Engine oil OEM Honda or Lucas
Personally I run Lucas oil in mine, not just my current zzr600, but even my older vintage bikes when I had them. It isn’t crazy expensive and is high quality.
I have a Fit 2019 and switching from 5w30 to 0w20 improved my mileage from 650 km/tank to 800 km/tank.
I run Lucas in all 3 holes and my bike has been cooler, less noise and shifts smoother than it did when I got it and it had Harley fluids in it.
Honda scooter oil & Castrol, tried and tested ko na. btw yung castrol ang ginagamit ko kapag summer na at sobrang init ng panahon then balik lang ulit sa honda engine oil once tapos na yung mainit na season
It'll be fine, my only argument against it is that you're probably paying too much for that quart. I've always used the Honda GN4 motor oil, buy a gallon for ~$30 when it's time for an oil change and have a little left to spare. Any dealership should carry this, Yamalube is also basically the same thing.
Right now I have some Lucas High Performance, but the brand is relatively immaterial to me. As long as it's a reputable brand and it meets the spec in the manual.
I would do 10k intervals in my Honda Fit but a majority of my driving in that car was highway. I'd also need to add a quart after 7000 miles because of consumption.
Honda's own 0w20. It would feel sluggish at the end of the oil life. You can feel it on the hybrid model
I run Lucas 5w40, it’s more about doing oil changes more often rather than anything else. VW doesn’t have any special materials in the block or heads, it’s just cast iron and aluminum no different than any other.
I used the middle one on an old 200,000KM Porsche Cayman S that was burning oil. It made it worse, smoke started coming out of the engine when the oil cap was off and I felt like the engine would soon die.
