Valvoline MAXLIFE Synthetic 10-30W every 4-5K (it's for new cars too).
Honda MTF for transmission (every 15K).
LE 607 for gearbox (every 30K).
Does anyone know where to find something in writing from Honda saying that they don't recommend switching to synthetic motor oil before 10K? I've seen several references to this on this website. My owners manual says it's OK to use synthetic oil or dyno, but additives are not recommended.

3k, Mobil 1, pcx filter. 27k miles and it doesn't use any oil, so I'll stick to this plan.
BTW....Target has Mobil1 for 3.99/qt.
