Re: Engine Oils

Hi Ankush, is SVC allowing to do so or you didi it through outaide

SVC's don't allow it in their premise. However my SVC mechanic did it anyway as we've became friends over the years.

Re: Engine Oils

My CBR has clocked 41500kms. I was about to change the engine oil of my CBR 150r as it was due and I thought why not switch to another make. I was using Honda Throttle 4T 10w30 but my disappointment increased with the kilometers. I researched a lot and narrowed down my research to

1. Motul 300v 10w40
2. Motul 7100 10w40
3. Mobil1 Racing 4T 10w40
4. Shell Advance Ultra 10w40

I've read many reviews on all these engine oils and finally decided to go for Motul.
As per Motul, Honda CBR 150 was recommended Motul 7100 10W40 100%Synthetic.

The viscosity was way too different than the honda's, as pointed out by my mechanic. As soon as I pressed the start switch after oil change the firing sounded incredible. It was much smoother and lower then earlier. Vibrations were less. The pickup has improved incredibly and the acceleration lag is vanished. It feels much better as if its the first ride from the showroom. Guys if warranty allows, go for Motul 7100.

Try Motul 7100 10w40 100% Synthetic. Used for my CBR 150r. Awesome Oil. Superior than Honda Throttle 10w30

Hi there
I own a hornet . Clocked 11900 kms. Up for last service. Currently using Honda throttle 10w30 synthetic oil.
Good oil but doesn't hold that well when engine runs hot.
Can you experts here suggest me a good w30/40 grade oil ??

Re: Engine Oils

How does a 6,000 kms run gulf-pride synth engine-oil look like?

3,000 kms run mineral oil is pretty bad to look at, not sure about it's chemical/lubing properties at working temps.

Gulf pride 4t synth is synthetic oil.
And i am using it in my bike from first service. Now bike clocked 40k kms without any engine problem.
Hero's recommend drain interval is 6k kms!!
After 6k kms oil looks dark amber colour, not dark black.

Re: Engine Oils

I am using it in my passion pro. Drain interval is 6k kms. I am satisfied by its performance

Re: Engine Oils

Hello,
I've been using Gulf 4T Synth 10w30 since last 3 years in my Xtreme, and I'm pretty much satisfied with its performance. Easily lasts 2500+ Kms and a total VFM Oil as it costs almost half as compared to Throttle.

Re: Engine Oils

Hello All,
Has anyone tried GS CALTEX KIXX ULTRA 4T 15W50? I filled it today in my gs150r. Looks like a good oil and really value for money. Its APISN and JASO MA2 rated SEMI SYNTHETIC oil. Even data sheet is on par with the other oils in the market. First impression is quite good. Gear shift has become smoother than before. And in spite of 15w50, it does feel like w40 oil. Oil color is quite clear, almost transparent with slightest yellowish tint. Price is 280/L.
Recommended for pulsar owners. Worth trying guys 😀

Re: Engine Oils

My bike is 8000kms n 2 years old. Now since a month I'm using it for long runs (say 40kms at once for college runs,total 80km/day).I want your expert advice if I can use Xw50 oil (MOTUL 5100 15w50)??

let me share my opinion, since you're doing 80km/day engine will surely heat up a lot....from that point of view I believe a semi-synthetic Xw50 oil can be better for your engine. ( Motul 5100 4T 15W50 ).
