Specification: 10W-40, semi-synthetic, API SL, JASO MA2
Providers: Motul, 93300 Aubervilliers / France; www.motul.com
Price per liter (RRP / actually paid): 11.75 euros / 9.80 euros (at Heller & Soltau, St. Michaelisdonn)
viscosity (mm2 / s) at 40 ° C: 98.07; at 100 ° C: 14.87 viscosity index: 159
Additives: (mg / kg) calcium: 1779, magnesium: 8, boron: 8, zinc: 907, phosphorus: 797, molybdenum: 23, sulfur: 5133
Additional tests: BN (mgKOH / g): 7.96; Sulphated ash (wt%): 0.77
Conclusion: The additives are tailor-made for motorcycle use. You can tell that the oil is specifically designed. The very low sulphated ash content is another plus point. The fact that modern oil is also rather cheap (and in practice is sometimes traded below the RRP) makes things even more appealing.
MOTORRAD verdict: very good.
