Hi thumper

I'd suggest semi is all you need (certainly all I will use), and the extra cost of full isn't justified for road use (track perhaps). :)

There's been several reports and postulations about this.
The long and the short of it is there have been reports saying fully synth can cause clutch problems (ie lurching) but non of the reports say anything bad about semi.
I've used both on my storm in the past and found very little difference between them and had no problems. Just keep changing it regulary. Old dirty oil is the real engine killer.
