I know it says 10w-40 is preferred in the manual, but should I use synthetic?
I would go with AIMS oil fully synthetic 10w-40, just like I use in my bikes but it's really up to you. Odds are with sportbikes they will be totaled long before they wear out, I just like to think I will not be crashing and maintain the bike as if it
case bolts starting the clutchran out of time see part 16 for the finishing of the clutch
On this test we manage to damage the engine because of to high oil pressure (10bar)

Suzuki is another member of the “Big Four” from Japan. It began manufacturing motorcycles in 1952 and has become well known around the world. Its off-road bikes and roadracers have won world titles, and its street machines range from the cruiser Boulevard series to the legendary GSX-R series of sportbikes. It, along with Honda, is unique in that the company also builds automobiles.
* 1909 Michio Suzuki founds the Suzuki Loom Company in Hamamatsu, Japan. He builds industrial looms for the thriving Japanese silk industry.
* 1937 To diversify activities, the company experiments with several interesting small car prototypes, but none go into production because the Japanese government declares civilian automobiles “non-essential commodities” at the onset of WWII.
* 1951 After the war, Suzuki (like Honda and others) begins making clip-on motors for bicycles.
* 1953 The Diamond Free is introduced and features double-sprocket wheel mechanism and two-speed transmission.
* 1955 The Colleda COX debuts, a 125cc bike equipped with a steel frame. It features a 4-stroke OHV single-cylinder engine with three-speed transmission.
* 1961 East German star Ernst Degner defects to the west while racing for MZ in the Swedish Grand Prix. He takes MZ’s most valuable secret – knowledge of Walter Kaaden’s expansion chamber designs – to Suzuki.
* 1962 Using MZ’s technology, Suzuki wins the newly created 50cc class in the World Championship. The company will win the class every year until ’67, and win the 125cc class twice in that period, too.
* 1963 U.S. Suzuki Motor Corp. opens in Los Angeles.
* 1965 The T20 is released (aka Super 6, X-6, Hustler). This two-stroke, street-going Twin is one of the fastest bikes in its class. The ‘6’ in its name(s) refers to its six-speed gearbox.
* 1968 The T500 ‘Titan’ is an air-cooled parallel-Twin two-stroke.
* 1970 Joel Robert wins the 250cc World Motocross Championship for Suzuki. This is the first year of a three-year streak.
