My 2014 R1200RT LC is due an oil change and I usually get LIQUI MOLY OIL 4 STROKE - FULLY SYNTH - STREET RACE - 5W-40 which meets the spec in the owners handbook
I normally get this from a motor factors at considerably less that the £69.99 being charged by motorcycle parts retailers. Unfortunately my local motor factors no longer stock the product.
Looking at alternatives I came across this oil Mobil Super™ 3000 X1 5W-40 which is sold as a car oil but also meets the spec including JASO MA 2 for use with wet clutches(Lower Table taken from the Mobil one website) and is £33.50 from Eurocarparts or £35 from Halfords for 5 Litres. Might help someone who has a wet head and does their own servicing?
