Best Oil

I don't use synthetic...so I'm out of the question.

I use Golden Spectro synthetic/petroleum blend in my premix and Valvoline 10w-30 or 10w-40 conventional petroleum oil in the box. They're both pretty oily so they work good for me! The Golden Spectro is actually green so it matches my ride. The Valvoline is golden.

I got stopped for speeding and the cop asks me "Don't you know the speed limit is 55 miles per hour?" So I said "yeah but I wasn't gonna be out that long."
