spindat45 0 Posted June 14, 2011 Report Share Posted June 14, 2011 The recommended oil and the one I have always used on my VR N/A and now charged, is Synta Silver 10W40 semi symthetic. There is an alternative available from TPS or GFS I think. I've always been of the opinion that a fully synthetic oil is too thin for these engines as they run so damn hot but I'm sure some will disagree.Kevin Link to post Share on other sites
donpulsar 0 Posted June 15, 2011 Report Share Posted June 15, 2011 Have always used semi synthetic 10W40 in mine with no problems :-) As for where to get it, try your local motor factors & supermarkets..Tesco can be well priced (Castrol 10w40 etc). No point getting your pants pulled down by shopping at Opie! ;-) Link to post Share on other sites
spindat45 0 Posted June 15, 2011 Report Share Posted June 15, 2011 Btw, I have it on good authority that Synta is produced by Castrol. Just don't quote me.... Link to post Share on other sites
bungy 2 Posted June 15, 2011 Report Share Posted June 15, 2011 Cheap enough from the main dealer and even cheaper from TPS. Link to post Share on other sites
