          p180 needs 20w50 oil so better try Motul 5100 15w50 which is semi synthetic & costs 375 rs a lt & stay away from any W40 grade oils..

            Nope!
            Many oil's in the market are good. But, the oil which suits the bike is best for your bike. i.e. 20W50 grade.

              Synthetic & semi synthetics are totally different from Synthetic blended oils. Actually oils made from group 4 base oil can claim it as synthetic blended as per API norms whereas semi synthetic and synthetic oils are not made from Group 4 base oil. So we can never compare synthetic blended oil with semi synthetic. Semi synthetic oil is always better than synthetic blended.

                  Yes.. I have seen the word - 'semi synthetic' and 'synthetic blend'. I used to think that both are the same. Thanks SAFEBIKER for clearing the doubts.
                  Move on.........

                  • best fully synthetic engine oil for R15

                    plz help me out guyz.i have been using castrol power one racing for my r15 for the past few months.throttle response was amazing and so as the smoothness.i got it for 700 bucks and its only me for whom the dealer obtains this oil.but recently due to closing time of stocks or other stuffs the placement has been delayed for next one month.and the dealer said me to wait until then.i need to change my oil in the mid of feb.today i confirmed abt its arrival after 1 month with the dealer and asked whether this type of delay will be there in future or not? he said no and i hav decided to use a castrol power one for the time being and when the racing comes i'll use it again.
                    there was another thought in my mind which is should i use motul 300v 10w40 oil instead of castrol power one racing? power one racing is also 10w40 grade.i hav heard motul's 300v is good,but will in increase the accln as power one racing does?

                        No harm to continue with 5100 as it is also semi synthetic oil.
