Default what oil do I need??

Hi.

I need to top up the engine oil on cbr 600 fs 02. I am so confused with all the different oils that people talk about.

Can anybody help me with which oil will be best. I know it has to be specific for bike due to the wet clutch, but that's as far as I understood!!

Cheers

Default RE: what oil do I need??

It all depends on what is already in there. My advice is find out what is currently in the bike. If you're not having any problems with the current oil, don't change weights, types, or brands.

A lot of people will tell you not to switch between dino and synthetic oils. I tend to agree, especially if it's an older bike. Personally, I use regular ol' Honda dino oil, and have never had a problem.
