But I am intrigued by really good quality synthetic oils for engines manufactured since 1990. Anyone else had good luck with synthetic racing oils in newer engines.....?
The BMW folks-especially for the older cycles-swear by Golden Spectro for all applications as they have different oils.

At the shop where i Work, I've been using Mobil 1 15w-50 in many different makes of motorcycles, both newly manufactured & vintage, including Ducati, BMW, Triumph, Honda, Suzuki, H-D, Yamaha, It works very well in 99.99% of all cases.

In case the rare case of clutch slippage I use Mobil 1 Racing 4T 10w-40 which is specifically designed for motorcycles with wet clutches.
