I use Yamalube 10W-40 mineral.
Change it every year incl filter. HiFlo filters usually...Stage 3 bike.
First time I changed the oil, I used the Yamalube and it caused clutch slip.
I deep cleansed the clutch plates with a lheat gun, basically burning ( carefully) the oil that was already soaked into the friction material. Done gently, it will turn into a puff of blue smoke and the friction material changes from a dark, glossy surface to a dry , lighter colour. As I had no way of knowing which oil the previous used, it's always going to be a possibility. Oils dont always mix. Thats the difference between clutch slip, and oil incompatibilities.
Yamalube mineral is perfectly suited to this engine. You need to change it a little more often as the molecular chains, which make it more suited IMO, get broken down more quickly than a synthetic oil does. As this happens, it becomes less effective quite quickly.... As most people dont clock 10K miles a year, I really cant see why they argue the toss about expensive synthetics. There are benefits to both. The trick is using them to their strengths in the right application....
