Re: Re5 oils
Hi CB
I too use GTX in the engine sump ..... but Rotella DD+40 in the metering tank.
Why?
Because it’s what rotary Nortons use, and so I have plenty to hand. It’s cheap. It burns clean. And nearly 40,000 miles on, the bike is still going!!!

Re: Re5 oils
The club has a stock which it can decant to Club Members ... and if memory serves, it’s £3 a litre.
I have some in Essex.
And so does Dave Weighell in North Yorkshire.
Where are you?

Well, that’s not a million miles away from Chelmsford, if you ever fancy a trip north of the river.
Remember to bring an empty 5 litre can with you.
Are you a club member?

Re: Re5 oils
I have joined but don’t have a news letter yet.
I could ask mark whyman if he has one as he’s seen my post about oils.
If not I’ll have to get me Crystal ball out and give it a clean and see what I can do.
I’ve looked around and you can only get Rotella in 20lts and 209lts
