Help Support Triumph Motorcycle Forum:
No harm at all; but I chose to use fully synthetic. It paid off for me when I had an oil pump failure on one of my 03 T100's.
AN OIL THREAD WHOOOO HOOOO!!!!! 
I can't think of any direct harm in changing, but .........why switch? Your using the cats pajamas all ready.
I like to change my oil in the fall before a six month winter storage period.
Even though I may not have put enough mileage on the bike to warrant a change so soon, I do it anyway.
For that reason I use semi-synthetic Motul. I feel less sad to be throwing away good oil before it's time is up.
If you lived in an area where you can ride all year, I would go with synthetic, but changing back to semi-synthetic will do no harm whatsoever.

you are fine switching between semi and full synth ......just not mineral as the mineral will not mix with synth but will mix with some semi synth .
I bet you love this don't you keys.

I notice that we have judiciously avoided a brand discussion. 
Actually no, Kawartha and I have been discussing brand via PM Sneaky, cheeky Monkey I am

You should have done that here in the thread and thrown it wide open. 
YOU asked for it!

If Total is available in your neck of the woods I can recommend these without reserve
Semi or full, they've got it covered.

I use either Rotella T6 or Amsoil. I use Amsoil in my Bonnie because I can easily find it in 20w50 weight.

Some of my favorite things . . . the above is not in the correct order.
So what were we talking about? Was this a tire thread? I've never used synthetic tires, I do use synthetic oils at every chance I get.
