just wondered how good this oil is..currently runnin rock oil racing but with another price increase on the horizon,,is the sip oil a good enough oil to use on a standard ts1 engine,,,cheers steve..

Only heard positive comments about it. But never used, here in Italy motul 710 comes cheaper than Sip oil, so never thought to buy it.

Eden put a thread up a while ago about Groundsman Rock oil.He tested it at his iron 240 Bretta.
There are quite a few on this now,i use it in all bikes and it works out at £2.60ltr depending on where and how you buy it.Its a semi synthetic.Ive got a 25ltr drum in the garage.

I've been using it in a tuned TS1 and tuned RB for about two years now. Can't fault it.

I don't know what the situation is now, but it was never entirely clear if it was a semi or a fully synthetic. I think it lost something in the translation.

I've been using the SIP oil for the past few months or so in a TS1. Think I've used 7 or 8 pots. Not had any problems at all although I haven't had the top end off to look. I think it worked out about £4.60 a litre.

I have been using SIP synthetic formula oil in a TS 230 thrashing it over the coast to coast last year and also used it for rallies around UK and Europe this year, not had a problem with the oil, I have striped the top end down a couple of times just for a look, all good used all 12ltrs of the stuff

Used it in my reed-valved Mugello and others before that, Tidy stuff,
Get it from Dai at On Small Wheels
