    Valvoline it is

    Marty
    The same Valvoline in stock at my Local Auto Parts store
    Nothing to loose I am going to give it a try also trying to decide if I should order a new oil filter I just put in new and I think at least I should remove the filter and get as much as I can out of the bike.
    We shall see what happens Keep you posted
    Thanks for the help

      Filters are available at your favorite auto parts store. Replace it. Wix, Carquest, NAPA, they all have it.

        WHAT IS THE TEMP!!! 20-50 works for the summer, but if your trying to start the bike at 35F, the clutch WILL give you problems. Try a 10-40 for the winter, and go to a 20-50 when it warms up. Just my 0.02.....

          Yes, this is a shameless oil thread. You can't have internal combustion engines without oil...

            I used to have starter clutch problems with my bike when i first started riding it but with more use it got better and better that may be the case with yours.
