I can give you one good tip ...if you buy your oil in gallons or 5 litres
first shake the can before pouring any out.
sometimes additives separate out...are either at the top or at the bottom of the can/container.
in in effect when you pour out your measures for each oil change ..your getting different oil make-up ..if the can hasn't been shaken.
so shake that can when its new .......and each time you use some out of it .
i see from looking at these bikes for the last few days, that there is an oil cooler kit available ..that's about the best thing you can do .
change the oil every 1000 miles...and you're doing your best
not sure weather synthetic oil would make any difference or weather compatible ..others will know
all the best.markj
