Goofy Footer 536 Posted December 9, 2022 91,000 mile review on a DR650 this thing looks great for the miles. He runs FANCY motul oil and is from Minnesota -- @tntmo converted to Motorex exclusively, what is up with this MN boys and gucci oil ?? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You know I told you that I just raided the dumpster behind the KTM shop for empty Motorex bottles and filled them with Rotella. Just like how I filled an empty Belvedere bottle with Von’s plastic bottle $7.99 vodka and my buddy raved about how smooth the fancy stuff was. I told him the next time he visited, then all of a sudden it was rot gut liquor. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The residual Motorex that clings to the sidewalls of the bottle provides enough protection to save your KTM 690 from Rotella Rot - it's THAT GOOD 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Once in my FZ09, then in a very modded Chevy Silverado, and then in my YZ450. Each time, they produced a distinct noise or performance issue. Clutch chatter on the FZ09, valve train noise on the Silverado, and upper end noise on my YZ450. Never again. Now I run Yamalube in all things two-wheeled, and Castrol in everything four-wheeled that is gas powered. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Back to the original subject, 91K on anything Suzuki is impressive! But a big underpowered single is going to be the ticket. I had 28K on a DR350 and you can still see the crosshatchings when I did its first top end. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Goofy Footer 536 Posted May 29, 2023 I heard a rumor that after @tntmo watched this video he too switched to Motul 7100 on his Rally Bike! This guy is lucky to use ethanol free gas, he doesn’t like the “corn fuel” 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Goofy Footer 536 Posted May 29, 2023 And for those who haven’t seen this video, he has a great attitude on riding. He’s put 85k miles on that bike all across North America. A lot of fun on a simple machine! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
