Motul engine oil
« on: July 25, 2021, 10:50:20 AM »
Has anyone tried Motul oil in the 400/4 ? I use Motul in all my modern bikes but thought id check on here before I poor it into my newly rebuilt engine.

Thanks, Daz  :)

In a rebuild motor use a basic 10-40 mineral oil,

Tesco diesel is reccomended.

Once run in,you could go to a posh oil.

Just go with 10/40 mineral diesel oil of the correct spec.
Don’t use modern semi or full synthetic oil better gear change and no clutch slip and the big bonus is its a lot cheaper  ;D ;D
