Hey all-
So my '84 GL1200 had 11,000 or so on the odo when I got it last year. I'm at a smidgen shy of 17K now, and on my second oil change. I'm getting a kinda bindy-notchy feel out of the shifter, like the engine isn't 'liking' the oil. Granted, I didn't have any Spectro Golden or Mobil-One on hand, I used a name-brand 10-30 automotive because I was in a location where fancy stuff wasn't immediately available. I'm thinkin' it probably wants something more special...
What're the 'favorites' for GL1200 owners, and why?
