Comparable to shell advance ultra, can't really find any difference. The mapetrol u using is fully syn with Ester? Really gooding?
Yeah with ester. Smoothest oil I've used so far, acceleration also gooding, but I want to give it another try before making up my mind.
I never tried the fully synthetic Shell Advance Ultra, only tried the semi-synthetic.

Previously the very old bike was take care for service but use workshop oil, most of time use mineral. One time when change the oil, oil was eaten a lot and mechanic told please standby.
A month after the engine died and send for overhaul. Then stick to 2k km interval change + fully synthetic shopee oil. Either Mizu or lately Bold cz price
Last time I had a 2ndhand bike, my mechanic said exhaust come out a bit of white smoke so he recommend I change EO more frequently. So I used mineral oil and I changed it every 1k km. Also got 1 time it ate a lot of EO, turns out the drain plug was leaking, so just change the drain plug. I managed to ride that bike to 100k without an engine overhaul, but I don't know whether the 1st owner got overhaul or not la. Odometer was around 40k when I bought that bike.
