Re: Engine Oils

Till now i have used
Yamalube 10w40 synthetic
Yamalube 20w40 mineral
Motul 7100 20w50
Shell Advance ultra 10w40
Next
Motul 300v 15w50 .

Motul 7100 was the best oil so far for me with too much ripping, sane riding , highway riding , city riding and hill riding .. Works well in summer condition. But in winter My svc mechanic said it can create some starting issues. So will be going for 10w40 then ..

Re: Engine Oils

Evaporation is high too if ridden in bumper to bumper traffic with heavy clutching. Lost like 300 ml in 1500-1800 kms when i was using 300v

CHEERS

I will keep an eye on the oil level for sure while using this oil .
And my ride mostly includes highway, and I usually go to office in off shift timings - because of 24*7 shift job [emoji17] ,so rarely i stuck in traffic.

Re: Engine Oils

Motul 300v in R15 is a complete waste of money & oil.

There's no way a calm engine of 150cc from Yamaha need this oil. The chances are it might leak out because it's such thin.

Stick to 5100 or 7100 and it's more than enough.

I understand that 300v is too much for a 150 cc machine.. And i have good faith in 7100 as i have used it many times ..
I just want to give it a try to see how it performs . that's the reason for ordering only 1 bottle .
Thanks for the suggestions mate ..

Hi xbhpians
I m planning to pour motul 7100 20w50 in my ns200 and planning a purchase from Amazon because at my place it is not available. At my place castrol power 1 is 750rs/lt and on amazon motul 7100 20w50 is of 639rs/lt. Has any body bought it form anazon? Is it genuine product they are selling ? #doubt

I bought motul 300v and I think it's genuine...see for user reviews and ALWAYS TRY TO BUY FROM AMAZON FULLFILLED ITEMS ONLY!!!

Re: Engine Oils

The Honda throttle fully synthetic 10 w30 is manufactured by Tide water oil ltd.

Tide manufacturers it and HONDA labels it.

When you buy the black bottle manufacturer details are mentioned at the backside.

Its a good oil and can stay alive at 3.5 to 4k kms. After that vibration starts to kick in.

Cheers,
Sanjay

Great info. This is why we should read the product details.

Re: Engine Oils

Just wanted to know something or better you can say want to get forum's opinion on the same.

What's the engine oil Honda use as Honda Throttle or similar? Some people says they use Castrol some says some others. Do Honda actually produce engine oil or they are actually using some 3rd party vendor's oil and labelling as Honda engine oil?

Re: Engine Oils

About 5000 km or so. It's a full synthetic. You could push it to 7000 km but not the best idea
