I have seen people use motor bike oil for scooters and they run fine but I can't really comment since I haven't experienced it myself.
Also for that price you could get two cans of the regular 10w-30 Shell or Castrol engine oil which if changed every 2000-3000 km are enough to keep any scooter chugging happily.
What does the manual say on the grade of oil to be used?
As gear oil- sure, go ahead. Change it every time you change the engine oil. Any way a full can of oil is not needed for the engine. |
Yes, its an oil meant for wet clutch motorbikes where the engine and gearbox oils are common. In scooters, its a dry CVT, so the oil is just for the engine. So, yes, this oil might be an overkill for the scooter but should not do any harm at the least. Cost, yes, its around 2.5 times but I'm looking for a longer drain interval as my running is very low and by the time the service schedule comes, it would have hardly run 700-800 kms. Ratings - the manual recommends 10W-30 . As an alternative, it says you can use 10W-40 as well. The JASO rating should be MA (not MB as many scooter oils are). This is MA2 and can be used for MA specifications. Anyway, lets see how it performs. Did the change today at home |
