What engine oil do you use - 2006 Suzuki GSX 1300 R Hayabusa

It can be difficult to determine the source of an oil leak, especially if the valve cover has already been replaced. Here are some common causes of oil leaks in vehicles:

1. Engine gasket leaks: Engine gaskets can leak oil, causing oil to seep out onto the engine and surrounding components.
2. Engine oil seals: Engine oil seals can become worn or damaged, causing oil to leak from the engine.
3. Engine oil cooler: Engine oil coolers can develop leaks, causing oil to leak out of the engine and onto the manifold.
4. Engine oil pan: Engine oil pans can develop leaks, causing oil to leak out of the engine and onto the ground.
5. Engine oil filter: Engine oil filters can develop leaks, causing oil to leak out of the engine and onto the manifold.

If you are unable to locate the source of the oil leak, it is recommended to have a professional mechanic inspect the vehicle

Engine oil: Drain or extract and replenish; renew oil filter Engine oil: Drain or extract engine oil ? Chapter. Renewing oil filter ? Chapter. Replenishing engine oil ? Chapter. Draining or extracting engine oil Special tools and workshop equipment required t Used oil collection and extraction unit -V.A.G 1782- t Oil spill cloth -VAS 6204/1- Draining or extracting engine oil Carry out the following procedure: > Note
t For engines with standing oil filter the oil filter must be renewed before changing the engine oil. When removing the filter element a valve is opened, the oil in the filter housing automatically flows into crankcase. t If the engine oil is drained and not extracted with an oil extractor, replace drain plug. This prevents leaks. t Observe disposal regulations! - Extract engine oil using used oil collection and extraction unit -V.A.G 1782-. or - Remove oil drain plug. - Let engine oil drain. > Note
t The oil drain plug is fitted with a secure seal, therefore the oil drain plug must always be renewed. t Observe disposal regulations! - Screw in new oil drain plug with seal hand-tight. - Replenish engine oil, specification ? Chapter. Engine oil capacity: "Power unit" ? Power unit; Rep. Gr.17"Lubrication; oil capacities" or ? Maintenance table.

t Torque specifications must not be exceeded. t Excess torque can cause leaks in the area of the oil drain plug or even damage. Renewing oil filter Renewing oil filter, 1.4 l and 1.6 l injection engines > Note
t Prevent engine oil from dripping onto components in engine compartment. t Oil new O-rings before installing. t Observe disposal regulations! Renewing oil filter, 1.4 land 1.6 l engine Carry out the following procedure: alt="W00-10211"> - Unscrew cover cap -1- with socket insert 36 mm AF and remove cover with oil filter insert -4- and valve -5-. - Renew O-ring -2- of cover cap and O-ring -3- of valve. - Renew used oil filter element with new filter element. > Note
Observe disposal regulations! - Tighten cover cap -1-. Cover cap torque setting: 25 Nm. Replenishing engine oil Oil specifications ? Chapter Engine oil capacities: "Power unit" ? Power unit; Rep. Gr.17"Lubrication; oil capacities" or ? Maintenance table. General notes > Note
Observe disposal regulations! - After replenishing with oil, wait at least 3 minutes and then check oil level. - Pull out dipstick, wipe with a clean cloth and push dipstick in again to limit stop. - Pull dipstick out again and read oil level. alt="N01-10183"> For dipstick as illustrated: A - Oil must not be replenished. B - Oil may be replenished. It may happen that the oil level afterwards is in the -A- region. C - Oil must be replenished. It is sufficient if the oil level is in the -B- region (hatched area) afterwards. There is a danger of damaging the catalytic converter if the oil level is above the -A- marking. - If oil level is below -C- marking, top-up oil to -A- marking. alt="N01-10255">

Engine Oil Recommendations

Use 4-stroke oil, or equivalent high detergent, premium

quality motor oil certified to meet or exceed U.S. automobile

manufacturer's requirements for API Performance

Class SF or better. SAE 15W-40 is recommended for general,
all-temperature use.

NOTICE

Engine oil is a major factor affecting engine performance

and service life. Non-detergent and 2-stroke engine oils will

damage engine and are not recommended.

• Be sure to use engine oils specified under "Engine Oil

Recommendations."

It is very important to maintain proper level of engine oil to

keep engine in good running condition.

• Check engine oil level prior to each use. Refill engine

oil if oil level is low.

FIGURE 17: Recommended Oil Viscosity

Crankcase pressure can cause hot engine oil to

spray out of engine fill hole. Hot engine oil can

cause severe burns.

• ALWAYS stop engine before removing the oil fill cap.

15W-40
