Default Motul Fluids???

Is anyone running Motul fluids? I have seen them for years in the sport bike market but not much advertising in performance cars. If pricing tells you how good things are they are right up there with number 1.

RBF600 brake fluid. No problems. With ST-47 pads braking was incredible

I'm about to upgrade to ATE Super Blue DOT 4 (later today--coincides with stainless steel brake line installation). I'll post impressions later. In the meantime, you can check it out on Amazon here:

Biggie, do you have a bigger version of the picture in your profile? That V looks bad ***.

I use it in my bikes and have never had any issues, even at VIR coming into T1 at an indicated 170+. I use it in my V but have not tracked it yet. No complaints. I buy it from my local bike shop.

I bought all mine through Sean at Team dynamics
800-734-9690
He's a great guy and knows a ton about CTSVs. He's also the guy that told me about Torque Master spark plugs, they are awesome!


I haven't used this but I found it online-

My local speed shop/ mechanic carries motul. Makes it easier.

I use to run Motul RBF600 in my brakes and clutch. Last year I stepped up to Castrol SRF and I will NEVER go back as it lasts at least 4-5 times as long for my clutch. I was flushing the Motul every 4-6 weeks and now I flush every 6 months, if that. Also, I flush out of necessity not just because it turns color.

I have never had an issue with the Motul in the brake system, even with many rough days on the road course with r-comps and Carbotech pads.
