Which Oil for 350sport?

Post by klc8 » 31 May 2014, 10:39

Hey guys,
just bought a MM 3 1/2 Sport and i think i should refill some oil. there is no need of oil change.
Which oil can i use or should i use? im very new in the moto morini world and i guess i have to learn
a lot about my firechair.
thanks and a sunny weekend

Hi Leo,

Welcome to the forum and good luck with your 3 1/2 Sport!

Use oil from a proper brand and in Summer time it's 20W50, for Winter 10W40.
Do not use full synthetic, but "normal" mineral oil.

Personally I use Valvoline, or Kroon Oil http://www.kroon-oil.com/nl/. The second one is a Dutch brand.
20W50 is sometimes difficult to get, but Kroon has got it.

Hope this helps!

Tony

I use 10w60 Castrol Edge, full synthetic. Bit expensive but in my opinion the best oil you can get for your Morini (or any old 4 stroke)

Why Summer 20W50 and Winter 10W40? Why can't we put 10W50 in our bike for Summer and Winter?

Please dont use synthetic unless your crankshaft is cleaned (sludge trap)
