spud786 Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Good info Busy. Honda did have some trouble with the HP4 Moly when they started using the "slipper" clutches in some of the bikes, V twins and a few others, if I remember correctly. They warrantied enough of them that they sent out a service bulletin to not use Moly in those specific bikes. I remember trying it in my CBX, and it didn't cause any clutch issues, but did seep past some gaskets and made a black, ugly mess on the engine. I think they re-formulated and that is not a problem anymore. ded YEs thats true, it was several years ago. But its not moly, but how much moly that causes the issue. Usually sub 200 ppm moly is not an issue that's in many mc oils, once you get up towards 500 ppm and above that's where issues can occur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
