    USA engine oil options

    what engine oil brands are our options in the USA? Lots of recommendations for motorex, but that is hard to get in the US. 5w-40 in the winter and 10w-50 in the summer, seems to be the recommendation by the community as well as the manual. My bike is a 2008 fe550. I’ve seen others...

    Cooling mixing into oil

    I have changed my waterpump shaft seal and it doesnt leak out of the weep hole. I feel like my head gasket is okay because it doesnt create pressure in the radiator. Still the oil goes milky

    Hi everyone, Just got a 2011/12 fe570 and am wanting to change the oil. I went to crack into it but my 1/2 inch sockets and wrench won’t fit over the bolt between the frame. I’m tempted to use a ring spanner but then I won’t be able to torque them to spec when I’m done. What does everyone...

    A follow-up question to my oil change parts thread. I've learnt while doing my oil change that I've inherited a problem with 1 of the 2 bolts, the interior thread (in the bore) is stripped...therefore the bolt threads in okay and just spins, without holding any. I'm attaching a pic for...

    Hi, I just bought a 2011 FE570 and while doing an oil change I pulled some rubber debris from the oil screen. The only thing I see in the parts diagram that might match the shape is the valve cover gasket. Any thoughts on what this could be from?
