Engine oil Kendall or MOTUL

Years ago I went down the oil rabbit hole and now I recommend motul 7100 4T

Now if you were to get Motul 300V, there would be a real difference there. Higher end “boutique” oils have additives, such as esters that will build up a film on moving parts over time, adding a layer of protection if for some reason you were to lose oiling to that part.

Motul 8100 x-clean 5W40 seems to be the sweet spot, all of my friends drive it in EA113/EA888 engines.

Other Euro brands such as Castrol or Motul are also fine choices

I used Motul and it made shifting noticeably better

I used the Kawasaki 10w-40 for the first year I rode mine, it would always have an odd mis shift here and there. Last year I used Motul 7100 and it made a huge difference, way less shifting issues

If you are considering an oil additive, best practice is to instead use higher quality oil (I like motul) and select one which matches your use case.

I've been using Motul for hybrid cars.

Well after the second oil change in the dealer I decided to look a external place to change my VN oil but I just bring everything and since then I use Motul 5w-30, no issues so far, a bit expensive but I dont care.

Motul 5100 because it makes the gearshift feel nice.
