This is actually my first v twin bike I've ever owned, I've only had parallel twins and a single cylinder bike before. The Kawasakis I've had I just used Kawasaki synthetic oil in all of them. And yea I tried to get out for another ride today but work around my house and my aunts house dragged on longer than hoped for.I've used Mobile 1 on all my V-twin bikes with great success. Glad you got out for a ride.
