Too common a word to search on the forum apparently but recommendations for Strada oil type?

10)40 semi synthetic. 4 litres from Halfrauds when on offer.

Castrol GTX. 98000+ miles so far so can't be a lot wrong with it.
George.

Thanks - so quite different types seem to work ok?

Having oil is better than no oil!

In the 80s I ran mine on GTX when it was 20/50. Changed it every 1000 miles. Oils have moved on and I change every 2500 miles. Halfrauds is probably a better oil now than gtx 30 years ago.

I have used Motul 10/40 semi too, when the right price.

Tight? Me?

Spoke to Pietro at Moto Di Marino (fab Italian bikes in a small West Sussex village - who knew!?) who said 20/50 mineral for the Strada but that the bike isn't too fussy

If the motor had run for years with mineral oil I would stay with it. If it´s rebuild and really clean inside you may change to sintetic. That´s what most people suggested in endless oil discusions here in germany.

Oil well that ends well!

Thanks all
