ive been running it for 30 thousand kms and the engine hasnt had it easy thats all I will say and its running perfect. I change it myself every 5000kms. I also used the 15-50 and found it too heavy so have gone back to the 10-40

If you want to run Fully Synthetic it will be fine
but Mobil Super 2000 X2 can be purchased cheaper (Mobil Synth S)

Is Mobil Super 2000 X2 any good?

What other options are available in 10w40 synthetic or semi synthetic without spending $130 on high end Motul oils and the like?
