The right oil?

[GraZer]

As per the KTM 990 Adventure manual, Motorex Power Synt 4T 10W50 is the recommended oil however it is not available here in SA (As I'm told by my dealer). Motorex Cross Power 4T 10W50 is available and would seem like the next best thing and perhaps even a bit better than the Power Synt option. Despite all this the oil being suggested by my local KTM dealer is Motorex Power Synt 4T 10W60 which contradicts what is recommended by the factory. I was keen to change to using Motul 7100 4T 10W50 but that is not available either, but is available as 10W40 & 10W60.

Between Motorex Cross Power 4T 10W50, Motorex Power Synt 10W60 & Motul 7100 10W60 can anyone offer some technical insight as to what would be the best choice for my '10 KTM 990 Adventure R? Right now I'm leaning towards the Motorex Cross Power 4T 10W50.

I really don't want to start a thread of 'What oil do you use'.
