Which penrite would you use??.

[Smitty]

Went to supercheap today to pick up my normal Penrite Brew and Penrite have a new range of oils.
.............

they have had this 'NEW' range for nearly a year now

and it has PISSED OFF BIG TIME..most users of their oils using it on older engines
like Ford V8s and 6 and Holden V8s (proper V8s like 308s)

why...coz the new SYN type oils cause major issues with ring wear and scuffing of the cylinder walls
as well as issues with camshaft and valve train wear
result..??? pharked engines. Complaints (and I know of lots who have gone to Penrite..including me)
have been given the cold shoulder..like STIFF, THAT IS THE ENGINE OIL RANGE NOW, like it or lump it

me ? personally? have gone from using about 250 -300 litres of Penrite engine oil a year to ZERO
phark 'em!!!!!!!!

and I would NOT use Penrite SYN oil in a bike ..any bike now(especially if you like your clutch)

Shoul I expect a slipping clutch?

If you're using this one, then you're ok. Its manufactured to JASO-MA which means it doesnt have the anti friction additive!

Some cheaper oils dont get manufactured with the additive...... so....shit cheap oil is better than expensive oil for your bike!

So in a nutshell you are saying i need an Oil that has "JASO-MA" like this one?.
