Just ensure you change it within 1200-1500 km. It loses viscosity soon.

What about Havoline or Motul 10w30? Can I ride more kilometers with these?

2k at max with any mineral oil. Motul for some reason doesn't go well with Hero bikes. Also, it has a tendency to evaporate (in mild quantity) if ridden hard.

Has anyone used castrol power1 10w50 on their duke/rc 390?

Re: Engine Oils

Hero Glamour recommends 10W30 oil for its engine. Should I use the Hero 4T Plus 10w30 that is sold on the HeroCorp showroom? Or anything else?

Yes you can.

The grade should match. Rest is the quality of the Oil and the stock oil is also good however you can also try this oil

Re: Engine Oils

Have been using motul300 in my R15v1 since the past 4 months.. there has been better acceleration and reduced vibrations but the engine feels kinda stressed when revved hard ie its not smooth like mineral.. had been using the mineral yamaha lube since 2008.. Should I keep using synthetic or downgrade to semisynthetic from motul like 7100?? Any other suggestions...

What grade 300V are you using? I think R15 uses 10W40. The 300v you put could be 15W50. make sure you use the correct grade.
Also motul 7100 is also fully synthetic just like 300v. 3100 gold and 5100 are the semi-synthetics from motul.

Re: Engine Oils

It doesnt matter what grade you use unless its less than the prescribed range.. i checked with my svc guy and he told me 15w50 is absolutely okay.. the acceleration has improved but that stress on the engine is whats bothering me.. its not smooth like it used to be.. i am planning on downgrading and using motul 7100 next time.. i just wanted to know if anybody else has had the same feeling..

Motul 7100 series is fully synthetic.
300v will give you high revving and accelerating engine but at the cost of high engine temperature and vibration maybe especially on lower cc engines. It's actually great oil but for more cc, racing bikes...
If you still want to use or take advantage of this oil I'd say to mix it with the correct grade for your bike. There are no problems with mixing different grades or semi /full synthetic of oil until you go lower than the recommended grade.
For our hot climate 300v is an overkill and it's not downgrading to change to 7100, is also great. 7100 one might be the best for you if you choose the correct grade.
Refer below as well.

Re: Engine Oils

No it doesn't even last for full 3K kms. That is just a marketing gimmick from bajaj. Even superior oils don't last so much in Indian heat. How can bajaj oil last 10K and by the way it is also called as vegetable oil

Re: Engine Oils

Hi,
Has anyone bought Engine Oils or Motul Chain lubes from Snapdeal lately?

Seems like there is a big price difference with other websites.

Anyone know why this is called Sports Bike oil?

http://www.snapdeal.com/product/motul-300-v-sports-bike/654785661377

Usually Motul 300V is having below sticker and tagline.

http://www.snapdeal.com/product/motul-motor-oil-300v/730078401

Double Ester/Ester core Are those above the same?

Also the 7100 20w50 seems only 699 which is also very low than other websites.

http://www.snapdeal.com/product/motul-motor-oil-7100-20w50/1523216993

Are these genuine?
