Shell Engine oil

Shell Rotella (Rimula) 10W40, mines on 165k, 6 months ago I did the O2 Pilot mod and started to use the above oil as it's fully synthetic and made for Buses, Heavy Trucks etc, and so has extremely good cleaning abilities. My oil consumption has dropped almost 4 fold and the cams, rockers, oil filter housing have all been cleaned of the varnish type coating they had too.

Pros: good cleaning abilities, reduced consumption
Vehicle: BMW
Mileage: 165000 km

The oil type is likely fine, but the viscosity isn't. Ignore what the book says, get the 5W30 out of there. The PDs love to eat cams, and running 5W30 makes the problem worse. Me personally, I run Shell Rotella T6 5W40.

Cons: cams love to eat

Shell advance long ride or power you have two choices for fully synthetic trust me dude once you try shell there's no going back castrol is the worst for Royal Enfield and motul is better suited for high compression engines like KTM etc

Pros: fully synthetic, no going back
Cons: castrol is the worst

I run Shell Rotella T6 15W-40 diesel engine oil in my Versys. It has all the ratings necessary for a motorcycle engine and a wet clutch, and it is a quarter of the cost of bike oils.

Pros: quarter of the cost

I switched to Rotella T6 (5w-40 Full Synth) after running Penzoil, Chevron, Castrol, Mobil, regular non-high mileage 10w-30 dinos in that order over 4000 miles. Worst of this bunch was Mobil and Chevron, the HLA tick was unbearable, even right after the oil change.

Pros: engine cleaned up
Cons: HLA tick unbearable
Mileage: 4000 km
