Cool, thanks. I have never heard of Shell Rotella, where can this be purchased from? Im assuming the Mobil 1 can be bought at any automotive store ie. autozone, kragen, etc.

I get it from Walmart for $12 a gallon.
Not the best oil, not the worst. Pretty low on the synthetic oil scale.

I am using Pro-Honda GN4 10W40. I will probably change to synthetic sometime down the line but I only have 1100 miles on the bike.

I use Amsoil 10W-40 and have had excellent results. And now you can order it online if you don't have a dealer near you.
