One thing I think we can all agree on is that "newbie to a carbohydrate" is an awesome phrase.

Just one thought - some (contemporary) engine oils have additional lubricants in them that are problematic when using a wet clutch. I'm sure that you could find the specifics in the posts regarding oils, but if you know what kind of oil is in it, that maybe worthwhile to share.Comment

Those oils will have an "Energy Conserving" designation in the API 'donut' on the rear label. I have not seen any of those oils in a viscosity over 30w. Since it is recommended to run 10w-40 in our bikes that should not be a problem. Regardless of viscosity, though, do NOT run any oil that has the "Energy Conserving" label on it.
