What kind of oil is best in a motorcycle?

Synthetic Oil:

• Highest performing engine oils

• Remain fluid even in extremely low temperatures

• Maintain viscosity at high operating temperatures

• Better fuel efficiency

• Reduces wear and tear

• Resists oxidation and thickening

• Lasts substantially longer than conventional oil

• More expensive

Semi-Synthetic Oil:

• Blend of synthetic and conventional oil

• More affordable than full synthetic

• Offer many similar performance benefits as synthetic oils

• Provide better protection over conventional oil

• Still allow some engine wear

• Last longer than conventional oil, but not as long as synthetic oil

Conventional Oil:

• Petroleum-based and refined without additives

• Least expensive option

• Suitable for low-maintenance vehicles

• Thicker than synthetic and semi-synthetic oil

• Not recommended for high-performance vehicles or extreme weather conditions

• Shorter lifespan requires frequent oil changes
