Yamalube Oil
Here are your choices as of now. If the oil above is a marine oil, it is not for us. Something I dont understand is different at least that is my understanding right now. If it says Jaso it is fine.

Re: where to buy yamalube?
Yamaha did discontinue 20-40W
My 07 Fz is faster now that I am using Honda 20-50 syn blend. Just use motorcycle oil and change with filter every 4K miles. Ride & repeat.

. For the record, it rated very low in oil comparison test I have seen... Shell Rotella T 5W-40 synthetic is cheaper and a much better choice for a motorcycle engine...

Re: where to buy yamalube?
20w50? our motorcycles call for 10w30 0r 20w40. I dont think yamaha says to use a certain weight just for fun. I'll stick to the recomended weight even if its not the same brand of oil.
