I know this thread is old and everything, but I thought it would be better to post this here rather than start a new thread.
I found out about Motul 300V from INTP, beginning on this thread I think... Anyway I bought and started using Motul 300V 15W 50 on my CB1100 and I bought the Motul 4T 7100 20W 50 for my 2004 Triumph Speedmaster.
Thing is, though, when I got the bike dyno'd, the tech suggested I change my oil and severely insisted I use Amsoil. Later on I stumbled upon this "A Study of Motorcycle Oils." Published on at least 2 different dates it shows why Amsoil is the BEST and why 2 different kinds of 300V and Motul 4T7100 are all awful.
Now I think the fact that Amsoil made this research makes it suspect, so I didn't just go and throw out all my Motul. I wanted to ask how you guys think Motul compares to Amsoil? I asked the internet and couldn't get a good result. I'm trying to decide what I want to put in my 2007 Triumph Sprint ST.
Thanks,
