OIL THREAD ( SORRY ) - Page 2

I ran the Shell Rotella T Synthetic 5W-40 in my 1999 Nomad, and plan to continue using it in my 2006. For the miles I put on each year, less than 2K it is probably a waste, but it makes me feel good. Anyway the local Wally World sells a gallon jug for $19.00, and the ST7317 filter for under $3.00. For $22.00 a year, how can you go wrong?

I never checked, but the service manager at my local dealer told me that kaw syn oil was made by Mobil one. I will have to check the bottle out next time I am there.
I was looking at oils at Autozone a little bit ago, and I was wondering about the Mobil one 15w50. I didn't check to see if it was "energy conserving" or not though. Really that is the big thing you have to look for right? Thanks for all of the good info guys. Ride Safe!!!

Kawasaki S4 Synthetic is produced in Canada by Noco Lubricants. They also produce oils for Mobil and Esso. The Kawasaki Synthetic meets the Jaso T903 MA requirements for Motorcycles with wet clutches. Just for your information.
