Default Probably just another oil thread!

So when I ordered oil for all my fluid changes, I ordered both 10w-40 and 20w-50. Manual says use 10w-40 under 40F degrees, and 20w-50 over 40F degrees. Today I used the 20w-50, seems to run pretty quiet.


What weight do you all run and when? I really don't recall why I ordered the 10w-40, since I really wont ride under 40F degrees. Should be fine to use sometime tho I guess.

Mobil 1 20W-50 for the motor.
Any decent ATF in the primary. (Anything works that won't make the clutch slip)
Red Line Shockproof in the Tranny.

What are these seasons you speak of?
