Oil question for bike engine
Hi all, just put my turbo on my ZX9 engine and I used some oil that I used throughout last year, it's regular 10/30 or 15/30 I can't quite
remember car oil. I know I need motorbike oil because of friction modifiers etc. in car oil
I filled the engine today after getting my turbo drain welded into the sump and only had enough to JUST see it through then bottom of the sight glass.
I now need to buy some oil, I don't want to but 5L of car oil just to top off when I know I need bike oil, so my plan is to buy some bike oil.
What should I do, top off with the bike oil and do an oil change after mapping (car oil might cause clutch slip but I haven't had any clutch
slip before turbo)
Or just change my oil now and replace with bike oil? (oil may have got some crap out of turbo, oil lines etc.)
Bare in mind that I will most likely have to change my clutch springs and also take off the ignition cover to put a timing light on the ignition
rotor.
Dave
