Oils, mineral, semi syn, or full suythetic for XT660??
 

Just bought it a few weeks ago and tried to contact bike shop who done the 1000km service, he has shut down...

What oil do you recommend?
mineral?
semi synthetic?
or full synthteic?
I like Castrol brand, as l use and have been using Castrol 4T mineral 15w-40 in my YZ426 for years.
Would that be ok to use on the XT660X l have???


thanks

I use to use Motul 5100 in all of mine & never had any problems. I would not use mineral oil in a XT unless you are running the motor in.

Hi Kev

thanks for reply

i will do some checking out at my local Yammy dealer and see what brand they use also..
my motor has just hit 1900km now , the run in period has finished...
I just spoke to original owner he said he used a full synthetic, but doesnt remember the brand it was...

Motul range
