Another oil question. I'm at work and need to get oil for my bike. I'm away from the manual and searched the site and just need to know what WEIGHT of oil that Triumph recomends.

The place near work carries 10W-40 and 20W-50 motorcycle oils.

Which should I chose? I'm picking it up on the way home from work that way the engine will be hot when I change it tonight.

Cheers

Hmmm, didn't search very hard! :hammer:

10/40 or 15/50 synthetic or semi-synthetic.
I prefer Oil of Olay as I get older, some prefer Extra Virgin Oil of Olive

I might add that if you live in constant hot weather I would go for the 15-50. I am in RI so I use the mobil 10-40 synth motorcycle oil and it is fine.
