    ZRX1200 Mobil 1 10w40 4T, 5001 miles

    Here we go again! Aluminum is still up, haven't done any work on the clutch with respect to seeing if it is the clutch basket that is causing it. No oil use, no issues otherwise so I will stick with it being a clutch basket. Iron has typically been up, a tad higher this time. My instinct says...

    ZRX 1200 Mobil 1 10w40 4T, 5345 miles

    Here you go... 5,345 miles on M1 10w40 4t and this time it held grade solidly in the shared sump ZRX 1200. 12.5:1 pistons added 20,000 mi ago. Previous two OCI's are noted as 20w50 V-Twin and 10w-40 4T. A few notes from me to share with you guys: Oil level had dropped toward the end to the...

    Koehler 5w50 synthetic industry ratings?

    Picked up some Kohler 5W50 full synthetic on a superb sale at AutoZone this past summer. I’ve read of other folks finding the same deal and stocking up. I cannot find official industry ratings for the oil such as JASO MA, etc. It simply says (paraphrasing) it is suitable/meets requirements for...
