Last updated: 15 November 2026

Quick answer: The best engine oil for a 70cc bike in Pakistan is a 20W-40 rated JASO MA, the grade on Atlas Honda's CD 70 specification sheet, at 0.6 litre per change. On 12 November 2026 a correct 700-750 ml bottle cost Rs 750 to Rs 1,060 at Bike Markaz; Atlas Honda's own 700 ml pack was Rs 860.

Every outside price below was read on the page linked next to it on 12 November 2026. Bike Markaz sells engine oil, so we have an interest; that is why every grade and quantity here comes from Atlas Honda's own documents, not from us, and why we name the cheaper correct bottle as readily as the dearer one.

Key takeaways

  • Grade: 20W-40, API SG / JASO MA, for the Honda CD 70, CD 70 Dream and Pridor. That is printed in Atlas Honda's specification sheets and Operation Guide.
  • Quantity: 0.6 litre at an oil change for the CD 70 and Dream, 0.8 litre after an engine rebuild. The Pridor takes 0.7 litre at a change. A 700 ml pack covers a CD 70 with a little left for top-ups.
  • Interval: first change at 500 km, then every 2,000 km, from Atlas Honda's CD 70 maintenance record. Clean the centrifugal oil filter and screen every 12,000 km.
  • Chinese 70s (United, Road Prince, Unique, Super Power): we found no maker's manual online. Mechanics fill 20W-40 or 20W-50; fill to the dipstick, not to the bottle.
  • Cheapest correct change at our prices: Rs 750 (NGL V-Perf 20W-40). The closest match to Atlas Honda's own oil: Rs 870 (Atlas Honda 20W-40, 750 ml, JASO MA).

Best Engine Oil for a 70cc Bike: Our Top 5

"70 ka oil konsa dalein?" Any oil that meets three conditions: grade 20W-40, rating JASO MA or MA2 on the label, and a pack near 700 ml. All five below meet them, except the fifth, which is a 20W-50 for older engines where your mechanic allows the thicker grade. They are ranked by how closely they match Atlas Honda's specification, then by price.

Table: the best engine oil for a 70cc bike at Bike Markaz, prices on 12 November 2026.

Rank Oil Price Pack Grade Rating Best for
1 Atlas Honda Engine Oil 20W40 750ml Rs 870 750 ml 20W-40, mineral API SG / JASO MA The exact rating on Atlas Honda's sheet
2 Caltex Havoline 4T 20W40 700ml Rs 900 700 ml 20W-40, mineral API SG / JASO MA2 Same grade, tighter clutch rating
3 ZIC M5 4T 20W40 700ml Rs 1,060 700 ml 20W-40, semi-synthetic API SL / JASO MA2 A newer API rating for Rs 160 more
4 NGL V-Perf 4T 20W40 700ml Rs 750 700 ml 20W-40, mineral API SD / JASO MA2 The lowest price for the right grade
5 Kixx Ultra 4T 20W50 700ml Rs 1,390 700 ml 20W-50, semi-synthetic API SL / JASO MA2 Older, worn engines where 20W-50 is allowed

1. Atlas Honda Engine Oil 20W-40, 750 ml (Rs 870). The label carries API SG and JASO MA, which is word for word what Atlas Honda's CD 70 sheet asks for. The 750 ml bottle covers the 0.6 litre change and leaves enough for a top-up or two between changes. If you want one oil and no thinking, this is it.

2. Caltex Havoline 4T 20W-40, 700 ml (Rs 900). Same grade and the same API SG, with JASO MA2 instead of MA. MA2 is a tighter band inside MA, so an MA2 oil meets the MA requirement. Our Havoline engine oil guide covers the rest of the Havoline range.

3. ZIC M5 4T 20W-40, 700 ml (Rs 1,060). A semi-synthetic with API SL, a newer service category than SG. On a 72cc air-cooled engine changed every 2,000 km you will not feel the difference, but if you ride long hot stretches or your bike is past its prime, it is the most oil for the money in the right grade.

4. NGL V-Perf 4T 20W-40, 700 ml (Rs 750). The right grade and a JASO MA2 clutch rating at the lowest price on our shelf. Its API SD rating is older than the others'; Atlas Honda asks for SG, so pick one of the first three if you want to match the sheet exactly. It is our honest pick for a tight budget, not our top pick.

5. Kixx Ultra 4T 20W-50, 700 ml (Rs 1,390). Not the maker's grade. It is here because many mechanics put 20W-50 into older 70s that run noisy and hot in June, and if that is your choice, this is a semi-synthetic JASO MA2 one. Read the 20W-40 vs 20W-50 section before you switch.

What about the ZIC M3 20W-50 at Rs 840? It is a 700 ml mineral 20W-50 with API SG, and our listing shows no JASO rating, so it did not make the list for a wet-clutch 70. The whole shelf is on our engine oil page.

Honda CD 70 Engine Oil: Grade, Quantity and Price

Atlas Honda publishes the CD 70's oil specification in two places, both on its CD 70 page, checked on 12 November 2026:

  • The CD 70 Specifications PDF, "Service data" page: recommended engine oil SAE 20W-40 (API-SG / JASO-MA); engine oil capacity 0.6 L at an oil change and 0.8 L when the engine is opened and rebuilt.
  • The CD 70 Operation Guide, page 22: "always use Atlas Honda genuine engine oil", recommended multigrade SAE 20W-40 (API-SG / JASO-MA), and a note that a multigrade oil suits almost every season.

The CD 70 Dream specification sheet gives the same grade and the same 0.6 L / 0.8 L figures.

Table: Honda CD 70 engine oil facts from Atlas Honda's own documents, checked 12 November 2026.

Why a 700 ml bottle for a 0.6 litre engine? Some oil always stays in the engine and some clings to the bottle, and the 100 ml left over is your top-up. Atlas Honda itself sells the CD 70's oil in a 700 ml pack. Pour in about 600 ml, check the dipstick, and add a little at a time until the level sits between the marks. Do not empty the whole bottle in just because it is there.

Warranty. The CD 70 page makes Atlas Honda genuine engine oil, changed at an authorised dealer, a condition of the warranty, and excludes defects caused by non-genuine oil. During the warranty period, let the dealer do the change with Atlas Honda's oil. After it, any quality 20W-40 JASO MA oil is correct.

How to check the oil level on a CD 70

Atlas Honda's Operation Guide (page 22) gives seven steps, in our words:

Rider wiping the dipstick of a red 70cc commuter motorcycle on its main stand on level ground in bright daylight, checking CD 70 engine oil level

  1. If the engine is hot, let it stand for 3 to 5 minutes.
  2. Switch the ignition off and wait 2 to 3 minutes more.
  3. Put the bike on its main stand on firm, level ground.
  4. Unscrew the oil filler cap with its dipstick and wipe the dipstick clean.
  5. Put it back in without screwing it down.
  6. Take it out and check that the oil is between the upper and lower marks.
  7. Refit the cap carefully.

Checking on the side stand gives a false low reading, which is how many 70s end up overfilled.

How Often Should You Change Oil in a 70cc Bike?

Atlas Honda's maintenance record for the CD 70 lists engine oil changes at 500 km, 1,000 km, 3,000 km, 5,000 km, 7,000 km, 9,000 km and on every 2,000 km to 19,000 km. In plain words: first change at 500 km, then every 2,000 km. The three free services fall at 1,000 km (or one month), 3,000 km (or three months) and 5,000 km (or five months). The same page asks for the centrifugal oil filter and the oil filter screen to be cleaned every 12,000 km; the CD 70 has no paper oil filter to replace.

When to change sooner than 2,000 km:

  • Dusty roads, unpaved streets or construction areas.
  • Stop-go city traffic in June and July, where an air-cooled engine sits hot at idle.
  • Delivery work with long hours and a full load.
  • Oil that looks milky after riding through standing water in the monsoon.

What a 70cc oil change costs per year. At 12,000 km a year, a CD 70 needs six changes. With our cheapest correct oil that is 6 × Rs 750 = Rs 4,500 a year; with Atlas Honda's own 700 ml pack, 6 × Rs 860 = Rs 5,160; with the ZIC M5, 6 × Rs 1,060 = Rs 6,360. Labour, if a mechanic does it, is extra.

Honda Pridor Engine Oil: Same Grade, More Oil

The Pridor is a 97.1 cc bike, not a 70, but riders cross-shop it with the CD 70 and the oil question is the same. Atlas Honda's Pridor specification sheet (checked 12 November 2026) lists:

  • Recommended oil: SAE 20W-40, API SG / JASO MA.
  • Capacity: 0.7 L when drained at a change, 0.9 L after the engine is rebuilt.

The Pridor's maintenance record on its Atlas Honda page has the same 500 km first change and 2,000 km steps as the CD 70. A 700 ml pack is exactly one change; the Atlas Honda Engine Oil 20W40 750ml at Rs 870 leaves 50 ml spare. More on the bike in our Honda Pridor price guide.

Chinese 70cc Bikes (United, Road Prince, Unique, Super Power): Same Oil?

The United US 70, Road Prince RP 70, Unique UD 70 and Super Power SP 70 use engines built on the CD 70's layout: single-cylinder, four-stroke, air-cooled, with a wet clutch that runs in the engine oil. We looked for an owner's manual or specification sheet from each maker on 12 November 2026 and found none online that states an oil grade or capacity. So what follows is workshop practice, not a maker's specification:

  • Grade: mechanics fill 20W-40 or 20W-50. Either is a correct type of oil if the label shows JASO MA or MA2.
  • Quantity: treat it like a CD 70. Buy a 700 ml pack, pour in about 600 ml, then top up to the dipstick.
  • Interval: most riders and dealers use the CD 70's 2,000 km. If your bike came with a service book, its figure wins.
  • Check the book that came with the bike. A new United, Road Prince, Unique or Super Power comes with a warranty or service booklet from the dealer; if it names an oil grade, follow it.

Our Chinese bikes price guide covers these brands, and the spec pages for the United US 70, Road Prince RP 70, Unique UD 70 and Super Power SP 70 list their engines and prices.

20W-40 vs 20W-50 in a 70cc Engine: Which Is Better?

Both numbers describe thickness. The "20W" part, the same in both, is the cold-start rating, and it is fine for the plains of Pakistan all year. The second number is thickness at running temperature, and a 50 is one class thicker than a 40. Mobil's own data sheet for its Super Moto range shows the gap in figures: its 20W-40 is about 15 cSt at 100°C and its 20W-50 about 20.5 cSt, roughly a third thicker when hot (Mobil Pakistan data sheet, checked 12 November 2026).

Table: 20W-40 vs 20W-50 in a 70cc bike.

Question 20W-40 20W-50
Is it Atlas Honda's grade for the CD 70 and Pridor? Yes No, one class thicker
Will it harm a CD 70 in summer? No No; it is simply thicker than asked for
When does it make sense? Always, on a healthy engine An old, high-mileage engine that runs noisy at hot idle or uses a little oil
Will it fix a smoking engine? No No; blue smoke means rings or valve seals
Price at Bike Markaz, 700-750 ml from Rs 750 Rs 840 to Rs 1,390

Our view: use 20W-40 on any healthy 70cc engine, because that is what the maker lists and it costs no more. Heat is handled by changing the oil on time, not by going thicker. The full argument, with every bike's grade, is in our 10W40 vs 20W50 engine oil guide.

Never fit a JASO MB oil. Some 10W-40 bottles are scooter oils rated JASO MB, made for automatic scooters with a dry clutch. In a geared 70 the clutch can slip on them. Our clutch plate price guide explains why the CD 70's clutch, which you never pull with a lever, still cares about the oil.

Mineral or Semi-Synthetic for a 70cc Bike?

Atlas Honda's own CD 70 oil is a mineral 20W-40. A mineral oil changed every 2,000 km is all a 72cc air-cooled commuter needs. A semi-synthetic like the ZIC M5 holds up better in heat and stop-go traffic, and it is a reasonable spend if you ride long hours. A fully synthetic oil adds cost a 2,000 km interval cannot use; our Liqui Moly engine oil guide works through that sum and finds it costs a 70cc rider thousands of rupees a year for no gain.

A better oil does not stretch the interval. Change at 2,000 km whatever is in the engine.

What other sellers asked on Daraz the same day (search results, 12 November 2026): Havoline 4T 20W-40 700 ml from Rs 899 to Rs 1,796 across eight sellers; a 700 ml pack listed as "Honda Atlas oil CD70" at Rs 830; and ZIC M5 20W-40 700 ml from Rs 1,400 to Rs 2,103. The same bottle can cost twice as much from one seller as from another, so compare before you pay, and never pay more than the price printed on the pack.

Mobil for a 70? Mobil's Pakistani marketer lists its bike oils only in 20W-50 and 10W-40, so there is no Mobil 20W-40 for a CD 70. Our Mobil oil price guide has the prices, and the Kixx engine oil guide covers Kixx. Every brand side by side is in the bike engine oil price guide.

Genuine vs Copy: How to Tell Before You Pour

Refilled and fake oil is sold in Pakistan's parts markets, and the cheap 700 ml packs for 70s are the most copied size. Nobody can prove an oil genuine by eye, but these checks catch most fakes:

  • The cap seal is intact and breaks with a click when you open it. A cap that spins freely or a ring already cracked means someone opened it.
  • The label is clean and straight, with the grade, the API and JASO ratings, a batch or date code, and the maker's name printed, not stuck on.
  • The price is close to the pack price. Atlas Honda's 700 ml is Rs 860 on its own store. A "genuine Atlas Honda" 700 ml far below that is old stock, a clearance, or not genuine.
  • The oil looks right. New mineral oil is clear amber. Dark, cloudy or gritty oil straight from a "new" bottle is used or contaminated.
  • Buy from a seller who gives a bill. If the clutch starts slipping or the engine runs hot after a change, the bill is your only way back.

Every bottle we sell arrives sealed, with its rating printed on it, and goes out at or below the price printed on the pack.

Changing the Oil on a 70cc Bike Yourself

Used engine oil draining from the sump of a 70cc commuter motorcycle into a metal pan on a clean workshop floor, during a 70cc bike engine oil change

A CD 70 oil change takes about 20 minutes with a spanner, a drain pan and a rag:

  1. Ride for a few minutes so the oil is warm and flows out fully, then switch off.
  2. Put the bike on the main stand on level ground and the pan under the engine.
  3. Remove the filler cap, then the drain bolt underneath the crankcase. Let it drain completely.
  4. Check the drain bolt's sealing washer. Refit the bolt with the washer and tighten it firmly but gently; the crankcase is soft aluminium and the thread strips easily.
  5. Pour in about 600 ml of fresh 20W-40 JASO MA oil.
  6. Refit the cap, start the engine for a minute, switch off, wait 2 to 3 minutes and check the dipstick as Atlas Honda describes above. Top up to between the marks.
  7. Take the old oil to a workshop that collects it. Do not pour it into a drain.

If the bike is still under warranty, skip this and let the dealer do it with Atlas Honda's oil.

Mistakes to Avoid With 70cc Engine Oil

  • Pouring in a full litre. A CD 70 takes 0.6 litre at a change. Overfilling causes oil leaks at the seals and froths the oil.
  • Using car oil. Car oils without a JASO rating can make the wet clutch slip. "Mobil oil" from a car shelf is not bike oil.
  • Using a JASO MB scooter oil. Same problem as car oil, even when the grade looks right.
  • Skipping the 500 km first change. The running-in oil carries the metal from the new engine bedding in.
  • Stretching to 3,000 or 4,000 km because the oil was expensive. The 2,000 km figure is Atlas Honda's, whatever oil you use.
  • Never cleaning the centrifugal filter. Atlas Honda asks for it every 12,000 km; a mechanic can do it with the clutch cover off.
  • Buying the cheapest unnamed bottle. A Daraz listing titled "Motorcycle Engine Oil 70cc, Premium 20W-50" was Rs 620 on 12 November 2026, and its title named no maker. Spend the extra Rs 130 on a known 20W-40.

How We Researched This Guide

  • Grades and capacities: Atlas Honda's CD 70 Specifications PDF, CD 70 Dream Specifications PDF, Pridor Specification PDF and CD 70 Operation Guide (page 22), plus the maintenance record and warranty terms on the CD 70 and Pridor pages of atlashonda.com.pk, all read on 12 November 2026. The PDFs are in Urdu; the figures quoted are printed in numerals.
  • Prices: Bike Markaz's own prices; Atlas Honda's store page for its 700 ml CD70 oil; Wafi Energy's Shell price list (effective 19 May 2026); and Daraz search results for Havoline, ZIC and Atlas Honda 700 ml oils, all on 12 November 2026.
  • Viscosity figures: Mobil Pakistan's Super Moto data sheet, read on 12 November 2026.
  • What we did not find or do: we found no maker's oil grade or capacity for the United US 70, Road Prince RP 70, Unique UD 70 or Super Power SP 70, so we give workshop practice and say so. We did not test any oil, and we did not verify any Daraz seller's claim that a bottle is genuine.

Prices change with stock and the rupee; treat them as a snapshot.


FAQs: Best Engine Oil for 70cc Bike in Pakistan

What is the best engine oil for a 70cc bike in Pakistan?

The best engine oil for a 70cc bike in Pakistan is a 20W-40 rated JASO MA, the grade Atlas Honda's CD 70 specification sheet lists. On 12 November 2026 a correct 700-750 ml bottle cost Rs 750 to Rs 1,060 at Bike Markaz, and Atlas Honda's own 700 ml pack was Rs 860. Avoid car oils and JASO MB scooter oils.

How much engine oil does a Honda CD 70 take?

A Honda CD 70 takes 0.6 litre of engine oil at an oil change and 0.8 litre after an engine rebuild, according to Atlas Honda's CD 70 specification sheet. A 700 ml pack covers one change with a little left for topping up. Pour about 600 ml, then top up to between the dipstick marks with the bike on its main stand.

Which oil grade does the CD 70 need?

The Honda CD 70 needs SAE 20W-40 oil rated API SG and JASO MA, as printed in Atlas Honda's CD 70 specification sheet and Operation Guide. The CD 70 Dream uses the same grade. Any quality 20W-40 with a JASO MA or MA2 label is correct after the warranty; during the warranty Atlas Honda asks for its genuine oil.

After how many km should I change the oil in a CD 70?

Change the oil in a CD 70 at 500 km first, then every 2,000 km, following Atlas Honda's maintenance record on its CD 70 page. Change sooner on dusty roads, in hot stop-go traffic or if the oil turns milky after riding through water. Clean the centrifugal oil filter and screen every 12,000 km.

Can I use 20W-50 oil in a 70cc bike?

Yes, a 20W-50 with a JASO MA or MA2 rating will not harm a 70cc bike, but it is one class thicker than the 20W-40 Atlas Honda lists for the CD 70. It makes sense mainly in an old, high-mileage engine that runs noisy when hot. On a healthy engine, a 20W-40 is the right choice and costs no more.

Which oil is best for Road Prince, United and other Chinese 70cc bikes?

We found no oil specification from United, Road Prince, Unique or Super Power online. Their engines follow the CD 70's layout, and mechanics fill 20W-40 or 20W-50 rated JASO MA or MA2, about 600 ml topped up to the dipstick, changed every 2,000 km. If your bike's service booklet names a grade, follow the booklet.

What engine oil does the Honda Pridor use?

The Honda Pridor uses SAE 20W-40 oil rated API SG and JASO MA, the same grade as the CD 70, according to Atlas Honda's Pridor specification sheet. It takes 0.7 litre at an oil change and 0.9 litre after an engine rebuild, so one 700 ml pack is one change. Change it at 500 km, then every 2,000 km.

What is the cheapest correct oil for a CD 70?

At Bike Markaz on 12 November 2026, the cheapest correct oil for a CD 70 was NGL V-Perf 4T 20W-40, 700 ml, at Rs 750, rated JASO MA2. The closest match to Atlas Honda's own rating was Atlas Honda Engine Oil 20W-40, 750 ml, API SG and JASO MA, at Rs 870.
