    Default oil weights

    IMHO ..in the U.S. I don't think BRP can make a case against 5W , 10W, 20W, 50 W OR 100W oil ..... because BRP MUST prove that what ever OIL is in the Spyder .....is what CAUSED THE DAMAGE - PERIOD ....... So now you can continue Speculating about for another 50 posts ..................Mike

    Of course it can. Using the right words is important.
    But in this specific case unless you have some actual evidence that it IS or has been a problem your assertion is just wild speculation.

    And has been pointed out by several people, in the US the burden is on the MANUFACTURER to prove that whatever was done actually caused the failure......if they try to deny a warranty claim.

    So......what exactly do you think you are accomplishing by continuing to harp on something that likely doesn't apply ???

    Why are you harping. I've laid it to rest. If you read my last post. But that not in your nature as I have seen your post to others. Now I'm done.

    he FTC’s action against Hyundai is a victory for consumer freedom. As we remind consumers at amsoil.com/freedom...

    • It is illegal to tie warranty coverage to whichever brand of parts or lubricants you use. Manufacturers that do so must provide the parts or lubricants free of charge
    • You have the freedom to choose how you protect your vehicles and equipment, including use of products formulated for extended drain intervals
    • Manufacturers can’t deny warranty coverage without showing the aftermarket part or lubricant caused a failure

    My dealer in Canada had a Amsoil banner on there wall. I made comment about it as I use Amsoil in everything I run. The dealer said BRP told them if they are selling BRP products they are to sell only there products including BRP oil. The dealer still recommends Amsoil over BRP oil.
    When I rode Harleys, Harley said DO NOT USE SYNTHETIC OIL as it would destroy the engine. My dealer recommended Amsoil. Then when Harley came out with there own synthetic oil, they recommend ONLY use synthetic. Go figure.

    Default I read the whole thread lol

    When I change my oil (once a year no matter the miles) I use Amsoil 100% synthetic metric motorcycle oil, SAE 10W-40 JASO MA/MA2. Thanks for the overview.
