    Just want to understand different perspectives. The engine oil debate is going on since ages and there is no good or bad reason for that. Of course using a wrong one with wrong specs (esp. W numbers) will put you in a really weird situation.

    So what do you use and why?

    Previously used RE liquid gun later shifted to Castrol power 1 for my Thunderbird for smoothness and performance enhancement. Currently using Motul 5100 for Himalayan for less heat but Tandoor thanda hi nehin hota. Looking for more good options.

    @KD
    Castrol is a good choice. Spread the good work
    I also use castrol oil as it gives a smoother ride and also because I hold castrol stocks which I hope will payoff as down payment for Tiger.

    @sajeesh Chief I use Motul as Motul is best in class as Motul comes with ester tech. This ester tech PAO based oil is good Synthetic and provide awesome performance.

    Have been using Liquid Gun Semi Synthetic by RE....company standard, economic, availability... no complaints.
    Come next service....there is too much hoohaa about Liqui Molly 4T Synth with its performance pack...going to try that.

    I’m using Liquid Gun Engine Oil 15W50 (Semi Synthetic) for my Classic 350, as of now there is no problem found during flat run or Hills rides.
    I love it for my bull. 😊

    Best to trust the oem for the technicalities, and the required oil for the engine. Liquid GUN saras che.

    Another way is to post it under General discussion category and if chapter mods wants to make it (the meet or the ride) official, they can move the post to Events section.

    @satty I'm also thinking probably best to play it safe now. Will just go with OEM parts itself. Not worth losing warranty over I feel. Or atleast, not worth losing it immediately after purchase.
