Default Motul 300V

Ok so been through the forums (I have the attention span of a mentally disabled goldfish) and I have found heaps of information on oil ...... I'm scared to say this however I couldn't find much info on the 300V oil from Motul.

I'm ordering 20L end of this week and wondering if anyone has run both 5w30 and 5w40 and their thoughts (preferably anyone from NZ).

2009 Gen2 MPS
12000kms (8k miles)

I've read there is a new 300v coming out, probably soon. Google bob is the oil guy and you could possibly find some UOA's. perhaps get in contact with motul or a vendor for them before you drop the cash on a formula that will be replaced soon. Let us know what and how you like it. Good luck!
