  This review is about the viscosity: 10W-30

  Group III oil and it is not truly 100% Synthetic, but it is like all the others that say 100% Synthetic and are not PAO essentially Group IV, for the percentage of Group V it promises not even 3% of its content.

  How many oil analyses from Bob is the oil guy, and the oil is out of grade, I wonder why some put it for 6,000km or even more.

  Do a search on a German site and you will see that many oils that say 100% Synthetic on the labels, in Germany due to regulation that Synthetic = PAO only !!! and these are allowed to be called Fully Synthetic release MOTUL 7100 and similar ones with the name Technosythetic.

  Compared to MOTUL 300V Factory Line which have 25%-50% PAO Group IV depending on the viscosity (read a Safety Data Sheet and see CAS numbers, to see what is paid for... in all oils of companies that claim to be the Holly Grail) it is day and night.
  At least these last longer, even if they are Group III/IV/V formulation.

  The average of 15€ / 1 liter for this oil is a joke

  Tested on an old klr 250 which has very worn camshafts and generally the engine is slightly rough. Compared to other oils here, the engine started burning oil quickly and I had to refill very soon after the first change. In terms of sound behavior, I did not notice the engine sweetening particularly, in terms of clutch/gearbox behavior the operation is smooth.

  I am not the best example, but for the price and the name I expected something better. I had a better performance with valvoline synpower, where I did not burn so much oil

  This review is about viscosity: 10W-30, capacity: 4 lt

  The only lubricant in the 14 years that I have the CRF-450R with the RECLUSE automatic clutch and use it on tough trails that makes it work fantastically!!!
  The evaluation concerns only the gearbox and clutch because HONDA has them separate from the rest of the engine.

  I tried it during the summer months on the vf185 and it worked great, in the winter we use the 5th one!!!! The engine won't have any issues, it will just sound heavier at the start

  I put it on a v strom 650
  and it's the worst crap I've put on.
  First of all, the gears shift hard
  and secondly, it raises the engine temperature.
  I've done almost 3,000 and now I'm going for an oil change because it keeps getting worse

  I tried it on my vf125 (10-40) and I have to say that when it's cold, the engine noise is a bit louder and the gears are a bit harder to shift. However, once it warms up, it's fine. Then I tried Castrol Power 1 15-50 and it has better performance, the engine runs smoother and the gears shift better when it's cold. It might be great for other bikes, but for mine, I don't think it worked well

  After years of using Shell advance ultra on my Crypton X, I decided to switch to this specific oil. After two weeks of use, I notice the following:

  Positive:
  - Significant difference in gear shifting. Smooth and quiet.
  - Slight difference in engine noise. Lower and sweeter sound.
  - Packaging with a long spout that facilitates use.

  Negative:
  - The oil takes too long to warm up during startup, even now (late March) when it's not very cold. It requires a considerable warm-up time to prevent the bike from "complaining". With Shell, this time was much shorter.
  - Quite expensive at 14 euros per liter.

  I think it's suitable for summer. However, for cold weather, it's not good, I would say.

  First time I tried them on the MT07 and since then I use it on all the bikes that have passed through my hands, MT09, Tracer 9, etc. The gearbox is smooth and silent compared to other oils.

  This review is about the capacity: 4 lt

  I put it in my TDM900 (10w-40). The noises during morning start-up disappeared. The feel of the gearbox during gear changes seems smoother. Previously, I was using BelRay 15w-50.

  Very satisfied.

  This review is about viscosity: 15W-50, capacity: 4 lt

  It was used for an oil change on a Ducati Multistrada 950 motorcycle. Slightly improved shifting behavior, less engine noise. Fully synthetic oil, meets the specifications.

  The oil takes quite a few minutes to warm up in order for the gearbox to function properly. I didn't have any issues with the Honda equivalent.

  Perfect, and when it warms up it still protects the gears of my klx250. It has 25,000 km and still going strong with the original factory gears, very good

  z750 gen2. New clutch discs and new springs and oil change with them.... the change was made in December so since then until now the bike works in cold weather. When the bike is cold, in the morning for example, every time I release the clutch to start moving from a standstill, the clutch scratches (catches and releases, so to speak, and scratches)... the first 2 or maybe 3 good accelerations with 1st gear, the clutch has a slight and distinct slipping. After that, it improves especially when the bike warms up well.... I suspect that this oil is causing the symptoms given that I have changed the clutch. It's like creating some film on the discs that slip until it wears off from slipping. I hope it doesn't damage my new discs.

  Excellent oil, I have been using it for a very long time on my KTM Duke 125/200 with 10w50 and on my Vstrom 650 with 10w40. The price is a bit high and compared to Valvoline SynPower 10w40/10w50, I didn't see any significant difference.

  The oil simply rocks on a scooter. The gears don't slip. It doesn't skid. It doesn't struggle when the motorcycle is cold. It's fuel-efficient. It covers over 1800 km with daily gas kicks. For me, perhaps the top oil for motorcycles and cars.

  In the Honda innova i, where initially I used the 5100, I thought that the gearbox needed a change the way it was behaving, especially after the first 1000 kilometers, I thought it would stay in my hand. With the 7100, its function and the feeling and sound of the gearbox changed completely. I later tried amsoil, but it didn't have the same effect as the 7100. The 5100 had an oil consumption of about 70ml per 1000 kilometers, while the 7100 has half of that (70ml per 2000 kilometers). After 2500 kilometers and 9-10 months, it needs to be changed, and this is evident from how the gearbox becomes smoother with the new oil.

  Top oil! I changed it on my Varadero 1000 mk3 at 10,000 km (I used to change the others at 7,500 km) and the oil was in excellent condition, it would definitely last another 5,000 km! Also, the first gear stopped making noise (those who have a Varadero will understand) and overall, when it was very cold outside, around 1-2 degrees Celsius, the bike was completely silent when in first gear! The oil is excellent!

  This review is about the capacity: 4 lt

  I thought for a long time that I was crazy and exaggerated because in recent years MOTUL didn't seem satisfactory to me and it seemed like they lost their properties after 2000-3000km! As soon as I saw that based on comments and other people, they have the same problem, I decided to delve into the matter...

  Well, I will write about both the 5100 and the 7100 that I have tried many times!

  ATTENTION TO THE IMITATIONS, guys... there are low-quality MOTUL oils circulating in the market, counterfeit ones, and after a conversation with the representative of Greece, he himself informed me that he does not cooperate with certain specific stores... which means something. An easy tip is always to check the "ceiling" prices that the stores have, and it might give you an idea of which ones are fake Motul and which ones are genuine..! However, because I have checked them side by side, they really have absolutely no difference.

  Now, as for the GENUINE Motul 5100, I have to say that it is a very good oil for everyday motorcycles - engines. Personally, I use them in slightly simpler engines without special demands and techniques or modern ones, as it is a semi-synthetic oil. For more advanced and modern engines, I prefer the 7100, which is 100% synthetic.

  One of the best oils for engines available on the market, 100% synthetic. As soon as the oil is changed, you can feel the difference in the engine's performance and how smoothly the transmission shifts, whether you are driving conservatively in the city or aggressively on the highway.

  This review is about the viscosity: 5W-40

  The oil is very good at a relatively good price. The gearbox is softer and the engine sounds quieter. I have only driven a few kilometers, but they seem fine so far. Now, if they start leaking as some people say, my odometer is broken so I won't be able to measure them...

  It is a good oil but expensive for me. I don't need 100% synthetic oil for my scooter. It's better to use Castrol Power 1 4T 15W-50 1lt or Castrol Power 1 4T 10W-40 1lt. It is a good oil and it only costs 7 euros. Change it every 1700 or 2000 kilometers. Review for a scooter

  I am using it for the first time (Yamaha R3) and I am satisfied. Compared to Castrol, which is my preference, they have the same performance. In the next change, I will have comments on their durability.

  First time I put Motul 7100 10w/40 on my Suzuki address 125 scooter. I always use full synthetic oil on my scooter. The first impression that Motul leaves me with is a smooth gear change and better low-end pull. Of course, the oil will show its performance after 1000 km. I always change oils every 2000 km while using full synthetic oil, along with an oil filter. In my opinion, there is a huge difference between full synthetic and semi-synthetic oils on the scooter.

  Hello, I put it in my Crypton X and after 10 minutes it started knocking. I immediately replaced it with Spectro 10-40 and the engine stopped knocking and works perfectly. Maybe the full synthetic oil wasn't suitable for my Crypton X

  This review is about the viscosity: 20W-50

  Furthermore, I use the Motul 7100 4T 20W-50 1lt on my 2014 Inova ANF 125 and on my other motorcycle. It is an exceptionally good oil with great durability and resistance. It works very smoothly on the motorcycle, the gears shift smoothly without any jerking, unlike when I used a 10-40 oil from another brand. In the island where I live, I prefer the Motul 7100 4T 20W-50 because we have very high temperatures, as is generally the case in Greece. Additionally, it doesn't break easily and quickly like a 10-40 oil, which is more suitable for winter. I highly recommend the Motul 7100 4T 20W-50 1lt
