[dukbil]

Hi all a newbie here just got a 05 450 fse last week end only had 88 miles on it rode a little great bike.Ready for oil change any suggestion on brands dino or synthetic. Thanks

Not sure what viscosity is recommended for that year bike - but, I would use shell rotella 15w40 and change it often. Shell rotella syn 5w40 is another good choice. Both should be readily available in gallon jugs in moses lake - it is a diesel rated truck/tractor oil. They sell it at walmart as well...

Use dino for the first 5-600 miles then whatever you want.
