33 licensed street bikes under my belt . Way too many dirt bikes to count .
I am a true gear head . What I did is warm up engine good when it first ran . Dumped that so called oil in it. Than ran 100 miles with 15-40 and will change oil again at 500. Like my KLR 650 I will be changing oil often . As thumpers abuse the crap out of the cylinder and wall. That's also why I prefer to use Shell Rotella diesel oil . Lots of zinc to lube against sheering of oil. I had zero shavings in first and second oil change , which suprised me . But I am getting clutch chatter . I may have to switch oil and see if that makes chatter go away . I hate to start tearing apart new clutch pack and springs to see if I can make it go away . Sometimes oil does the trick though. I know I have clutch springs that will fit as I never threw away anything from any bike I ever owned . Hence the 25x 50 garage with a basement under 1/3 of it
