Amsoil is not top quality. Good at marketing but not great oil. Any Motul or Motorex oil will blow away any Amsoil. I love supporting American made companies but when it comes to oil i've learned that you stay away from American made if you want top quality products

I understand but let me explain how little difference it actually makes on a carbed engine. We took an oil injection rig on straight fuel and the EGTs were at 1,150 and 1152*F after a 30 second WFO pull. Which indicates Kinda rich on jetting and very safe. We then dropped 40:1 in (recommended during break in for 1 tank or 10 gallons) with a 30 Wt Premix oil. You would think you would be considerably leaner or even burn holes in the pistons. EGTs average of 3 pulls were 1,155 and 1157. What the conclusion was is that at...

I want to provide this to all of you guys as resourceful information - that's all I am here for. Not intending on turning this into another oil comparison thread. There are a lot of great oil companies out there, here are just a few highlights on the MOTUL brand specifically. Our ESTER Core patented technology allows the oil to adhere to cylinder walls even when the engine is cold, preventing the wear and tear on a motor that is caused by a cold engine starts (metal-to-metal friction). Think of it as providing a thin layer of oil film on...

I would recommend either our 300V (green) or our 7100 (red) Synthetic product line for your bike. Depending on what brand of bike you have, our 7100 10W40 is a flagship product for us that does really well in both the Dirt and Road segments. If you're on an Austrian bike, then up viscosity to a 15W50 or 10W50 as that is what KTM, Husky, and Gas Gas call for typically. I am attaching a graphic to show you the different tiers of products we have and how they differentiate from one another. If you want, shoot me a PM...

This. I ran 800 at 100:1 for years, many different bikes. (Yes. I hear your gasps. The 'What's the best oil ratio?' fight starts in 5..4..3..2..1). Great stuff. Bikes ran great. No seizures or breakdowns. Ever.

I’ve ran motul for 20+ years. If it looks the same way it went in, they didn’t put enough time on it.

Switching from BelRay. It seems Motul offers more performance and quality all around. The smoother shifting is a big factor for me and longevity I'm seeing from these other guys is amazing.

Later, I'll give a few examples where high dollar oil hasn't always proved to be significantly better if at all. When we were blending and testing oils, we reached out to many race teams who were buying their own 2 stroke oils, and found why they were running certain brands. That gave us Intel on which brands to test our products against. What we found was interesting. Also, many had offered their own knowledge between brands used which we could confirm with tests. Alot of these teams were running 100,000 dollars worth of 2 strokes running 9-12,000 RPM for extended...

That is a ridiculous claim. The only way to know is to take 2 brands,, and send a sample of each to a 3rd party testing company like Blackstone and get a NOA report to compare specs and additive packages. They can even report changes over the years to past samples to see changes. Without a lab report, it could actually be the opposite and sometimes cheap oil is as good or better. For example. I run any of the Warren Oil brands of oil when I can in the vehicles. Why? Why pay a marketing budget? I'll run Quaker...

Thanks for the photo! JMB is a legend and I've never seen this photo before, so I appreciate it. I wish all brands would get on here and answer questions from us users. I'm pretty set on Motul unless someone has any bad feedback. As of now I haven't heard any
