Description

Elf Moto 4 Tourer 20W-50 is a synthetic oil from the Moto 4 range for four-stroke touring motorcycles covering long distances in warm weather. Its viscosity stays stable when the engine runs hot for long periods.

The oil is rated API SP and JASO MA2; the data sheet cites no motorcycle manufacturer approvals. Friction control prevents the wet clutch from slipping, and the antioxidant additives are designed for long drain intervals.

Typical figures: 16.9 mm²/s at 100 °C and 151 mm²/s at 40 °C, flash point 230 °C, density 873 kg/m³. Available in 1 and 20 litre packs.

Application

Four-stroke touring motorcycles on long journeys in warm conditions.

Worth knowing

The data sheet gives this oil’s JASO code, M033TEL206, as “Officially approved”, and under that code it is entered in the JALOS list. “Approved” is a loose word here: JASO does not test oils, the supplier declares the class itself, and the committee issues the code and spot-checks oils from the market. How to find your own code in the register is explained in the article on JASO MA2 and MB for motorcycles and scooters.

The Moto 4 range has two more 20W-50 oils with JASO MA2, Elf Moto 4 Rider 20W-50 and Moto 4 Cruise 20W-50, but both have API SL. For a motorcycle whose manual names API SP, only the Tourer of the three has the right class. The data-sheet figures differ too: Rider and Cruise have 17.9 mm²/s at 100 °C and a flash point of 208 °C, the Tourer 16.9 mm²/s and 230 °C.
