what kind of oil do you use?

I notice alot of guys running car mototr oil..anyoine ever have problems with there clutch?There is supposed to be a additive in motor oil thats not very clutch friendly...I run the torco+4 in the 4strokes and mc-1 for premix and bel-ray gear saver in the case..

Ive never actually seen a study or data to backup that theory that Ive heard so much. After 30 years of riding Im still waiting for those clutch problems to occur. I run Dollar General oil in my two stroke cranks. The top end is a different matter, and in my 4 strokes, they get Mobile 1 synthetic.

You're thinking about Synthetic motor oil. I've heard some people say that its good for the clutches and some who say they have had nothing but trouble.

I agree,,I never had problems either and used to run automotive oil,,but that was before synthetic..The bike shop gives me good deal on oil so I just run motorcycle oil...

From what I've read, as long as it's not "energy conserving" (usually denoted on the bottle by a starburst) you should be fine.
