Oil for FE650?

Tamas · Jan 13, 2013

Hi guys!
I was just wondering what kind of oil would your recommend for a 03' 650?
There is a store which sells motorex but its double the price of Motul or Putoline.
I currently have 5w50 Putoline in my bike but im thinking of changing to motul since I only put motul in my Yam wr400 and had no problems with it ever.
The problem is I cant seem to find 5w50 Motul, only 15W50 , 10W40 and 5W50.
Any thoughts?

Cheers, Tom

I use Motul 300 V 4T Off Road 15W-60 in my FE550.
Before I had also Putoline,but a KTM mecanic with more than 30 years experience in engine rebuilding recommended me using Motul.Guess he must know

I use putoline. Similar reason as previous post, but this particular mechanic is a Husaberg one 8O

Unless your ridin its tits off i dont think it matters, theyre all good oils, i reckon its down to personal choice.

As long as you change it when you should then go for either

I use Rotella T6. Changing oil often is probably more critical than the exact oil choice. As long as it has the right ratings (in my case JASO T903 MA), you should be OK.
