MOTUL Engine oil

Looks fine to me, oil is relatively cheap, forget all the mileage crap and change it sooner if you are uncomfortable with the way it looks. I change my oil every 2000 miles, or whenever I go on or do heavy riding. I also switched over to Motul 7100 simply because it’s red and I can see exactly when it starts to discolor. A motorcycle mechanic told me the number one reason for engine failure is dirty oil so I started changing it frequently.

Pros: oil is relatively cheap
Cons: oil discolors quickly
Mileage: 2000 km
Part number: 7100

I've recently started using Motul 7100 10w40. Actually I'm due for my first change and should get under it today. It's the only pull I've ever used that actually made a noticable difference in operation. The esters bond and quiet the motor to a noticable audible level. It's designed for motorcycles though and with the unique properties of this ester based oil, I'm taking a chance with carbon build up, but the protection at higher rpms it provides gives me confidence under those conditions, which is where carbon is best loosened at too. Supposedly this burns fairly clean for a synthetic, but IDK. I'm changing at 3k miles to see how it looks. May or may not extend it out, but has felt great so far in this 135k mile motor.

Pros: quiets motor, high RPM protection, feels great
Cons: potential carbon build-up risk
Vehicle: Mazda
Mileage: 4828 km

I'm on my first run of Motul 7100. It's ester based and has truly made a noticable difference in operation. It's made for motorcycles and their higher revs in mind, with the esters actually bonding to metal- not just a strong film. The drawback here is that from this bonding, the oil can be a bit stronger to burn off, but I didn't feel, like mentioned in another comment, that the internal temps on an RE can't burn that off. Just need to be sure to drive it like it's supposed to be, with high rpms. Instantly on first change I could notice quieter and smoother operation. I'm really not concerned about it not burning high enough, but as always, the most important thing is staying on top of oil changes routinely and timely. That is what truly kills most of these motors. In fact, I can't say I've really ever heard anyone lose a motor and say it was because "this" oil was used.. Unless it was something or some grade that shouldn't have been used at all in the first place.

Pros: quieter and smoother operation
Cons: stronger to burn off
