Well according to those that should know, YZF600R forum, it should be semi synth 10/40 oil and 10/40 fully synth if your racing. Putoline super Dx4, Castrol GP, Motul 3000 20/50 if it's a hot climate, Rotella 5w-40 with Mobil 1 M110 filter.

Hope that gives you some ideas. Most of this was from the USA so should be just right for you as your in the LONE STAR state. :jossun:

The owner's book shows the following chart:

Recommended engine oil grade: API service SE, SF, SG type or higher.

These are my suggestions:

  • For standard use (semi synthetic): Motul 5100 4T 10W40 or Yamalube 4T 10W50.
  • If you're going to race (fully synthetic): Motul 300V Factory Line 10W40, Mobil1 Racing 4T 10W40 or Castrol Power1 Racing 4T 10W40.
