you bought your rotella in walmart. I believe you are referring to oil. I know you can get rotella in walmart or anywhere else. As you know rotella isnt the recommended oil for the 1199. blasphemy you are using something not recommended by Ducati. As you know Ducati recommends shell advanced 4t 15w50. Can you find that in walmart? um no. my ducati stealership uses motorex 10w50. My other ducati stealership uses 10w40. I have used castrol in every high performance machine i have ever owned never had a problem.
For me castrol power RS racing 4t 10w40
Blasphemy? - I never was a very good rule follower, example: speed limits? Merely guidlines (Pirates of the Caribbean). I use Mobile 1 15w-50 in my Turbo 911, and Briggs & Straton SAE 30 in my John Deere. I weigh value/perfomance in my purchases in general. If there is an appearance factor, that weighs in too if it dosen't lower performance (DPs in general).
I don't think ANYONE could contribute ANY specific problem to ANY of the oils discussed on this forum, all are a matter of preference, and what study they last read.
