This list goes on and on of high end factory cars that leave the factory (0 miles) with synthetic oil. To quote Smokey Yunick., "On a dyne an engine takes about 30 seconds to break in". If you have over 600 miles, I would go with synthetic in an air-cooled engine, or, a water cooled engine. Makes no difference.


If it makes no difference- why pay the extra for syn?

That being said- why not just stick with the factory Honda oil and filter?
