Why I'm switching BACK to Honda oil
#9
Oh no? We think Honda might be right about using their oil? I cannot see it. Obviously I know more than those engineers and have always used automatic transmission fluid, cut with water 50/50 with some added to the fuel for good measure. Someday I'm going to buy the shop manual and rewrite it for them.

"I know that's right".

I have sweating around the upper fins only on the left side of the engine. You can see in the pic after only a warm-up and 10mile ride residue on the fins. It will make its way down to the 2nd or 3rd fin and work its way around the side to the rear of the fins. One other member has had the same problem in the exact same spot. Could have been a bad run in manufacturing. I live with it for now since its not really a problem YET!!!

Edit: I use only Honda 10-30 full synthetic oil, don't think the oil you use created this problem.

You know, that actually looks like auto transmission fluid...are you sure...?
