Motul - any drawbacks?

[ViperJoe]

Planning on flushing and going with Motul, other than being on
on the road, and finding it available, are there any drawbacks to using it?
Suggestions, words of wisdom?
Thanks

I have been using it for a while in the clutch/brakes with no negative affects. Didnt really notice any difference though.

You shouldnt notice a difference,but the feeling of security knowing that when you apply your brakes under extreme conditions especially on the track they will be there.

Yup that is exactly why I changed to Motul.

This brings up a good point how often should I flush the Motul and put in new stuff?

the resevoir should always remain clear or close

Ahh ok thanks

Is there any advantage to using it for the clutch? Doesn't seem like a high temperature application. I just use high grade standard brake fluid for it.

Although I have never spoken to anyone who has boiled the clutch fluid, the main advantage I see to have it in the clutch reservoir as well as the brake reservoir is that you only have to take one type of fluid for both to the track.

It will absorb water faster than some street fluid so don't leave it forever like a typical street car.
