Re: oil for the fz6? air filter?

Do a forum search for "oil" and another for "air filter". You'll find a heap of info already out there!

Re: oil for the fz6? air filter?

K&N is nice for oil...i won't claim that it is better, but the metric nut they weld on the end is enough of a reason to buy their filter.

For oil I have been using Mobile-1 Turbo Diesel Truck (5W-40)...shifts smoother than Yamalube (in my opinion).

Good Luck!
