Afternoon all, do people generally use full synthetic 10w40 for the C50, just checking if that will be ok for my 79 ZZ. I read in it's manual that it's 10W30, but not seen anyone mention that on here. The Halfords site recommends part synthetic 10w40.

I've added a new fuel tap for £12.99 and new fuel lines. I've put in a new slow jet and moved the need clip one step leaner and so far she's running much better. Hoping to go in for the first MOT since about 1983 soon.
