Re: Engine Oils

You can, but it's better to stick to 15w 50 only.

Couldn't find motul 7100 15w50.. so bought 10w50 instead for RR310..

Re: Engine Oils

Just a small query. Can I use 10w50 oil instead of manufacture recommended 15w50 oil?

Re: Engine Oils

Yes thanks brother. Even I dont want to do so and I was very disappointed to know about this.

I will try to change the oil to 300v because that's the only fully synthetic oil available in 15w50 configuration.

Dont want to go for semi synthetic and motul 7100 with 15w50 is not available in my city.

Re: Engine Oils

Don't do that, in my case, honda svc themselves recommended me to change mineral oil in 1500 kilometers. For liquid cooled engine like RR you can use mineral oil for 2500 kilometers at max! Experiment with different oil and choose which suits your engine the most. I think , motul 3000 is made in india. Use imported motul oil like 5100,7100 300v, 300v² etc, they're excellent!

Re: Engine Oils

That's smart. Will give it a shot.

Btw. What do you think about running on a mineral oil for 10000kms. Just want to know your views.

Re: Engine Oils

Change oil yourself, they'll not be able to identify whether it's synthetic or mineral after it goes into engine.

Re: Engine Oils

I asked svc for the same and they said that it will hamper my warranty. Even if the grade is same like motul 300v 15w50.

Re: Engine Oils

BMW uses their own Semi synthetic oil. I did check the G310R forums and found that BMW is putting their own very costly semi synthetic oil.

Re: Engine Oils

Because BMW has instructed them so. You're free to use any oil of recommended grade.
