might be a silly question but i will need a couple of 1ltr bottles of oil to take with me on my trip in june and wonder if anyone knows where to get the aforementioned 1ltr bottles from? preferably in the london area so i can collect.

Steve - if you pop into Warr's Harley Davidson in Chelsea they'll do you a good 20w50 mineral oil in litre bottles. Just over 4 quid a pop I think.

My BCR ran just fine on it.

Why not buy 4 or 5 litre bottle (as it is cheaper overall) and then decanter into a 1 litre bottle.

i actually have 2 x 5ltrs of valvoline in my kitchen right now but no 1ltr bottles. also i don't want to take the risk of an already opened bottle leaking while in my tail pack. for the sake of 8 quid i'll take a couple with me and just top up after each 1000 miles is done. i reckon it will be a 3000 mile trip so 2 used while traveling and maybe last till i get home or look for one on the way back.

Hein Gericke also sell 1ltr Bottles of 20/50, also about 4 squid a go, just had a look at the bottle I bought from HG recently, funnily enough says For Hardly Movingsons on the bottle.
