Gidday I have a 91 FJ1200 and were wondering whether anyone can recommend an oil for it. I haven't had it long but don't know when the oil was last changed and would love to hear any suggestions Loving the bike and it's torque and smooth, effortless cruising !! Matt
im using mineral motorcycle oil 20w 50 in mine at the mo,..or if you can afford it, motol 15w40 semisinthetic from any good bike shop.(is what is recomended) and a new filter, and change every 6000k
I have a '96 abs Model, and it was mt everyday bike, and I mean 'everyday'.... I use 10/40 semi synthetic oil, tthe basic Havoline one, actualy the one sold in the warehouse. It does not contain additives for anto friction. Bear in mind that although the bike may be a '91... the motor is exactly the same as the original 83, FJ1100... so a 10/40 semi synthetic is far superior to the oils available in those days. I change oil every 5000km's but I do also change filter with every oil change,,,, after almost 90,000 km's the bike runs fine, no smoke or oil use.
