Millertm Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 I have used Silkoline 10W-40 and 15W-50 4T, it is costly but works great. You can get it at any Duk shop. Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veefer800Canuck Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 Might be difficult to source in Egypt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Splitlane Posted April 8, 2012 Member Contributer Share Posted April 8, 2012 I think Honda also has fully synthetic cost about $16 per quart but I haven't tried it yet. I used Mutol syn (7100) 10w40 and it works well so far. I will try Mobil 1 4T syn on my next oil change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vfrflanders Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 I only use Motul 7100 on my bike (i.m.o. worth every €-cent). Because my bike is still under warranty, I keep an eye on what Honda wants. Honda is one of the few manufacturers who recommands a viscosity of 10W-30 (4-stroke oil - API class. SG or higher). Most other bikes (Suzuki etc) use 10W-40. I also found out 10W-30 is more difficult to find (only Honda want it...). I don't know how much you pay in Egypt, but check out Ebay. Some might send the correct oil you want to your country. Full synthetic 4 stroke is not cheap...but that's the price you have to pay to keep an 173 HP engine healthy.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
