I do not use Castrol 30 or 40W now as I went to their synthetic oil a couple
years back. But I used it in my first two Tigers, which covered from 1972
thru
1984 if memory serves. I always liked the product, for what that is worth. It
is easy to see when it needs changing, no matter the mileage. I strongly
believe that changing your oil regularly is the life of an engine, so if your
cars overheats severely, I would change the oil as I believe the extreme high
temps helps to break the oil down.

I have used Mobil1 in my Tiger since I rebuilt the drive train in 1986. I use
20-50 since I don't live in the artic and Tigers run hot. I change oil
annually or 12K miles. . The same for my Brit bikes Norton and Triumph.
