Good oil, but make sure you dont use synthetic in your bike. Honda's have some coating on the cylinder wall's or something like that you cant use synthetic

I haven't used it, but none of the shops that I've been to carry it. I prefer Motul but it's harder to get than Repsol which I've been using lately.

I dunno both Zach and Joey have sworn off Repsol, they both say that it has caused clutch slippage in their bikes.

I usd it on CJ's 929 and never had any issues but then again I never beat on that bike dunno.gif

4500 miles and no clutch issues with Repsol. This is on a Suzuki, so take that for what it's worth.

Clutch slipping may also be due to wear? Just food for thought.
