thinking of changing from yamalube to a fully synthetic oil like amsoil interceptor--- does anyone know if it's ok to gradually add the amsoil, or should you empty the yamalube and start fresh? thanks for any input

I have read of many people just switching over without dumping with no issue....

i have changed to fully synthetic from yamalube and havent drained the old stuff. i would recommend it tho' since synthetic and regular oil will not mix.

I did the same thing last year.All i did was run it down a low as i thought was safe then added the synthetic.No troubles.
I drained the oil tank then added the new oil on my viper and never had a problem.

They are compatiable, but I always ran the oil down atleast half way and then added the synthetic.
I made the switch last year and didn't drain a thing. Let me know if you need a local supplier for Amsoil products......
No need to drain it out - just start using Interceptor.

Does the same info hold true for Blue Marble oil? Does anybody have any opinions on the Blue Marble for use in Yamahas?

When I ride locally I go from my fathers house on Highland Lake in Bridgeton or from my house in Gorham. I also trailer to Rangeley/Eustis fairly often, and usually make 1 or 2 trips to Quebec as well.
What about yourself?
