Prolly too late as we have gone past mayday Smile

But I have always thought oil choices are a bit anyhow. Castrol GTX seems popular so you could try it and see how your clutch performs.

i use cheap supermarket oil in all my bikes and change it every few hundred miles with no problems but maybe I'm a cheapskate and a tinkerer Wink

depends on how you ride your bike too I guess.
