First of all, both products are premium quality fully synthetic motorcycle oils that will provide exceptional performance in all 4-stroke motorcycles. There are a couple of small differences in the products, as part of their expected application and target market segments, but the core high performance additive system is the same for each product.
Mobil 1 for Triumph is a SAE 15W-50 grade product, based on Mobil's European Mobil 1. This product was fully tested by Triumph in-house and therefore is fully approved and recommended as the preferred product for Triumph motorcycles.
Mobil 1 MX4T is an SAE 10W-40 viscosity grade developed for the US market, where a 10W-40 grade is preferred for 4-stroke motorcycles, particularly Japanese sport models
In addition, we offer Mobil 1 V-Twin, an SAE 20W-50 grade, targetted for hot-running V-Twin powered bikes, particularily those that are air cooled.
As mentioned above, all three products will provide excellent performance and durability in any 4-stroke motorbike. However, we offer the different grades to target the needs of different customers and different motorcycle manufacturer's recommendations.
