I am in need of an oil change.. what id the good stuff when it comes the 1125. On both my xbs i used the ams oil.. nedd some suggestions. feels like the clutch is slipping also.. is there any adjustments that I can make or need to make when doing the oil change.. thanks in advance
 
No clutch adjustments. Just make sure the res is full.

I use Mobile 1 for motorcycles 20-50. Haven't had and issues and you can pick it up at Autozone.

If I can get the ams oil cheap I will.. that's what I used before.. I'll see. And what resivor. The one on the bars.
 
I run ams 20 50. Never tried anything else. There's a dealer on the forum that sells it. I just got a case this weekend at a local bike show. And yes the reservoir on the bars. forum dealer he made a new post but I can't seam to track it down I remember is $111 a case and about $11 shipping. Pm him for different quantity quotes.
 
I usually buy it in gallon jugs, it's about $40 I think. 20w50 amsoil. I've been running it in my cars as well, but for some reason my chevy truck don't seem to care for it. Made the lifters start ticking pretty bad, switched back to the same stuff I'd run in it for 100k miles and it went away. I was looking forward to once a year oil changes too. :(

Anyway, 20w50 runs fine in my 1125 and xb, oil changes every 6k miles roughly in the 1125.
 
I ride my cr pretty hard.. same with the Xb. I changed the oil every 3 to 3500.. I'll stick with ams oil.. anyone have the filter number by chance
