I would use fully synthtic too, although when I put it in my Gixxer at 70,000 it sounded as if someone had thrown a handful of nails in it, so I went back to using really cheap car oil, although I did change it every 3000 miles. Engine was still good at 120,000 miles when it was killed by a blind pickup driver.
Oil is cheaper than engine components.
