0w 20 oil, to my surprise

I used to own the same bike, but based on your billet triple clamps, it looks like yours is an XC.

No more of that watery 0w-20 in my 1500! Changed to 5w-30 and engine purrs like a kitten. None of that 3-4 second clacking upon startup either.

Yep. Been using 5W-30 since my first oil change at 800 miles. The beast loves it! Such a smooth and quiet engine. 5W-40 for long trips in the summer months.

Yep. Tatum and Dynamite in Cave Creek. I moved back to Idaho in 2007.
