whats up guys ... ? i wa wondering if its okay to use cars engine oil .. for my cbr 1000 ..? the reason is they dont have any honda motorcycle oil down here in egypt and the only thing i found was a dealer who sell a 150CC honda bike and he told me to use the same oil he puts in his bike ..... i need to know if i can use mobile 1 oil or what kind .. (one they use in cars ) cuz my 600 miles oil change is coming up very soon .. thanx in advance.......

another oil thread

i guess the search button must be broken

yes you can use car oil as long as it doesnt say energy conserving on the back
the #1 recommended car oil against all that have actually been tested is mobil 1 red and gold cap in 15w50
try this site for info

it does contain some moly which is bad for clutches but only 30 ppm (parts per million) more than standard honda oil

 

thanx man for the info .. and im sorry i was realy in a harry so it didnt come tomy mind to use the search engine.. thanx again.

 

Do you have UPS or FedEx available to you? If so, I would try to find someone who is willing to ship some right oil out to you. You are just breaking in your bike and I think taking the effort to get the correct oil would be worth it. If not, just use Baxsom's recommendations.

 

Hows the turbo Simo?

 

when i posted the pic of my bike the guys here told me there is no turbo on it .. its just extra exhuast or somthing like that .. i thought u knew about it .. and i called the dealer and they said they made a mistake with some other guy bill .. .. u can go back to the thread and see the pic.
kendrick.. i see that they have here fedx and DHL.. i will see first if that kind of oil can get past the customs here .. okay . thanx

 

Yeah, I was the one to tell ya, but I never heard what the dealer said. How much did it cost you to ship that far?

Sorry, off topic.

 

they charged me 1100$ just for the container + 300 cuz i wanted the bike to be inside a wooden box.....but then when it had arrived here the customs here in egypt they charge 32% of the price of the bike if its over 600CC ( punch of thievies) and either u pay or u ship it back so i ended up paying another 3000$ to those mother *********** s .. thing is that i dont like is that the roads here r very crowded i cant even get out the first gear and my hand gets very sore from holding the clutch all the time im driving ..so i ride only now at night time... sucks huh .

 

wow!!!!!!! 3000 just for customs. ouch. sorry to hear that man.

 

wow
