Motor oil question.

In the 2006 America I use Castral 10w-50 oil.
Many other riders use 20w-50.
Which viscosity do you use?
I change the oil every 8,000 miles and lube the chain every 800 miles with synthetic chain lube.

149,000 miles

Today I hit 149,000 miles on the 2006, Triumph America 8-3-25.
The miles just keep jacking up and up.
I put 2,000 miles the America in one month.
7/8/25 I hit 147,000, therefore I put 2000 miles in less than a month.
I averaged 77 miles a day.
Not bad for a soon to be 69 year old.
I just wish I could stop smoking cigarettes.
But I digress
HAPPY & SAFE RIDING TO ALL

Long tiring ride 150 miles

Hello all, yesterday I rode 150 miles. At the intersection of routes 22 N and 23 east and west there was a sign noted 23 W was closed to follow detours. I thought about and turned west on rt 23 in eastern NY.
The detours sucked twice I went in circles till I finally got to the Taconic Park way in eastern NY. I left at 10:30 am and returned at 3:30pm. It was mainly in the mid eighties for temp. Today I'm exhausted. I will be 69 Aug 19. But I still ride almost every day. I'm retired.
STAY SAFE AND HAPPY RIDING!!
