what engine oil should I use for my Ducati Monster?

Well, there are a lot of oils out there and if you ask the same question of 10 Ducati Monster owners you'll probably get 10 different answers. But this is my blog, so here goes....

Lets start with the owners manual: Ducati recommend that you use SHELL Advance Ultra 4, SAE 20w-50. In practice there's not a lot of difference between quality automotive oils and motorcycle specific oils. In which case it is safer to stick with what your manual tells you.

A far more important point is how frequently you change your oil.
