Hi - I tried an independent BMW mechanic in my neighborhood who was the service manager for BMW North America. It wasn't the best experience money wise but the bike is running good. I should have done the service myself - oh well.
He put Mobil 1 syntheic 15/50 - I always used the BMW 10-50 - when I questioned him on it he really defended using the syn oil on my bike.
In all the threads I've ever read from F650.com, the jury seems to be out on using syn oil on this motor. The bike is shifting better than ever and no clutch slippage.
Any comments on yay or nay on keeping this oil in my crankcase would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Ken
