I used the 4t 10w40 in my suzuki c90t 2005, worked great. this is even better for a cruiser that is air cooled. Works much better than any other motorcycle oil I have used before.

I recently changed my oil with MOTUL 7100 in my 2008 FJR1300 from a syn-blend motorcycle oil. The difference was amazing in just the 1st 50 miles. The transmission is smoother. the engine is quieter, and seems to cool itself better. Anyone out there that rides an FJR1300 knows that the engine gives off a lot of heat, and can cook the rider on" HOT" days. The temps right now in the Northeast are low to mid 90's and having MOTUL 7100 in this engine is a very serious blessing. My gas mileage has increased 2 mpg around town and 3 + on the open road. I have used at least 3 different syn-blend( 50% synthetic & 50% petroleum) motorcycle oils and this MOTUL oil has to be the best. The oils appearance reminds me of DEXTRON II because of its red color. Even so, This oil is leaps and bounds ahead of the rest. I have 1000 + miles on this oil and the bike feels like the oil was just changed. Every oil change from now on will be with MOTUL.

The filter itself seems good, but the washer it comes with makes no sense. It is supposed to come with a drain plug seal, but instead comes with a thin piece of junk washer about half the diameter of the drain plug. I saw an earlier review saying the same thing and hoped the issue had been resolved. I had to order a new seal and I'll have to hope the old squished one will hold up until my next oil change. When the underbody is covered, it makes leak detection difficult, so I did myself the favor of cutting a small drain plug access hole so I can get to it without removing the underbody. I would recommend any DIYer to do this step for sanity reasons. Just measure over and drill a ~2 inch hole.

The rubber gasket for the oil filter housing is included and the correct size, but the washer for the drain plug is not the correct one for the 4.2L V8 motor. In fact, it is such a small washer, it is not for a drain plug at all. The picture provided by Amazon shows the correct sized drain plug washer, but that is not what's included. I sent an e-mail to Amazon regarding this, so we'll see if that gets updated. Perhaps somehow my Mann HU835 1/Z filter kit was a one off with the wrong washer, but I find that highly unlikely. Perhaps the other OEM filters, Mahle or Hengst, come with the corect drain plug washer. For reference, this was installed on a B6 S4.
