Default Motor Oil

Just got a new S2R not long ago & will change the oil every 5000km
after each service done by the Ducati shop.

What do you use for motor oil: I will use Moble1 V-Twin.
Why do you use this oil: Allways been happy with Moble1 in my cars [thumbsup]

If you use the topic search you'll find a ton of threads on what oil to use.

Noted you mention using Mobil 1 V-Twin. Highly recommend you consider Mobil 1 MX4T 10W-40. Mobil 1 V-Twin is fine for slower turning engines such as most V-Twins. In our higher RPM engines, the use of a 40W full synthetic is much a much more optimum viscosity oil.

Does it really matter, for the eleventyeventysheventyqueventyzillabillonth time, you
should use a specific mixture of ostridge lard, astro lube, and extra extra VIRGIN olive oil
(italian of course). oh yeah, we've discussed oil a couple of times.

A little virginal sacrifice NEVER hurts much.

Choice of viscosity depends on ambient though George? Also, Mobil don't agree with your comment about their V-Twin oil. I recognise your qualifications of course.
