In my S4 i have been using Motul fully synthetic 10-40w oil however i have now been able to get Motul full synthetic 15-50w oil and it does make a difference the bike seems smoother and a bit mechanicily quieter ...i know its subjective but it what i feel especially in the Thai heat it can only help the temp here never falls less tha 70f mostly 90f

I can believe you need thicker oil in Thailand jerry, the place was cooking when Nean an me was there last July, I loved it in Thailand but Nean hated it cuz it was so hot, we had to come straight back home, thankfully Thai Airways fixed it for us. But I will never forget being stuck in a traffic jam in Chiang Mai and wondering if I wasn’t going to melt first before my Honda 125 as well as being gassed as well.
