i'm sure most of you have seen this, but for those of you who haven't, from the pelican parts "s" forum............ (synthetic oil)


Beware of synthetic oil, it can do terrible things to
you and your beloved motorcycle. It will not only leak
out of your engine faster than you can put it in, but
it will also cause your oil filter to clog and
implode, dumping debris and dirt into your lubrication
system. It also will make every part of your bike
permanently slippery because of its linear molecular
chain dispersion action. Then it will leak onto your
kickstand causing it to retract automatically,
dropping your bike on the ground! But that's not
all...

Synthetic oil will round off your gears and spin your
bearings. It will also splatter onto your seat causing
your girlfriend to fall off in the apex of a turn and
she'll never ride with you again. Synthetic oil coats
your sight window and your timing window with a
whitish pro-emulsification additive that is both
non-removable and highly corrosive. Synthetic oil will completely leak onto the ground overnight and your dog will drink it and die.

Synthetic oil will wear out your tires and make your
battery leak. It will give you the desperate need to
urinate after you put your full leathers on and then
jam your zippers shut. It will contaminate your
gasoline causing your bike to stall on railroad tracks
and accelerate uncontrollably near police cars. It
will make it rain during rallies
and on weekends. It will lubricate four timing belts
causing them to jump teeth and break your valves to
bits. Synthetic oil chemically weakens desmodromic
valves and causes the clearances to change every six
miles. Then it melts the black soles of your riding
boots night before you walk across your new carpeting.

While riding past groups of attractive women it will
cause both of your handlebar grips to slip off at the
same time so you smash your windscreen with the bridge
of your nose. It also causes your swingarm to crack,
your studs to break, and your rotors to warp, and then
it voids your warranty by changing your odometer
reading to 55,555. It also dries out your wetclutch
and wets your dryclutch. It makes your clutch slave
cylinder seal fail in the heaviest traffic on the
hottest
day of the year while putting an angry wasp in your
helmet for good measure.

Synthetic oil hides your 13mm socket and puts
superglue on your earplugs. Synthetic oil will scratch
your faceshield and make your gloves shrink two sizes
night before trackday. Synthetic oil stole your
neutral and sold it to the Chinese for $1.25.
Synthetic oil will make you grow a tail. Synthetic oil
will write long crazy e-mails to your Internet friends
and then sign your name at the bottom!

That's why I put synthetic oil in my bike at 6K :D
When many high performance engines come with syn from the factory why not my BMW bike?? Do the laws of physics change when BMW builds engines?? Does the internal combustion process differ somehow?? :dunno

Believe it or not, there are some that think so. :dunno

I've heard of some guys waiting until 25,000 miles or so to use synthetic. At that point, I'd think it's kind of a moot point.

Myself, I went to MOBIL 1 75w/90 in the tranny / final drive at 1200 miles. Went to MOBIL 1 15w/50 in the engine at about 3500 miles. :thumb

I agree, too many people make a 'mystery' out of nothing. I use syn oil in my outboard engines after the 10 HR inspection/oilchange and so far no failures yet after 6 years of use. Than one day a mechanic tried to tell me that Mobil1 wasn't 'formulated' for saltwater use. After retreiving my eyebrows from the treetops :jawdrop , I went inside and had a harty laugh :rofl and a beer :drink .
So much BS about oil and so little riding time make for a strange mix of urban legends I guess. :dunno

? Flash ?Bite me. http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/images/smilies/flipoff.gif

I use synthetic oil in all my bikes. I try to change it at 6000 mile intervals. I have let it run to 7500 miles. I have oil assays that PROVE that running it that long is NOT A PROBLEM. The "3000 miles or else" guys can take their faith-based oil-religion and go pound sand with it. I have PROOF that oil lasts even longer than that. And I proved it with my own motorcycle, TWICE.

BTW... my ex-wife's TDI VW came with synthetic oil in it from the factory.

Synthetic oils can easily go twice the service distance that conventional oils can.

I'm finally making myself wait until about 5000 miles or so, before I do the oil / filter change thing.
