  Modern motorcycle engines are highly refined and benefit from specifically engineered lubrication. For example, engines that spin up to 10,000 rpm or higher can cause oil to foam, reducing its ability to protect engine components. Motorcycle oils usually serve dual purpose as clutch lubrication and the shearing transmission forces can also reduce an oil’s lubricating ability, leading to notchy shifting. Additionally, touring and adventure bikes are built for long, cross-country trips that benefit from extended drain intervals. And the increased heat generated by compact, high-performance engines can rapidly accelerate oil breakdown, leading to deposit formation that robs motorcycle engines of efficiency and power.
