The only acceptable vegtable/nut based oil is peanut oil. If you put some turkey gravy in with every oil change you will have herds of women mob your bike at every gas stop.

LOL

I love crisco. Can we turn this into the crisco appreciation thread?
Hmmmm.... I've been spraying my chain with Axe.... That explains some things.

I really prefer Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Best smelling bike around! I just gotta keep "Joey Bag o' Donuts" from licking the damned dipstick every time I park it.

Re: Rotella T - you guys are using wrong weight!

Don't forget guys - ALWAYS buy an oil that contains a SPERMICIDE. I don't want ANY of you reproducing.....we have enough problems in this world already.

And last time I checked, 15w-40 fell between 10w-40 and 20w-50 anyway (+Yamaha has switched their formulation last I heard). I'm switching to Mobil 1 on my next oil change though because I like the bottle and I feel like I'm treating my bike to a fancy dinner with a hot looking Ducati when I give her that stuff (yes - my bike appears to be a lesbian - get over it). Rotella has a 'dinner with a tranny at a truckstop' feel since it's made for big diesel trucks and is sold at Walmart.

Oh yeah, and whatever you do don't EVER want to use synthetic before 4000 miles (even though it doesn't matter / synthetic isn't really synthetic / nothing bad will happen if you do).

Re: Rotella T - you guys are using wrong weight!

This thread it going the right direction now!!!

I have never tried Olive oil. I figured Popeye would get mad and run me over with his tugboat. How is that working out for you?

Not true! I used turkey gravy once and the result was not what I expected.
