend as 20W40 wouldnt suit ZMR.

                  this is a recent launch by GP..I know only two dealers as of now in Delhi who are selling this..so quite rare..

                  MRP is 350..I got it @ 300/- + there's a coupon inside every can with minimum amount of 50/- on it so that becomes 250/- per can

                            yes this is SS oil..I will let you know its response after 500kms(I will need to double check it though cuz in today's servicing my bike will get new clutch plates & chain set so I might feel smoothness in overall bike & gears for longer even if its not related to oil only :/ )

                              W30 grade oil is thinner compared to w40 grade oil. Obviously bike feels smoother with GP4T compared to AX7. AX7 gives better protection to engine internals than GP4T under harsh heat conditions.
