i posted this in a different area on mistake so i hope i get some help in here.


ok at my work we sell types of lucas motorcycle oil. syn and normal of most all weights.
what wieght should i use? the po put in 1040 but guys at work said 1030 syn will work fine. and we sell k&N & wix filters. so i was thinking wix oil filter and the 1030 syn. need to know b4 tomorrow morning so i can pick this up.

i would goto a bike shop but work times and my transportation atm is limited. till i get this bike running.

also wondering about wix air filter,fuel, and spark plugs we sell autolite and ngk.

any help would be great. just need to get this stuff done within the next day or so

 

I'd personally stick with a 10-40 moto oil. As far as filters, wix is a good one.

Air filter... I've been using emgo because they're priced right. I see no reason not to use wix if you can get the right one.
On the plugs.... I like NGK. I use them in pretty much anything I can, and haven't had any issues. However, I just put autolites in the Magna because that's all I could get on short notice. Is what it is. I've heard people swear by every one of the plug manufacturers.

 

+1 I wouldn't put anything heavier than a 40 weight in my bike. (i.e. 10w30)

I use 5w40 Rotella T6, but the 5 part is pretty irrelevant since that is the cold viscosity and is really only relevant for cold starts in very low temps.

I personally use a PureOne oil filter and a K&N air filter (simply for the unlimited usage) but I've heard great things about wix oil fiters and BMC air filters as well.
