I use it in my '14 1200 GS and it's the best oil for the job, tried Castrol and it's not even close. With Motul she runs much smoother and the gearshifts are much better than on Castrol, or OEM BMW oil for that matter
Pros: runs much smoother, better gearshifts
Cons: Castrol not even close
All my cars i use motul 8100 power so spending price ranging from 300 to 1000.
I run 300v Motul. Much better than Motorex cross power in my bike. Also tried Motul 7100 but that was no better than the Motorex. Have to change oil at 5000km with 300v, but I do that anyway or earlier.
Pros: much better
Cons: have to change oil
Mileage: 5000 km

Only use motul. XCess gen 2 5w40 for the ‘04 wrx. I get oil samples sent to the lab on the wrx and it has consistently been improving results since switching to motul. At first they were worried about the motor and now they say it looks clean as a whistle
Pros: improving oil analysis results, engine looks clean
Vehicle:
Subaru
The Motul oil you’re looking at is pretty similar to any old big box oil, but it costs a ton.
Pros: null
Cons: costs a ton
Vehicle:
Subaru
