it holds its viscosity a lot better under extreme condisions(heat+power load) with less friction than any mineral type of oils PS i can't spell for shit sorry :roll: :kuda:

I used Motul 5100 for the entire time of my B1 ownership and I must say that it preserved it perfectly well.
I swear by it and will continue to use it in my current E2 model.
Here it comes...... :kuda:

What's the deal with Motor Cycles accessories online ?
I want to look for certain items and they will not let you search the inventory unless you sign up to an account.
Come on !
What if someone doesn't want to sign up ??
