Recommendations on oils and oil filters/ as well as mirrors

MaverickMike · Oct 7, 2016

Hi all, the time has come for an oil and filter change and as this officially my first Triumph I just wanted to gather some opinions on what is the best oil and oil filter for her. Ps keep in mind i am an everyday rider.

Also to expand on this, what do you all think of end bar mirrors? Are they practical or just aesthetics?

As for best oil any of the oils for sale today should be good, always use the correct grade for your model. I always use Gen Triumph filters oil n air as they are the best and i like bar end mirrors as they are small

I use Silkolene 10/40 fully syn

any Quality bike oil. Semi or fully really makes no odds.
Genuine oil and air filters for me too

For Oil I use Castrol Power 1 10W40. Oil & Air Filter - Triumph OEM ones

Barend Mirrors - I have 3 Pistons and i find them to be of good quality. As Darman said they are small and neat. I don't have to tuck my shoulders in and I think they look sleek
