When I say alternative, I mean alternative brand, no more than that. Still want to run a fully synthetic 10w60.
Pretty sure Motul doesn't make a 10W60 300V at the moment or else I would have jumped ship. The TWS is actually not a bad oil considering the film strength is close to the Motul 300V and much better than other lesser grade Motul oils. You probaby get 5-7K out of one tank of 300V, so it can add up quick.
