Default oil question

Hi
bought this oil the other day from a local car shop,i wanted a good brand oil so asked the guy which oil to choose,he said that this one is just as good as the top brands and half the price £8.99
He went on to say how great it was and how all his customers who own motorbikes use it so it must be good

Anyway i bought it but afterwards i was a little unsure whether to put it in.
Thats why im asking you knowledgeable people

cheers dannytwo

Yep... oil is the lifeblood of the engine.. Motul 300v 15-50 Fully Synth, changed every 5k. No point in risking the engine for the sake of £20 or so quid..

hmmm, nice.

You did say for your lawnmower didn't you

Stick with the likes of Silkolene, Motul, Castrol, Mobil1 etc would be my advice.

Cheers
Simon
