Engine Oils

[JitenMistry]

My question is that does Yamaha R15 need Full synthetic oil since I am not using it in race track?

I read some where that it is not recommended to use very high capable engine oil where your bike not utilise engine oil fully.

[zayn]

yes they do sell. Just go to any nearby yamaha SC & ask them yamalube 15w50 oil. BTW the oil is semi synthetic only. It is the same motul oil & is just rebadged & sold by yamaha.

Thanks Madhav that I know but how much it cost,
its a good oil for 220...

for extreme conditions

The info you have read is partially correct. The fully synthetic oils are very stable even at higher temperatures hence when the engine needs to work at its fullest then also the synthetic oils doesnt give up. To use or not completely depends on YOU. If you are willing to spend a premium (nearly 3Xmineral oil price) then you can put the oil. But wait the extra premium also has a few benefits like the oil can run thrice the mineral oils due to its highly stable compounds which do not break easily & do not loose its viscosity. Even you get a better protection, smoother engine & improved fuel economy. The synthetic oils can be used even in himalayas i.e very cold temperatures. These oils even have property to flow easily during morning starts due to which there is less wear & tear in engine & moreover these oils are designed such that they stick to the walls of the engine even after the engine is turned off.

Hoping that this helps you

Synthetick oil

Go for it,but remember the bike should be ran 4000km before shifting to full Synthetic oil,Life span is 3 times more then the Mineral oil and it depend on your riding style too but its better to invest money on Agrip FS or Motul FS engine oils rather Castrol.



20W50 OILS,

1. Motul 3000T (Mineral)
2. Motul 300V fully synthetic 15W50
3. Valvoline 4T Premium 20w50
4. Bajaj 10,000 Dts-i SS

Try these oils and your bike will love it trust me

Dear Zayn, have U ever use Agrip FS or Motul FS oils. Because I found good response in xBhp of honda unicorn using castrol power 1 racing. Castrol power 1 racing FS cost 620/- only

But its easier to find yamalube and Motul 5100 cost same its for 450rs and 300v FS is around 1050rs

ehhh
Is it that costly??? Here in bangalore the motul FS is easier to find & costs around 800. Anyways the yamalube is semi synth.

Motul 300v MRP = Rs.895/-

Go for FS if you want to use the bike for track use, or if you redline it constantly. Otherwise SS should be ample, or even mineral for that matter.
btw, the drain interval for FS is longest, followed by SS, & then mineral.
I personally feel, FS is sufficient & VFM.
Don't buy the Yamalube SS (MRP 415) though! Other members & I aren't happy with it, & prefer the Motul SS 5100. MRP 450.

I just loaded my bike with Motul 5100 15W50 semi synthetic oil, as of now it is good, but will have to see in the long run. The reading was around 3700 kms. so I will be using this for the next 2,300 kms. or so. Next oil change interval would be around 6,000 kms. I paid Rs. 425/- per litre. The oil that I drained today was just like water, though I did not touch & feel it. Which oil does Autoservice use ?

CHEERS,
