At the height of the motorcycle and owners of two-wheelers, they ask themselves the eternal questions: how to choose oil for a motorcycle or a scooter.
Qualitative oil must possess such properties that allow to perform all its functions. The main, but not the only function of the oil in the engine is its lubricating properties. Dozens of co-operating metal parts of the engine must be separated by a layer of oil of appropriate thickness and strength. The insufficiency of the olive layer leads to the direct contact of metal - metal, and as a result - to excessive wear of the engine. In modern engine designs, manufacturers tend to reduce frictional forces so as to achieve maximum performance and extend the life of the engine. The main role in this case is motor oil.
Another important function of the oil in the engine is its work as an element that facilitates the removal of heat, which occurs not only as a result of the process of combustion of fuel, but also during friction. Studies show that 5-10% of the heat generated by the engine is formed by friction nodes. Therefore, on most sports, and not only, motorcycles additionally install an oil cooler.
In addition to the above functions, it should be noted that the oil as a result of work in the engine subject to the process of oxidation, aging and mechanical destruction. The products of oxidation and mechanical destruction of oils form sludges, coke and varnishes that can change the physical and chemical properties of oils. In this regard, motor oil must be characterized by stability to oxidation, to withstand the formation of sludge, to keep the engine clean, and also to protect against corrosion. During the engine operation, combustion products and water come into the oil, and in this regard it should also be characterized by stability to foaming.
The surfaces of the walls of the cylinders and piston rings are never perfectly smooth. As a result, there are difficulties with the corresponding pressure in the combustion chamber, as well as the exhaust fumes in the engine crankcase. Here an engine oil serves as an auxiliary part, which serves as an additional seal. The layer of oil on the surface of the cylinder walls, in addition to reducing friction, densifies the combustion chamber.
It should be borne in mind that the oils used in motorcycle engines, due to higher speeds than those in the engines of the automobile, should be different from high-temperature stability, that is, they should not change their parameters at high revs and temperatures.
A preliminary market review indicates that the supply of high-quality olive oil is not so great. From our point of view, the most successful bid is formed by Orlen Oil.
Orlen Oil, a leading manufacturer of lubricants for automotive and other industries, offers its customers a high-quality PLATINUM Rider line designed to ensure the smooth running of your motorcycle engine.

Cars require careful care enough to ride without problems.
     To save you a considerable amount, as preventive measures - it is always cheaper than repair, you should periodically check the 5 basic liquids.
Engine oil
    The first thing you probably learned to do in the car - is to check the oil level in the engine. In most cars you want to open and lift the hood and find the oil dipstick, pull it up and wipe. Repeat the process again with the probe and get the actual level of oil in the engine. If everything is normal - continue safely on his way. If the level is low - you still pour. Depending on the age of the car may be the need to add oil frequently. If you do it too often, we would advise to turn to a professional mechanic for advice.

Do you know how to check the oil level in the engine, and what do we need this test? First of all, you must know that the engine oil check is performed to determine the possibility of further operation and assess the level of need to control the normal operation of the engine.

The oil is used to lubricate rotating and working parts and assemblies in the engine and to reduce friction, which leads to strong znoshuvanosti parts of the motor.
The oil poor, clogged and developed, can bring down your vehicle engine.

Getting tested
The test should be performed on a cold engine. This car should be on a flat horizontal surface. The thought of engine oil is made with a special maslomerom which is a metal probe with marks. This probe is placed at the bottom of the engine.

To test must pull out the dipstick, wipe it dry with a clean cloth, then insert it into the seat, then again need to pull out and see which of the marks is oil. It should be midway between the minimum and maximum marks levels.
If oil is above the maximum level, it means that it is the engine transfused (in excess). This should be avoided because excess oil will get into the crankcase ventilation system that can lead to getting straight to the cylinders.
The minimum oil level is also unwanted, and ride to the lack of oil in the motor car generally contraindicated. A small amount of oil in the engine causes the surface of the cylinder, friction, components and virtually neck crank will be deprived of oil, which quickly lead to engine failure and repair it - it's very expensive.
Fix the lack of oil in the engine can be very simple. To this end, the neck should add a little oil, then wait until it is drained, and control its level probe. If necessary, need to repeat dolyvku. Typically, the number pour oil can reach up to half a liter. The oil dipstick has to be visually clean and clear, free of foreign particles and debris.

 Fill the engine should only manufacturer recommended oil type. If necessary, replace the oil in the engine, the old should be drained and then make a new fill.

On the basis of technological expertise and rigorous laboratory testing, reliable, high quality products are created that meet the requirements, are standardized and tested. Designed with the selected end user in mind, they are thoroughly tested on test beds both in Poland and abroad.
The first period of functioning of a new product in the market is carefully monitored by the technological services.
- Manufacturers of cars and original equipment for vehicles place high demands on oils and lubricants. The quality of our products is confirmed by official recommendations of such firms as Renault, Ford, Citroen, Peugeot, General Motors, Mercedes-Benz or BMW. In establishing the quality of your products it is important to remember that you should rely on credible data that actually constitutes value for customers. In the case of automotive oils, we are talking about honestly performed tests and reliability trials - says Marcin Osika, Head of Research and Development at ORLEN Oil.

In the work on the quality of oils, ORLEN Oil employs knowledge gained in motor sports. - During our racing series, our cars - Porsche 911 - operate in demanding conditions. It is a challenge also for oil. The key issue is thermal stability of oil at high temperatures - says Janusz Czudek, mechanic for the Porsche Platinum GT3 Cup Challenge Central Europe series.

- Platinum oils users benefit from products designed for professionals - this helps ensure their reliability and as a result both the safety and comfort of the driver.
- Racing is all about thrills and adrenaline. For drivers however, this means they must have reliable, proven machines to be able to provide those thrills for their fans and be able to achieve great results. That is why it is worthwhile to use proven operating fluids, including oils – comments Adam Kornacki, TVN Turbo journalist, frequent guest of the Porsche Platinum GT3 Cup Challenge Central Europe series.

    Масло - это расходный материал, который в процессе эксплуатации автомобиля растекается во внутренних элементах двигателя и прогорает. Соответственно, его становится меньше и время от времени его нужно доливать. Это нормальный процесс. Причем, процесс проверки уровня масла и его доливка очень простой. Проверку нужно проводить через 3-5 минут после остановки двигателя (автомобиль должен стоять на ровной поверхности). Выньте измерительный щуп, протрите его насухо тканью без волокон, вставьте щуп обратно и через пару секунд снова выньте. Уровень масла должен находиться между отметками MIN и MAX на щупе. Расстояние между отметками соответствует примерно 1 литру масла. Если его уровень существенно ниже отметки MAX, масло нужно долить. Важно также, чтобы после доливки уровня масла не превышал отметку MAX.

    Если двигатель исправен, расход правильно подобранного моторного масла будет несущественной и, как следствие, часто его доливка не потребуется. А вот если масло не соответствует требованиям производителя, его расход может увеличиться, не говоря уже о том, что сам силовой агрегат будет чувствовать себя не очень комфортно. Но бывает и так, что масло исчезает очень быстро, несмотря на то, что все подобрано верно. Связано это может быть как с износом двигателя, так и с рядом неисправностей, через которые масло стекает из двигателя.
    Одна из самых распространенных причин стремительного исчезновения масла - течи. Все элементы уплотнений двигателя (сальники, прокладки и т. д.) являются потенциальными местами протечек моторного масла. Причины появления течи - износ материала, из которого они сделаны, или его механическое повреждение (например, при неосторожном ремонте).
    Другая причина - угар масла. Диагностировать его можно по появлению сизого дыма в выхлопе, который заметен даже при использовании бензина высокого качества. Если масло выгорает в течение нескольких дней, на кромке выхлопной трубы появляется вязкая пленка темного цвета. Причин чаду несколько, и они могут быть определены только в автосервисе при разборке двигателя. Но прежде чем отдавать автомобиль в ремонт при обнаружении одного из вышеперечисленных признаков, стоит обратить внимание на 2 фактора: изменение стиля вождения и смена марки используемого моторного масла. Если угар стал заметен только после того, как двигатель длительное время работал на повышенных оборотах, и впоследствии не проявлялся, скорее всего, причин для беспокойства нет. Чем выше обороты, тем выше температура движущихся элементов мотора. Соответственно, масло теряет густоту, большее его количество остается в цилиндрах и сильнее выгорает. Что же касается смены марки масла, то появление чада в данном случае вполне нормальное явление в течение первых 2-3 дней. Если потом она исчезла - все в порядке. Дело в том, что пакеты присадок, используемые в разных марках масла, могут вступать в реакцию между собой, поскольку часть старого масла всегда остается в двигателе даже после его тщательной промывки. Результатом этой реакции иногда становится временное разжижение масла и повышенное выгорание.
