Most likely the OP hasn't set up his preferences to see replies and get notifications. If and when they remember to check back, maybe we will get more info.
Here, there, or anywhere. If it was me and I had an actual problem, I'd be watching the thread continuously. If he's legitimate, he does not seem very concerned, or interested. My stalking ass is on here all the time. . . . don't want to miss anything. . . . where's my popcorn? :oops:

I have about 7000km on my Motul 7100 10w40. No issues, as expected with any decent oil. I would have just as well used Yamalube dino oil, but I got a great deal on the 7100. And it's red like cherry cough syrup. Doesn't quite taste the same though.

I have a kit from Blackstone oil labs and I'm going to submit a sample once I hit 8 or 9 thousand km. I'll post my results.

I've also had no issues with Motul 5100 10w40 and Yamalube 10w40 and 20w50 on my previous bike, a 2008 V Star 1300 named Stella. Traded her in with nearly 80,000km on it, never an issue.

Looking forward to seeing the results!
