usually Penzoil, but not always, regular car oil, if I was going to run it
longer , I would perhaps use motorcycle, but I do not, and this works fine for
me.

 What type of Engine Oil do y'all use? I had heard at a seminar that
m/c's need m/c oil and that normal automotive oil when new is only as
good as used m/c oil. My Guzzi mechanic says he uses 20W50 Motor Oil
(Quaker state or Pennsoil - PA oils). I have heard Mobil 1 is a good
choice but can cause leaks. Any input?

Thanx!
