Re: [ST] Initial oil change

According to what I've read and what my dealer has told me. I'd keep my mouth shut about having used regular oil.  My understanding is that the Triumph factory warranty requires that you use the Mobil 1T oil in all oil changes.  Should you have any engine problems that could be traced back to the oil, and it comes out that you did not use the Mobil 1T for all oil changes, Triumph may decide that your warranty was voided when you used the regular oil.  Just a word of caution.  I do take my dealers warnings very seriously.  I've known them for quite some time and so far they have always been straight with me.
