Engine oil MOTUL or OEM Subaru
I've recently switched to Motul because the Castrol pouring spouts seem to have gone away and Motul's also become more available.
I've put whatever motul 10w40 semi I can get cheapest into my blackbird every 10k miles for the last 140k and it's fine.
In Florida, I use Motul 300v 5w30 for track days and tuning. Otherwise I run motul 8100 (5w30) if I know i'm not going to drive the car hard for awhile. I change the oil pretty regularly because it's a simple insurance. Always send the oil into blackstone to test.
Take it from someone who's owned a gen1 since new. Motul300v full stop is the good shit. 200% worth the cost.
motul 5100 here in thailand is recommended.
Motul 300V is top-tier, smooth, cool, and clean, but pricey. Great if you ride hard.
I have been consistently using **Motul 10W40** engine oil in my Yamaha R15 V3 for approximately **20,000 kilometers**, with oil changes performed every **3,000 to 3,500 kilometers**. In my experience, **Motul has outperformed Yamalube** in both **overall engine performance and gear shifting smoothness**.
Been using Motul 7100 on my Meteor for about a year now Noticeably smoother shifts especially on longer rides.
I use Motul 8100 5w-30. But I've heard the Ravenol is good, I think it's what one of the 86 racing series runs.
I also tried Ravenol's MT fluid, and I'm thinking I'm going back to it after the RedLine.
I avoid the 5 minute drive-thru places. One of them wanted over $100 for full synthetic on my Subaru Forester. Not worth the 5 minutes.
