[QUOTE="ossagp, post: 197581, member: 1650"] I love castor of any kind. the trouble is that if you run a bike a long time between teardowns you have more problems with that than most other oils. If you want the valves to remain wet and free you will need to be more in the 16-24 to one range than 32-1. it is a racer's oil as opposed to a casual rider's oil. it also tends to separate more when it gets cold, or "fall out" of suspension with the gas. that can leave you with a carb full of oil and no fuel. (yep, had it happen before you ask, and does it ever fool you the first time if you are like me.) [/QUOTE]
