High mileage and oil consumption
#5
Using 1/2 quart between changes, you may want to consider 10W50, such as Castrol Power 1 RS.
Riding in the east bay area, 20W50 (easier to find) would work.
BTW 10W40 is only rated for up to 104F

I am currently using 10W50 in my Yamaha Bolt, but having difficulty getting 2 more quarts from O'Relllys for next oil change. After that, I plan to run 20W50, since, unlike Ferret, I am not likley to start a ride below 50F.
