4 Lt Oil Semi Synthetic £12.17
I noticed on the HG site they are selling 4L of Semi-Synth Moto Oil for £12.17 seems like a bargain to me.
I just bought mine from halfords £24 tuh. http://www.hein-gericke.co.uk/shop/p...oducts_id/6457 |

Something that imo you should never skimp on is oil... £30 for 4L of Putoline. Good stuff. Love oil change, its amazing how much quieter the bike gets after (engine noise)...

Re: 4 Lt Oil Semi Synthetic £12.17
We have it on good authority that HG oil is re-branded Motul.
Hardly skimping is it?

My Bike was running so sweet after I changed my oil Definitely don't skimp on oil, I bought Tesco's own brand car oil before I knew about HG's and the bike ran beautifully  Don't run your bike on corn oil

Re: 4 Lt Oil Semi Synthetic £12.17
If it's the same motul stuff I use (5100) then it's an ester based oil. One of the best going.
£22/4 liters from local motor factors. That £12.50 +pnp seems a belting price.

Good advice; new oil is better than used oil - whatever you decide to use.
