What if there are better options ....

I have what the dealer recommended, but for those hydros, I want the absolute best.... or better.

After break-in (100 or 50?) the 2 qts each will be in there a long time... I don't think I can go wrong with Mobil1 20W50 V-Twin .... motor (instead of Kawi branded) and the hydros get hot... so in them too

Fwiw .... I have a 5gal jug of Castrol GTX 20W50 for my first Scag with HG Hydros from 16 years ago. That was what HG used and recommended back then...

I don't have 'em here .... I'll get the specs. The HG China filters (same age) .... at least they aren't new China .... look dinky, but I will use them !

Thanks Mike!
