[QUOTE="Jonathan Lambley, post: 165082, member: 3108"] The old oil question..... On the advice of Glyn Johnson, who has built a few Vincents in his time, I use Rock Oil TRM 20W60 in my B Rapide. I was told not to use any other synthetic oil as this was developed by Rock Oil for racing v-twins. It is very expensive but Rock Oil themselves say it is spot on for the Rapide. Having said all that, the most important thing is to change your oil regularly, the make of oil is probably secondary but that is just my opinion and I have no qualifications or expertice on engine oils.

Verification
The Series 'A' Rapide was known as the '********' Nightmare?
