Just in case you all aren't tired of the topic yet, here's a link to our more modern compatriots' site (thanks to my wife, the Shadow rider...hey, I like that, we could make a movie "ShadowRider"...wait, maybe more like "GhostRider"...yeah, that's it!):

10-40 Havoline for 31 years in my 76 CB..20-50 in the heat of summer...no oil consumption or slippage after 58000 miles.   Just keep it changed and a new filter with every change

I have a honda atv with a wet clutch I used Mobil 1 synthetic within 2 rides the clutch was smoked had to remove the plates and replace all the friction discs they looked fine but had glazed over. I have been using castrol 10w-30 since with no problems clutch grabs nice.

We don't need to re-hash this just yet.  It hasn't been anywhere NEAR long enough.

I agree. I mean how many times does the correct info need to be stated?
