What engine oil.?

[steve92]

Sorry i'm sure this has been covered before but i cant find anything on it.

Can anyone recommend what oil to use in their nc race bike that works well without any clutch problems.?

I use this in my NC30 on the road, should be fine in the same engine but raced.

Got castrol power 1 fully synth in the nc and fzr never had any clutch problem but there road bikes, i think the clutch slip thing is a bit of a myth nowadays and the modern synth bike oils are ok, just dont stick car stuff in it!!!!!

Or just buy the HG stuff, it's exactly the same

Thought HG had all but gone and their stuff was hard to get?

No, HG survived going into admin, although several branches found out they were closing when a lorry turned up with boxes for the stuff to be put in - the branch managers weren't even told by the head office!! Not a nice way to end!

i had been using castrol power 1 racing 10w40 then changed to 10w30.

only time ive had issues with clutch slip was race 2 on easter monday, but ive never replaced the clutch plates from i started racing the bike at the end of 2007.
