I was running some motorcycle 15w50 300v Motul TEST for about A 1000 miles worked okay. I was over in the new oil analysis section and noted it was loaded with moly, extremely high in comparison to most MC oils which have none yet worked okay in the engine.
I had to pull the clutch for other engine related maintenance, and the clutch plates were clean, but there was black moly type goo inside the basket, not real significant but do I really want this stuff in my clutch basket.
Anyway me and motul test is over, very good shifting and MPG , but black goo I do not like. I change oil about every 1000 to 1500 miles so no reason to see such things like this.
I was a little shocked being this is supposed to be a Group 5 oil, and needing that level of moly (600), but the UOA it stand out as pretty significant.
