    Cheers, Joe, many thanks for posting...I’m thinking ahead of myself a bit, but I’ve also got a hankering for a Triumph stable; the Bonneville is on the list, especially after looking at some of the pictures here on the forum last night. I absolutely love the brown leather seat on this forum member’s bike!

    If you go to 'search forums' on the banner above, and tap in Westway Lubricants it will (should) bring up a thread to which Westway themselves replied.
    I actually spoke to them before I ordered my oil, just to re-assure myself. Have a look to see what they said. It may be of use to you.
    It does seem strange that some oils suit a particular bike better than others. My Trident must be a bit choosy, whereas my Daytona 955i, when I had it, didn't seem to give a bugger what oil it got as long as it was made to do the job!

    Thanks, Steve...will definitely take a look, they’re sounding very much the go-to supplier for oils!
    Have a good evening,
    Stuart
