Re: what oil y'all using?

this bike can take conventional as well as synthetic. selection/type of oil is a personal preference mostly. if you have something in bulk you can use that but spending too much on high quality oil won't help in any way. regular oil and filter changes and care will help more than using expensive products for this bike. dealer is right. you can start using your preferred oil from the next oil change. I do the filter change (suzuki stock) every time i do oil change and i have used both synthetic and non-synthetic. bike might feel more comfy with synthetic.

you might have to use gas additives (STP, seafoam, etc) to keep the carb clean. this is the main issue with this bike.
