70 Grade Castrol GP motorcycle oil....twisty 10-07-2004, 07:36 AM I found this **** in Murrys. Do you think I can run it in my Gixxer 750 Race bike? :bash: ShanMan14 10-07-2004, 08:06 AM As long as it's MA rated (he says like he knows what he's talking about). :thumbs: Need4Speed 10-07-2004, 09:46 AM oh god..here we go again.. :leaving: Mudpuppy 10-07-2004, 11:38 AM I wouldn't recommend it for your GSXR but if you buy a HD or old Nighthawk it should work quite well.

:) Gas Man 10-07-2004, 06:11 PM 70 grade...you mean like 10-70 or 20-70?????? Mudpuppy 10-07-2004, 10:09 PM Make sure to add some of that no smoke motor honey too.. lol.. twisty 10-08-2004, 05:17 AM Nop it is just 70 grade. It is made for inline 4 race bikes. Gas Man 10-08-2004, 05:38 AM straight 70 weight......not sure about that. Kinda thick...I wonder if those race bikes have a different oil pump....
I could definately see the plus side once the bike gets hot and the oil thins a bit.... plus, you got the super filter, so bypass shouldn't be as bad due to the higher flow rate on the Scotts filter.... twisty 10-08-2004, 07:17 AM Higher flow oil pumps are illegal in most racing clubs. Gas Man 10-08-2004, 11:03 AM Really! I didn't know that. How would they know? hehe
Anyway, that's not what I'm gettin at. I just want to make sure that your current oil pump is going to scream it's nuts off trying to pump the extra weight/thicker oil. I'm sure it will but it was just something I wanted to toss out.
But I can definately see some great advatages to running the thicker oil. Once it gets hot, it would be heavier than the other. Aren't you runnin 20-50 in it now?!?!? If not that would definately be another avenue I would look at. The 10-40's just wouldn't seem to be enough for the track... | |
