what type of oil is right for a 2004 cbr 600 RR. I am using honda's HP 4 synthetic blend with out moly. Is this the correct oil I should be using???

 

Thats the right stuff. The manual says to use the non-moly blend.

 

yep...gold-bottle....

 

thanks

 

moly is for wet-clutch
so don't use

Honda's "moly-free" product contains 71 ppm

most oils have some moly in it but very little

 

I use Golden Spectro Synthetic/Petroleum blend. It's great oil... havent had a signle issue with it.

 

last time i checked...the RRs, f4is, etc. are all wet clutch bikes...and you don't want to use moly in wet clutch cause it'll cause slippage.

 

what about Honda GN4 20w50?

 

what about honda GN4? it's fine to use on bikes.
all oil has a bit of molybednum in it...and motors and trannys are cool with just a tad, but too much and you get slippage.

oh yea, if you ever replace your oil pump, the manual says to use some moly oil on the shaft and in various areas of the pump assembly...so a bit won't hurt.
