Wikipedia says:
Synthetic oil is a lubricant consisting of chemical compounds that are artificially made (synthesized). Synthetic lubricants can be manufactured using chemically modified petroleum components rather than whole crude oil, but can also be synthesized from other raw materials.
Semisynthetic is a blend of mineral oil and full synthetic oil.


Full synthetic oil offers longer drain intervals and reduced degradation in its properties. It can easily last 5k km on bike (but have to check level and quality regularly).

You could go for Bosch Symphony/Roots Windtone or for milder tones there is Fazer OEM pair. You need to add relay to take off the load from stock electricals.

Fazer works without relay. Pulsar might need one and they are harsh [;)]
Thanks for your time bro.. How about your Barricade how many KMS you completed with your Yamalube Sporty Premimum.. I just completed about 2.5K and personally i am not satisfied with the performance i am planning to go back to Motul.. How about you??

Some 1.02L km. Unfortunately, had to drain at low km, now on Yamalube or Shell mineral, which I am not sure of. Changed timing chain and valves and had to change oil then. Will switch back to Sporty. Gotta try once more.
