The oil issue is true but only if you have a dirty engine. I switched to synth and the bike runs perfect. Crappy oil will cause sludge that builds around seals and while the seals still go bad, the sludge stills seals things until the worst time.

If you leak of a good synth oil, you have bad seals.
