Does anyone have any experience using this oil in Ducati motorcycles?

I don't have experience with putting it in Ducatis but I had a cbr 600rr and a cbr1000rr and the bike 100% ran better with this oil. I would recomend it. Everyone says respol oil this and that I agree it is good oil but I also think your paying for a name there.

I believe it is 75W90 gear oil. I use it in my 2012 FXDC, and it is fantastic stuff. Shifts smoother and quieter. I did a lot of research on fluids before settling on this, and have since switched to redline fluids in all 3 holes...very high quality fluids. Hope this helps.

I've done a lot of reading lately on this subject. I own a 2013 Spyder ST SE5. The Rotella T6 is now rated for JASO MA2 (the best rating for wet clutches like on our Spyders). It was previously rated for JASO MA, and previously carried no rating. But the formula hasn't changed. They keep testing it when new ratings come out. Long story short, it's the best priced oil that will work great in our bikes.

If your engine is a 1340cc the K7N 170c will work. I don't normally use or recommend a chrome one simply because chrome holds the HEAT! Don't like your attitude about oil. (Why in the world). Harley spends more money on R & D than you can imagine. This oil is superb. I have been working on motorcycles for almost 40 yrs. I see what using inferior oils will do to a motor. I see the inside of engines all the time. but, do what you want, there are a lot of shops that would like your business rebuilding your engine.

I am not an owner of a Diesel but I have a friend who owns a diesel and from what I know, from reading tons of reviews regarding owners using Rotella T-6 5w-40, in gasoline cars and diesel trucks it's a great oil that meets necessary specs. I use it in all my cars, my Yamaha Virago 1100 motorcycle and even my Piaggio MP3 500 scooter. I have no complaints and I am very happy with this oil.

My husband says get a penetrating oil, WD40 is only a coating, he says a penetrating oil is used to loosen up frozen bolts. they sell it at home depot.He said that the lubricant the shop put on the multi -tool has probably dried up.He's a smart cookie, I'd take his advice :)

WD40 is not a good solution for any mechanical parts as it is NOT a lubricant. It will eventually gum up and cause even more issues. Use a good 3 in 1 oil and you'll be golden.

I use Rotella 40 weight oil found at most Napa stores it's used for Diesel engines mostly also. It recommends that kind of oil in the literature the hammer came with.

I use chain saw bar oil and it seems to work fine but you can also pick up some rotella diesel engine oil

I was following the advise of another Harley rider and some information that I found on the internet. I am not a mechanic just trying something different. So far I only have about 200 miles on this oil in my transmission however have noticed a smother shift otherwise no difference. I am running this in the transmission on my 2007 Road King Classic.

This oil is for use in a lawnmower, generater, anything 4 cycle, I called the company and they told me , this oil performs better the hotter the oil got,and service life is 3x longer on this oil than regular oil, I think it is detergent, Sae 30

I don't recall the weight of this oil. I use this oil in my 2011 Limited and my 2005 Ultra with no problems. It was highly recommended to me by several Harley mechanics that I trust.It should work fine in you 2012 Limited. If you don't like it you can always try something else.

Good question Jack... all I can suggest is you read my review and any reply's I've made to other comments and reply's. From what I can tell, Slick 50 is oil with "magic stuff" in it (the "people" at Slick 50 call "magic stuff" proprietary ingredients). IF you believe in "magic stuff" then buy Slick 50. Just find yourself a good, honest mechanic and get his/her opinion and guidance. btw, don't drink some of the "koolaid" you read here... lot's of "hearsay" and "truthiness" abounds.hth,HiP

It says on the bottle fr use in all two cycle engines. mst bats run 50:1 ratio. It gived 50:1 mix ratio. actually it says it will mix 24:1 up t 100:1 Personally I havent tried it in a boat motor. I use in my gas model airplane engines and weed eater, chainsaw and it is very clean burning. I was using Honda HP2 synthetic and the Royal Purple is much much cleaner. I'm very well pleased with this oil. It's the best I have used so far and have used many over the years since I am a boat and motrcycle tech. Hope this helps with any questions.

Mobil 1 Racing 4T is a good quality oil. Try it and find out if it's good for your bike. If not , you can try Motul 300V.

I use it in my lawnmower and whole house generator. Any air cooled engine will run cooler using this oil. Used in all my automobiles for the past 15 years as well.
