Engine oil grade
Posted: Fri Apr 05, 2019 4:05 pm
What oil grade are you using on your 900ss or 750 Sport..
Only thinking about this as on its last service the Ducati specialist used a 10w40 which I know is correct on the later bikes, but on my F1 the recommended oil is a 15w50 and I seem to recall this is correct? More as the bike is only used in summer....
A subjective subject, but this makes a interesting read, Norton related but maybe not a million miles away from our Ducati’s ?
