Do you have any issues with clutch slip; or does it slip at all??


When I was deciding what oil to get, well, stick with; everyone said that for the engine setup / clutch setup that synthetic would most likely cause a slip or eventually just slip while in gear.. I'm just wondering the validity of that, especially with how many use synthetic..



I may or may not go out in the winter. I'm a little undecided just because of the cold. But, oil weights / weather aside - I'm just trying to see if there would be any benefit of synthetic over mineral oils - and I'm not exactly sure of the engine you have compared to mine. I believe you have done some internal mods; maybe? It is a Zongshen 250cc, SOHC though. I'm right at 220mi. on the ODO.. was actually thinking about going to synthetic around the 500mi. mark? Or, what mileage would I need to be at before making a switch to synthetic?
