I use Rotella 15w-40 in every off-road and on-road vehicle I have. Bikes, my wifes ATV and even my Van. I've been using Rotella for many years and have never had one single problem. It's less expensive than most Motorcycle brands.

Re: "Pit bikes for dummies" must know info

Great info on the Newbies, looking for our first pit bike. I have a 5 yr old son who rides a CRF 50 I ride a CRF 450 but its so hard to ride with on the 450 so I started looking at the new KLX 110L which runs about 2700.00 OTD, then started looking at some of the Chinese pit bikes which look very cool but are they any good? Can anyone give me their thoughts on brands or is just to stick with a factory brand/

Thanks for any help!
