synthetic oil

I want to start using synthetic oil in my 780. The oil tank has some Yamalube semi synthetic in it now. Is it ok to mix synthetic and a small amount of semi synthetic? Im not shure and I will probably drain it first. Any recomdations on brand name , I was going to try Klotz or Ammsoil...

I'd drain it first. I use the Klotz and love it. It smells like Nitromethane when it burns!

Chose Torco

I decided to go with Torco 100% synthetic . I paid 25.00/gal. locally. I did some research, and liked what I heard about the oil.
