Re: Help!! suggesting for KTM Duke 200
IIRC KTM uses motul 7100 which is excellent oil itself. You may try shell advance ultra FS oil for a change.There is no destination, I just want to keep riding.

The oil used in the service center is Motul. Correct ?Originally posted by distance_rider View PostHello guys

That oil is a fully synthetic oil and recommended grade.
You can stick with it unless you have a different requirement apart from regular bikes usage.

Re: Help!! suggesting for KTM Duke 200
Use Motul 7100 20W50. You can definitly notice improved performance, reduced vibrations, smoother gear shifts and clutch operations. The bike feels quick to accelerate and significantly smooth at higher RPMs. It is a bit expensive but worth the price. I generally buy it from Amazon as I get it at a discount. You can get it in a shop or directly in the service center aswell but they sell at the MRP.
I usually buy off from Amazon and ask the service center guy to change the oil in front of me. You can surely feel the difference after a couple of hundred kilometers.
But AFAIK, KTM service centers use either Bajaj DTS-i 10,000 or Motul 7100 20W50 as per manufacture recommendation. If your service center is user 7100 and you are still not satisfied, try using Motul 300V. Expensive option but have heard it is good.

My dealer uses the Motul 7100 itself. And will surely give a try to the 300V. It is a bit costly for my Regular usage but will surely stick to it if satisfied with results.
