Managed to try out the elf xt eo juz now. Not bad. Compared to Castrol R4, slight improvement changing gears, not so rough. Acceleration was a bit slower but find the bike was running much smoother @ 100kph/7900rpms.

 

Now the ultimate test, to see if it is still smooth after 2000 clicks. R4 will loose its smoothness especially in changing gears/neutral at around the same distance.

 

Price wise...elf is definitely waaay cheaper than R4....even inclusive of the $5-6 service charge :smile: You save at leat 5 bucks bringing you own oil.

i think 4k is a bit too long considering we travel mostly in a stop and go situation unless ur house & destination just beside the exit/entrance to a highway.

 

A more realistic distance would be 2500-3000km travelled. :smile:

 

Anywayz, i think the elf oil is way much better. I was travelling to work thru PIE @ 100kph. BUT my rpm was only 7500...on an slight incline (before sims drive) somemore! :giddy: Usually it would be around close to 8000rpms at that speed. Now 8000rpms and i'm close to 110kph (around 107 range)

 

Btw my sproket set up is 15/40

4,000km = 2,485.5miles

most oil manufacturers recommends stop/go oil change interval at 3,000miles (aprox. 5,000km).

if it is long haul trips like touring or travelling along highway more often then oil change interval at 5,000 miles (aprox. 8,000km).

u r actually quite safe, also no harm in changing oil frequently.

like the saying goes "Fresh oil is better than dirty oil, much better than no oil". :thumb:

so any oil manufacturer wats is the recomended oil change for semi synth??? cos most manual only say 4000km change oil, but neber state which oil... :confused:

i believe most will change at 3,000km for any brands of semi-synthetic oil.

don't take my words, u might want to do a search on the webby.

 

like bmw, they don't recommend API "SJ' spec becos lack wear protective additives like zinc, magnesium, calcium, phosphate, sulphate, etc.
