re: Car to motorcycle oil filters conversion
Scudman said you can get the synthetic stuff at Walmart. But I couldn't find the synthetic, just the regular oil

Not too many oils out there that will hurt the engine. I have never used Royal Purple but I doubt that it will hurt the engine. If the cheap quality OEM
oil is OK then everything else should be good as well. The main difference is price and hype. Rotella has historical backing as many people have been using it and it is only $14/gal for full synthetic.

5000, never would I go that long on any oil. I am a stickler for over changing my oil, I try to change every 1000 miles. That is me though, I know I over do it, but thats the way I play.
