Guest Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 Hey guys Sorry for being really annoying but I am going to buy some new oil for my bike, Kawasaki ex500 (GPZ500s)The manual says, use either 10/40, 10/50 or 20/50Anyone have any brand preference and number preference? Quote
Weebl Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 10/40, halfords motorbike oil is fine. The stuff in it is exactly that and only about 800 miles old Quote
Guest Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 Cheers Lee!Unfortunately Ill have to drain it to get at the starter clutch Quote
Guest Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 Went with Motul 5000 Was a bit cheaper than the halfords Quote
fredc Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 The starter clutch is on the alternator side of the enginenot the clutch sideyou dont have to drain it Quote
megawatt Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 Luke, don't apologise for asking questions, that is the correct thing to do. You can't go wrong with 10/40 semi synthetic. I use the Halfords stuff in my Blade with no problems. Quote
Guest Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 fraking internet told me id need to drain! are you sure?? at least i have 5 litres of spare oil Quote
