Chetta, did you checked out the oil shop near to Pongummoodu petrol station???

Not yet.... today only I'm hearing that this shop has these stuff... next time I'll check them out...

[lijok]

Ahh... ok, my mistake... I read Mobil as Motul... ok ok... So Mobil is imported and is fully synthetic... and 15W50(is it???).... and 1200 per lt... wonderfull... Let me see, maybe when oil change is due, I may be better off financially

I am their regular Shell oil customer from more than 4 years..... I use Shell 2T oil and also Shell 20-50w type engine oil for RX135 gear oil and also for CBZ... I hope that you will get what you are looking for... Brands like Gulf are also available there...........

[Doctor Noel]

and also he wont charge the exact price which is printed on the bottle... gives a little discount like 5rs....

hehe... the shop owner is really a good guy... simple annuu... he always recommends oils like Shell, Gulf, Mobil etc........ Never told me to buy Castrol and all... He says its not that quality like others and also smokey... autowallaas take castrol for the auto....

mobil is usually used in cars. verify it before buying. also simply do not buy the oil with the wrong rating. it will damage the engine.the yamalube semi synthetic is better than motul semi. it even costs 415 rs.valvoline synthetic blend is avilable. it is good for bikes like fz ,apache etc. some pulsars are known to have issues with motul(synth)15w50. so better try 10w40.several pulsar users told that valvoline was a nice choice.do some research and buy. i did a month's research before i shifted to motul.
@remy: change to motul synthetic after 9k kms. motul synthetic will only prove any good only if you are into long touring. lijo will benifit from it.
also castrol duplicates are flooding the market. beware. ex-jawan is the best oil shop. motul,valvoline,castrol etc are all available. i bought the 875 oil for just rs. 750. (i made friends with the owner) he was a former castrol rally champion.

i know. i have been using motul 15w50 synthetic for over a month now.some pulsar 150 and 180s had trouble with this oil(cylinder head leaks). check the oil thread and you ll learn more.

That is not a major problem... Cylinder head should tighten with new gasket or with some solution bond... synthetic oil never evaporate and it can reduce the engine heat better than the mineral oil
