Which oil to use

Not much left to talk about then?
Yes the ATIC web site carries lots of information about tyres etc, but
it does not give opinions and feelings.
VARADERO ? why should we not discuss a beach in Cuba? :-)
Keep smokin, those cigars.

Subject: (XRV) The Rules
Hi all !
Just something to read for you :-)))
May be seen also on http://www.atic.org/xrv-list/rules.html
-----------------------------------------------------------
Rules
These rules are regularly updated. They developed out of our
experiences
These rules are regularly updated. They developed out of our
experiences
and so they are neither complete nor they will ever be :-)
* Every author ist responsible for the articles he posts
* Topics for the mailinglist are:
+ Technical questions& answers to the bike
+ Tips and tricks for a better operation
+ Reports about special problems and experiences
+ Information about accessories (no advertising !)
+ References to special events
* NO topics for the mailinglist are:
+ Flames in general
+ Curious stories about your latest crash
+ Virus warnings - there are better sources for such kind of
information
+ Discussions why the XXX is the better bike - We know the
truth
...
* OFF topic are items discussed again and again (and explained in
the
FAQ or depending on your personal opinion) like:
+ Which windscreen to use
+ Which tyres to use
+ Using leaded or unleaded fuel
+ Which oil to use
* There are alternative sources on the web for the following topics
and
so they are not welcome here:
+ GPS
+ Varadero
* The preferred language is english. If you have problems with a
technical term, give it in your mother tongue and add an english
description of what you mean.
* Traffic has to be reduced as much as possible. Note that some of
the
recipents may have limited storage capacities. So keep your
postings
short and answer via private mail if the topic is of no public
interest. The original sender can post a summary of the answers
he
got some days later.
* Quote correctly. If you copy only the relevant parts from the
original message, reading becomes much easier. If your mail
contains
10% or less of new information something is wrong.
* Please use a sensible subject. Otherwise people can't locate
articles
using the database of old postings. Subjects like "some
questions"
don't make sense !
* NO attachements at all. If you want to publish a scan or if you
have
a big article, contact me via email and IŽll put your data on the
XRV
Homepage if possible. This is also valid for attached HTML mails
or
plaform specific text documents (like M$ word files).
* If you want to unsubscribe from the list, you have to you use the
automatic unsubscription. IŽm not willing to manage manual
unsubscriptions via email every day !
* Before posting a question, check out the database of old postings,
if
it wasnŽt answered before. Additionally you may find solutions
for
your problem in the Database/FAQ
* If you are on vacation and your provider limits the size of your
incoming mailbox (e.g. compuserve), you have to unsubscribe,
otherwise all your mail bounces back and makes me quite unhappy.
* If your system refuses to accept messages for more than 5 days I
reserve the right to remove you from the list without any notice
to
avoid abnormal consumption of ressources. In this case you can
simply
resubscribe when the problem at your side is fixed.
* Don't send any testmails to the list! If you think that there is
a
problem, contact us.
